Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for May 21, 2018

Neal is interpreting the phrase “taking a stand” in a very literal sense.

Oh, Jerry van A is in his nude phase again. Let us hope he sticks with the men as usual. (At least I hope so).

Neal, I don’t know if your Uber driver will stop for you.

Well, at least he remembered his hat. He has to keep his head from getting sunburned.

Oh for cryin… will somebody call the Sheriff!

I thought we put a stop to this nonsense…

Susan is going to go ballistic! She is the President of the Decency in Town and Zither Society: DITZSes.

They actively campaigned against nudity last year, or campaigned for it, I forget.

Maybe this will finally bring a smirk to Bruce’s face (from four days ago).

This isn’t the first time Neal has run afoul of the decency laws….

Sheriff MonkeyBlues fined him back then, but as you can see, he’s only gone further and further.

Of course, the Monkey thinks nudity is natural, and clothes are a human obsession…

I have to remind him to put on his uniform shirt, when he seems puzzled about where to pin his Sheriff badge.

 

But he does understand that we have laws about it…. and he loves defending laws….

and collecting fines, and especially giving out permits….

I just hope he doesn’t decide the solution is for Neal to get a permit.

 

I know Neal does need a hobby….

And apparently, it won’t be carpentry….

Rose…. we’re not for OR against nudity, per se.

We’re for decency….

So it kinda depends on how decent a person looks, naked.

As for Neal…. well…. I don’t want to be critical…..

but….

MONKEY!!!

To bad hitting the escape button doesn’t enable me to unsee that.

Apparently it’s the same day for Amerongen.

…is that a mole?

…and by the way, everybody knows, crack will kill you.

Funny. I can hear Frank Sinatra’s: “I did it my way” playing in the background.

With a sight like that first thing in the morning, who needs coffee?

Anyone have any brain bleach?

He may have stopped ‘thinking about what other people think’…but I suspect they’ll soon be reminding him…

Neal just got through reading Naked Lunch and it occurred to him that…..

It’s causal Friday!

It’s a full moon Monday!xD

Today’s the day Neal makes the acquaintance of the local constabulary…

His body looks very similar to mine. I am too ashamed of the multiple wrinkels to show off!

This must dress all the way down Friday

Geez, I’m going back to the Tiki for another drink.
