Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for February 13, 2010

Keep yer pants on, Tony…

Me too, Tony. That is one of the reasons I hate living in cities.

I like his Origami Pants.

“Ooo, have another hit… of fresh air ooo, have another hit”.

Fresh Air Quicksilver Messenger Service

Kind of reminds me of the way Tony Curtis is looking these days.

No shirt, no socks. A man after my own heart.

Welcome, everybody…..I see that Claude and Clara are getting the jump on Valentine’s Day…

in the Feb 13th  2020 “CLEO and COMPANY”

Especially Clara…. cos Claude didn’t remember yet that he was supposed to jump.

I don’t really blame him, this year…. because it’s only February 13th…. Valentine’s Eve?

Check it out on Sherpa….

Clara went to Jared’s… which, looking at the box, and at Claude’s face, made me think it must be a jewelry store…

though I figured it must be just in Cleveland, or more likely, that Nighthawks made it up.

But I googled it, and no…. it’s a real jewelry store…

One of those mall chains… in fact, owned by the same company as Zale’s and Kay.

Not the best laces to buy gems… but then, Clara’s probably not making Claude spring for a diamond.

Oh, look… a heart shaped pendant with a lovely purplish amethyst.

How did Claude know that was Clara’s favorite color….

as well as Nighthawks’.

Happy Valentine’s Eve., everybody.

There must be something in the air over Ballard Street. It might explain most of the things we see day in and day out. Somebody should test the air quality there.

Check your credit card transactions online. You’ll find out where you went and what the damage was. Then you could commit suicide if you wish.

It certainly makes his hair grow. All of it, anywhere.

Is that a lobe or a ring?

Apparently Tony especially likes night air. Cold night air. Shirtless. That “elixir” effect is really your body telling you to “Get the @$^&# inside, Tony!”

Clara is walking away thinking “Oh, Clara, that was so thoughtful of you. You shouldn’t have.”

And replying to herself “It was nothing. Only the best for you. You deserve it.”

Clara is good.

My eyes, my eyes! Put a shirt on Tony!

Good morning Balladeers, Plods and Miss Susan!

I see Nelson Eddy when I look at Tony. Only Nelson Eddy has a Mountie uniform on.

And Clara should have said that it was something she’s always wanted. Oh Claude, you shouldn’t have.

I have a feeling Claude won’t forget next year…..especially since he will still be paying off this year’s gift.

Claude only has himself to blame for this. Maybe it taught him a good lesson.
