Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 20, 2018

Edna has a pretty good grip on Roger. Now the question is, who does she favor for “best chair”?

Oh my, Roger’s comb is flying! The winner has to take on Rufus.

I guess it’s the usual 2 falls, 2 submissions or a knockout.

I think, first thing we need to establish here is, which of them is Mickey?

My money is on Edna, she out weighs Roger by about 60 pounds.

Actually Little Mickey isn’t entitled to the honor, there is a surprise in Roger’s golf shoe in the hall closet.

If Edna has a grip on Roger, and they’re fighting over whether Mickey has earned his place in the best chair…..

the question to me is…. who’s Rufus?

Is he hiding somewhere, some big human or canine….. maybe even feline? … just waiting to battle the victor?

( and please don’t ask me where Victor went….)

Or is this just another case of accidental double naming, which happens a lot around here, what with the Tiki being so popular, and open to all hours?

Come on in…. I’m on shift…. it’s Tuesday so the little monkeys are working….

Let’s just settle it over a friendly libation or two…

or, more likely, forget about it, by that point….

and let Edna and Roger work it out about the dog…

or they can come on down to the Tiki, too,

and let Mickey have his turn in that chair, while they warm up some barstools instead.

But Mickey’s so fine.

…notice who’s on top?

The fighting paused for a moment,and the warm glow of passion swept over them and consumed them like a raging fire. The dog left it just wasn’t worth it.

Mickey has the deciding vote…

Mickey is looking a little dismayed at the decision process.

That’s the best chair to watch Game of Thrones from.

I love this strip, the author is genius
