Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for January 16, 2022

Russell is on his way to a padded room.

Russel, that is only permitted if you are as rich as Howard Hughes.

Hey Russell…They’re everywhere! Bwaahahaha

He’s an anti German.

Reminds me of a lot of these paranoid Covid people!

Russell watches too much network news

Breath in deep, Russell.

Hey Russell, germs actually float though the air to you.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!”

Russell wonders much too much!

Not if you wear those shoe covers that workers wear in your house after installing new carpet

He used to have only one “noia” but now he has a pair

It’s OK. Someone with a mask will be glad to carry them over. The pandemic is still real, people are still dying, ignorance is still spreading the disease.

Yup.. you need to put the legs of that chair in little pots of water. The walking kind of germs can’t swim and the swimming kind can’t walk.

Agnes can’t believe how well her little observation to Russell keeps him in place, and out of her way.

Good thing he isn’t trying to read THIS book: https://www.cartoonistgroup.com/properties/speedbump/art_images/cg5f9fcf55e5a35.jpg

Another poor deluded individual, paranoid about Covid, I presume.

Russel’s gems are on the bottom of his shoes, now on the chair. Way to go, Russel.
