Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for July 02, 2012

It’s tiring being at sea all day.

Little Fritz really wanted to be a MARINE, you know…MyArfRidesInNavyEquipment

Yes, swabbing the deck and polishing the brass with your tongue can really take it out of you.

Wow, if that;s “Little Fritz” he must have swallowed “Big Fritz”….Or else Big Fritz is a pony.

Marvin (?) on the other hand, never tires of playing sailor….

especially since Miss Honeybee from the Ballard Five and Dime and Hundred Dollar Store walks right through this park every day at lunchtime.

He’s never spoken to her and never will, cos his wife would be upset, and he loves his wife…but he’s pretty sure Miss Honeybee admires a guy in uniform.He smiles, lost in these pleasant thoughts….

Marg…. I’m at sea every day…. and yeah, it’s tiring.

X — nice job on the shower invitation.Dunno whether you read our comments after you posted it.

His dog went on the fritz? Try tickling it!

Reminds me of the great Arrested Development episodes with Buster and his mother.

I wonder whether Lil Bitzy Mitzy might get Little Fritz’s attention…

Stark white and mellow in his rest, Fritz has stamped his ticket. Now on the other side of the world, safely guarded, in a place of dazzling clarity, its comes to him in a dream…….its a dog’s life, how good is this……

Looks like both Fritz and his Master are on the poop(ed) deck after a long day on the high seas of the Ballard Street Park Pond. I’ll have to invite them on my galleon for a short cruise around the Cove.

Dogsniff, here’s your Salty Dog.My favorite band. Sorry, Frank. My ringtone is the opening guitar riff from Simple Sister, a rock analog of Bolero with a repeating theme that builds to a crescendo.

Bet yawl din’t know Batpug is a Navy Vet…. like teh munkey… weave assailed the sev’n sees…. an weave seed a lotta ports…!!!!

ah wish ah cud still fit inta mah old cracker jacks, butt ah’ve put on afew sense….

You did look like you had a good time at the party. Just know that whatever goes on in The Conch House, stays in The Conch House.

I could not determine what this Fritz was… my Fritzroy is a Timneh parrot (smaller type of African Grey) .

Hi All….Leaving town shortly…. SHOULD have computer access while I’m there on her ancient PC …. but if it’s broken I’ll have to post and do e-mail from my phone… which also may or may not work there….so if you DON’T see me (which is unlikely, but you never know,) I’ll be back Monday.

I’d hate to miss the 4th of July — I have a LOT of hot dogs and Monkey cupcakes and brain bleach to sell!And I’d also hate to miss Shaylee’s shower…so I hope it doesn’t happen.

Meant to say last night….. X_Tech that cracked me up too, about RustyBoy….. oops, that may not be a good expression to use in that context.And Monkey…. my my my.

Susan, alway miss your commets when you’re gone and I have no idea just what BFs computer is like but prob a good one. and if I spend time at daughter’s house no idea if she has any updates (prob only if grand-d insisted). I know both of them use Skype a lot (here it does not work to my satisfaction)..Beviek- only recently added this and a few other strips, so have not seen Capt. Jack- hope to see soon now that I can see all the toons every day (at least until my trip).

Will there be a celebrity cameo this time?
