Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 26, 2024

At least he’s quiet about it.

I know that feeling. At least he’s not holding in his screams with that pillow.

Lily is rather smug about letting the air out of Rudy’s plans for a weekend fishing trip.

What’s the thing that looks to be in his hip pocket?

Rudy…is a dip.

Rudy is mostly living his life on the sofa.

Some would say he’s a couch potato.

In yet another Walter Mitty moment, Rudy is riding this road astride his magnificent Harley, decked out in leather, with the wind blowing through what’s left of his hair…and his mind.

What’s really strange for me is the sight of someone actually reading a news thats on newsprint.

Good morning Balladeers!

He just can’t believe what Giuliani has done to his namesake.

Unfortunately, to Rudy, it’s the Bonneville Salt Flats and he’s picking up speed…

Pretty sure he would rather be fishing, he’s been down that road before and it’s boring.

Is Rudy possibly having a bad morning after?

It’s called coasting, enjoy it while you can!

Inflatable pillows take forever and are exhausting, if not IN-hausting.

Someone’s suffering a long, dark teatime of the soul.

He’s watching the “anti-depressant channel” which consists of tranquilizer ads. They used to be short ads but now the are the length of informercials (just to get all the side effects mentioned).

rudy’s set the controls for the heart of the sun… ☺

It’s no longer undulating if it’s flat. Just saying.

Good night, Ballard Dears.
