Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for December 29, 2024

An egghead?

from the look of it – he lost something so…. un-precious

Nelson is not so much trying to find himself as he is trying to find out what he is.

First question to the R.A.? What does a research assistant do?

It’s nice to have someone to do the grunt work while you can save yourself for the more important tasks. It’s also nice to have someone to have your back – to cover you from the rear.

Nelson kind of looks like Alfred Hitchcock with a hangover.

TODAY’S LIMERICK.

There was a young private detective,

Who’s service is often selected.

At Nelson’s request,

He conducted a test,

He said ‘Root Kill’ is very effective.

Nelson must have money to waste.

Nelson has no friends……..

Nelson googled “RA” for his rheumatoid arthritis, and decided “what the heck”.

I think Jerry Van Amerongen has got wise to my daily limericks.

…l mean what rhymes with Nelson???

Well, son, Belson rhymes with a hard sell, son.

Assistant??? I wonder what they are researching!!!

Nelson needs to find a life.

Good afternoon, Ballard Dears!

Pay-per-peek???

Good afternoon Balladeers!

nelson can use all the help he can get…
