Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for November 25, 2023

The ladies are being sassy. It’s smart to keep his distance.

I don’t blame Bob, when Maggie and Fifi get into an argument it can get very messy very fast.

he, apparently, lives in a jungle

He’s perfected the art of becoming two-dimensional.

Slip sliding away.

If Bob can manage to side-step pressed against the wall by this cacophony going on he may have a good read and a smoke.

Can’t blame Bob for moving on – they’re arguing over whose turn it is to nip at him next.

I don’t blame him.

“Flight or Flight” – The Tao of Bob…

Bob enjoys having avoid in his life.

Bob goes out of his way to get out of their way.

Good morning Balladeers!

When it comes to Scruffy, Bob’s groin scars — and his continuing high-pitched voice — remind him of the better part of valor.

Gladys & Fluffy are at it again.

Wise move Bob, this could escalate and you don’t want to be anywhere near that.

Note Bob’s carefully chosen camouflage, blending in with his surroundings is line one of defense. Line two, if he is discovered, he rolls the newspaper. Maggie and Fifi hate that.

B9b is slipping through life unnoticed.
