Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for August 26, 2016

Since Trevor’s wife Thalia, owns everything. (big inheritance) poor Trevor is reduced to 6 square feet.>space> He’s happy, only you just don’t know what he is doing in there.

Thalia should at least allow him to have a big “T” on his flag.

It only counts if he has water and mineral rights.

Bev, I am glad to see that you are taking care of your potassium deficiency with ample nanners. Those leg cramps should be a thing of the past.

Trevor has a lot on his mind.

Oh my, Bev!One night, Fenton’s off, I’m really late and look what happens…and where’s the Fireman???

Little monkeys, why did you keep serving her?Oh… the drive-through?Really?She was driving??

And then the Fireman carried her in here and laid her on the yak rugs.I see.

OK…. Bev?

Let me give you a ride home in Elvis.

Yes, he’s a nice dog car…. he doesn’t bite.Honest.No… no more Brass Monkey.

Tomorrow. You can have more tomorrow. At home.

Anyway…the problem with Trevor’s little claim is it’s not ON the property where he lives with Thalia.She’s very good about sharing the house, to live in…But she won’t let him claim a bit of land for his own….

No, this 4 square feet (approximately) is on the Huggleston’s front lawn, near the sidewalk.Trevor claims it by prescriptive right…he has stood on that spot every morning for 30 years, to discuss the local news with Roger Huggleston.

For some reason, Roger has stopped coming out to talk to him now….but Trevor still has to occupy the spot till his prescriptive deed is recognised.Hmmm… he wonders… why in the world are Thalia, Roger and Monica all standing on the porch…. looking his way…and discussing something?Oh… Monica has her cell phone out.Who is she calling?

That’ll last until the dog claims it.

I wonder if I can declare the area three feet around me a mobile micronation. I’ll call it the Empire of Coyoty. I could make my own laws and not pay taxes. But then the local governments could declare war on me. I’ll just tell them I have nuclear capability. (Doctor Toon’s coffee counts, right?)

I’d prefer to take it as a warning that Trevor has placed explosive little surprises about the walkway and hie myself to the other side of the street…

The top bid on both of the vans went up by $50.I have hope.The auction ends at 5:00 this afternoon, (pacific daylight time) and i will be home at that time.Same tactics as last time, except that I have two targets to shoot at.Hopefully, i will hit one of them.

@ Happy good it is closing on a friday. I hope everyone is too busy to bid. keeping-a-good-thought-4-U

Beviek sounds like she may have found this recipe:

Christmas Cookie Ingredients:

1 cup of water 1 tsp baking soda 1 cup of sugar 1 tsp salt 1 cup of brown sugar lemon juice 4 large eggs 1 cup nuts 2 cups of dried fruit 1 bottle Jose Cuervo Tequilla

Sample the Cuervo to check quality. Take a large bowl, check the Cuervo again, to be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink.

Turn on the electric mixer…Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl. Add one teaspoon of sugar…Beat again. At this point it’s best to make sure the Cuervo is still OK, try another cup … just in case.

Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried! fruit, Pick the frigging fruit off floor… Mix on the turner. If the fried druit gets stuckin the beaterers just pry it loose with a drewscriver. Sample the Cuervo to check for tonsisticity.

Next, sift two cups of salt, or

something. Who giveshz a sheet. Check the Jose Cuervo. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink. Whatever you can find. Greash the oven.

Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over. Don’t forget to beat off the turner. Finally, throw the bowl through the window, finish the Cose Juervo and make sure to put the stove in the dishwasher.
