Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for October 11, 2018

I see that Gary is off his meds again.

How is today different than any other day?

Gary, your red shoes clash with your spots!

I don’t see any eye holes, I wonder how he navigates.

On days when Gary puts on one of his costumes, the other personalities take over. The one wearing the tutu is much less aggressive, although just as single-minded and determined.

Spotosaurus?

Well that should be obvious, he’s wearing his red socks!

Howdy, MUDD. I hope you are keeping well.

Sheriff MunkyBluz: Please keep your handfuls to yourself.

Oooh, that looks like fun!

Except maybe for the no-eye-holes part.

You’ve heard of a sabre-tooth tiger?

Well, this is a saw-tooth giraffosaur costume.

I want one, with eye-holes… and armholes would be good too.

Do I go to Stel’s Costume Annex or XTI?

BTW…. I do check the Monkey’s profile…. but he hasn’t said anything for 19 days.

Hi, Monkey!

Mudd too!

And Dogsniff, if I thought you ever read these comments.

Hope you’re all OK.

He’s just being himself.

Nothing can stop Garyzilla.

Tsk tsk. Gary and his new 3-D printer.

And you thought T Rex had small arms…

if there are any FLA panhandle Balladresidents. God bless! Having just gone through florence, ourselves we know your pain somewhat.

He is going to be a handful.

He is going to try to get a mouthful.

Good morning Sheriff.

He has no way to see out! He’ll walk off the sidewalk and fall into the street!!

Gary’s costume don’t usually give me any moments of concern except when he is wearing his Van Johnson socks with it.

The Gene Kelly whites are o.k. but those Van Johnson reds spell trouble.

T. Gary?

yep— especially with no eyeholes

Gary’s just rehearsing for Halloween. He wants to make sure he doesn’t overlook anything. Like arms, or eye holes, or color coordination, or ventilation…
