Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for December 07, 2010

He’ll market the corner on it.

If I had to put all that hardware on just to navigate my house safely…I’d be to tired to get up and run into someone..

I’ll cheat here and hope your internet is working…HAPPY (BELATED) BIRTHDAY STELBEL!

Apparently, Aaron’s been blindsided by life at least once too often. Wait until he makes it to 2020.

AKA “a rearview mirror.”

If I was Aaron, I would leave this task to Furry Frankie. Frankie can suss out stuff with his nose that Aaron can’t even imagine.

The Sam Basset mystery train has solved the puzzle. In fourteen episodes, cause you can’t end on thirteen. It’s bad luck.

PS: The puzzle did not involve the corn dog. Dang! I was so sure.

And there you have it, Cleo fans!

Hahahahaha!

The incredibly unforeseeable… yet somehow believable… solution!

And not even Sam Basset had it totally right…

for the final episode of our murder mystery….

In the December 7th, 2020 Cleo and Company" on Sherpa!

Really good one, Nighthawks!

Nice animation, too, you and Stel!

I’m not going to say anything else about it for a few minutes, so everybody can see itwithout spoilers…

It deserves to be seen fresh.

Back in a few minutes.

Linda Bleah (AKA Grace) may not be culpable, but she is indeed bat-shirt loony. Sorry, but I have to call her that now cause it’s “a thing.” And who was that off-stage voice talking to her? Was that supposed to be her sub-conscious mind? The voices in her head? Does she have company? Vlad, maybe?

And Cleo was in it for the beefcake. Figures. Sam is a dashing basset.

A well placed mirror will do a better job of it.

I can’t believe carpet capers are a thing.

Claude and Clara may be forgiven for failing to see Sam Basset’s charm.

Nighthawks and StelBel, this has been a very enjoyable foray into a different format for C&C. I hope you enjoyed producing it as much as we did reading it. And now, you are free to rerun Christmas strips (and maybe some new ones)! Stel, I don’t think you have done Bass-Elf?

Yes… This is the first time I’ve ever seen Cleo mention any sort of doggie attraction.

Usually she’d be more inclined to notice another dog’s weaponry than his charm….

Sam must be some stud!

And I was NOT thinking we’d be seeing the Cliffords tonight anyway!

This was great.

Still chuckling.

Great focusing.

One mystery remains: Why was it sticking out into the corridor?

Good morning, Ballardeers! Q Date: 269.98533.73 Pearl Harbor Day. Infamy day.

Anyone have a guess at what those coils on Aaron’s halo do?

Yay! Sam was told what happened so he could solve the case. We need another Sam Basset Mystery!

Y’all give a thought to the day. (((((Hugs)))))

I seem to not remember a couple of nights like today’s GIRTH: http://www.comicssherpa.com/site/feature?uc_comic=csbjw

I thought thats what the dogs for.

More!

Good afternoon Balladeers, (((((Plods))))) and Miss Susan!

Hubba hubba???

What language!

Dear dear Nighthawks and StelBel,,

You did one heck of a show these past few weeks! I can’t remember being so well entertained! And, all mysteries end with a twist. So when the TV set with the Clffords watching shows up you heard one long squeal of delight from Montana!

Bravo and Brava!!!!

Yes, loved this! I’m glad the ‘murder’ wasn’t a real murder. This was all so well done. This should really get you on the main page ~ someone is sleeping on the job! Great animation and loved the ending, too. Thank you!

The series was wonderful. Today’s strip was the best (I love ending on a high note). Very clever and very well done.

I have a little problem with the carpet being in the hall way. On the November 6 episode, the first one, the carpet appears to still be inside the room.You can see the line next to the door. I don’t think she did it. She’s [probably just trying to get publicity. I think the guy who did it is the one that is being deleted on the 17th of this month.
