Oooo, a nasty moonlit night. What is waiting to jump on Neil’s back as he walks along? Maybe a monkey, crazed on sour and fermented yak milk…

I’m worried about what other scary things Neil is doing out there in the garage.

But the painted mural would remain…
I think he just likes scaring himself.

You’re not going to make a big scene, are you Neil?
Linguist said, 12 months ago
Neil has a lot of hang-ups.

To all the Ballard Street Irregulars: Maintain your watch and keep filing your reports. I shall return in a few hours.( The Good Lord willing and the creek don’t rise! )

Well you’re right. Too much to hope for that he’d paint a closed door. I’m recalling a Stephen King book about someone that painted scenes and the guy would enter and and be part of the painted scene. Can’t remember the book name, I’ts too late to look it up, shoulda been in bed 30 min. ago.

After tomorrow, I’m going to be gone till Wed. Taking my mother on a trip to visit with relatives.
If we have another fire while I’m gone, StelBel is in charge because she’s the one with the fireman’s costume!
And Marg will assist her because she can handle the garden hoses.

Mrs. B, could you be thinking of the Wild Wild West episode where Dr. Loveless paints scenes you could step in to.
If you’re not going be to be here, why don’t you post your comments now. Like predating a check. Then one of us (StelBel) can paste them in to the appropriate day.
After all, the cartoonist submit their comics in advance so why not the comments.

Morning everybody — I seem to get here when everyone goes to bed…
Funny, Dogsniff!
I guess he already did.
His wife is worried about him…. but she also worries about what their dinner guests would be thinking if she said “I have to go out to Neil in the garage.”
x-Tech… what a great idea!!
I have to be a bit more scarce off and on during the next week….
I mean, I’ll be around, but trying to turn my night-owl existence around so I can get up at 4 AM on election day.
That’s the time I often go to bed, but I can’t stay up all that night and make it through a 15 or 16 hour day at the polls.
Maybe I could just post a whole list of comments and someone… how about you. X? … could just paste ‘em in wherever appropriate through next Tuesday.
Then I wouldn’t be so tempted to stay up late!
Beviek — if I mis you, have fun.
Well, I WILL miss you.
We all will.
Monkey…. wherever you are….
sorry I slept through your request for sandwiches but there’s still plenty of turkey in the freezer…
and boy could that salon use a hyped-up monkey to help get it back in shape….
even if you’ve given up caffeine I’m sure you have plenty of bounce.

Well, if your garage has a doorway into a multi-dimensional universe, you would be scared too (similar to a Clifford D. Simak novel).
