Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 17, 2023

Don’t just stand there, Joyce! Kern the letters “O” and “A”.

I hope that Jerry got permission from the pulley club to use that rig, other wise he may find his front steps hoisted up in his front yard shade tree some morning.

Jerry is just dotting the i.

Well Joyce, when you do it on this scale (literally), it does tend to make the hours fly by.

he should be thankful for not speaking German or Russian – he’d need a forest for his new hobby

Oh poop! He needs to stop for a vowel movement. The ‘i’ is too close to the ‘A’.

Joyce promised to be his consonant companion; but she stopped short of taking wedding vowels.

Nobody has asked yet what “o-A-i” could possibly be part of.

Are they wasting all these resources… wood, hardware, time, plus Joyce’s last bit of patience and hours of valuable borrowed pulley time…

On some random typography, with no neighborhood benefit?

“O, A i! Better not try a P or a Q just yet!”

It’s not the typography Joyce, it’s an excuse for Jerry to work with his true love.. pulleys.

Looked up the OAI acronym, you can take your pick.

Unless he is trying to have a “vowel” movement of some kind.

Joyce never her husband was looney!

“Old school” was definitely more challenging. :)

Good morning Balladeers and Miss Susan!

Joyce was unaware that Guttenberg now lives on BS.

The “Neighborhood Consonant Watch” patrols have increased in frantic anticipation.

Don’t nod off now Joyce or you’ll look like Saturn rolling down that hill

Joyce ponders the outcome of this latest buffoonery.

I’d like to buy a vowel.

Jerry just never knew Joys wasn’t that type of girl…
