Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for July 11, 2024

looks like the perfect bait to catch a whale…

He’s dressed like a fishing lore. Yawn. Oh, it’s SHARK WEEK!!!!! Hehehe.

Ted pauses to bask in the lakeside limelight

What lake is that, Loch Ness?

Most are very surprised that there is a MRS. Ted Spivey

But the sales of eye bleach just peaked at the corner market.

You can imagine what it’s like for the rest of us. He just stands there for hours. Meanwhile Mrs. Spivey is in the Bilge bar having her 9th Rum Smash. That’s it, " move over Mrs. Spivey" there’s 22 of us.

Alluring

… and it’s the dregs for Mr. Spivey.

Ted “Walleye” Spivey is an admirer of Moontail Jigs.

And therein lies a tail…

“Hook ’em and cook ’em”, thinks Mr. Ted Spivey. “Book ’im” thinks Mrs. Ted Spivey…

Interesting outfit.

Sometimes I worry about Jerry’s mental health. ;-)

Gin.. keeps Mrs. Spivey in a stupor. Summer only drags because Amazon deliveries are spotty on Ballard St.

Kinky squared.

Take a battery for that shark, Ted!

On the other hand Mr. Ted Spivey has a ball………..

Ted has taken well to his latest ketamine infusion.

She finds herself in a-dock-ward situation.

kinda adds new meaning to the phrase "Gone Fishin’ "!!

she finds it a drag that ted’s in drag…? ☺

Meanwhile Ted had better hope they don’t drag him behind their boat as allure, I mean a lure.
