It doesn’t take any thinking. He is a pain in the buttocks ! And if he activates that loud speaker, I will happily activate a full volley of canon right bake at ’em !
Hmmm…. I’m thinking Neal’s thoughts include some contemplation of possible retaliation.
He’s thinking that if he starts being a pain in other people’s behinds, chances are someone will, in turn, be after HIS…So he has cleverly designed some backside armor out of thin, but nonetheless solid, steel plate…and slid it down inside the posterior of his pants.That’s why they look even more rigidly geometrical than the usual Ballard St. style… He bought a pair of the local angular trousers and then added steel.
The hard part was making the plates long enough to cover his…. vulnerable region…but not so long the tops stick out of his waistband when he sits down.
Meanwhile….Did everybody go home?Red, did I miss our nightcap?Bri?Bev?X?Linda?I guess I even missed the usual night owls.pcolli, if you’re still here…. I just checked yesterday…you might be right.Anyway…. I had to do a lot of stuff tonight before I could even catch a bus here…some work on my computer, a little plumbing problem….plus the comics neighborhood is pretty big and I didn’t get around it last night… But I always have to stop by the Tiki, if I’m in Ballard County overnight, cos I promised the Monkey I’d check on the night crew if I can.Wow… lotta yak ribs got eaten.Glad you guys like ‘em when I do ’em too.(Of course, I AM using he Monkey’s secret rub, I can’t deny.)Too bad Fenton is off tonight… I’ll have to wrap up some of these huge bones for him and stick ‘em in the fridge.He won’t chew bones when he’s here…a little embarrassed, you know.Aw….you little guys make cute bartenders.Could one of you get me a Red Tail, please.
Actually that works if you have a neighbor like I used to have that played Mexican music so loud all the time in the day that you could here if for 4-5 houses in all directions. He would never turn it down no matter how many times he was asked. I set up a piezo alarm horn at the corner of the yard and let him listen to that beep constantly every 2 seconds for about 2 days and he finally got the point. He keeps it turned down now.
Had a guy in the Army while in Alaska. He loved Bye Bye Miss American Pie by Don Mclean. Played it on repeat 8 track constantly day and night. Would get all PO’d if you told him to turn it off. This was a open bay environment so there was little to no privacy so you were expected to be respectful of others.One night finally had enough. I went all ninja on his butt. Snuck under a bunch of bunks armed with insulated wire cutters and a big magnet. Snipped that power cord off at the back of the player. Took the tape out rubbed that magnet all over it. Put it back in. He woke up in the morning and thought mice had chewed the cord. So he bought a new player and put the tape in. Nothing but static. He never did figure out what happened. He went through three players and several tapes before I finally got into a two man room out of the bay area.So this issue here could be resolved in a similar fashion. The Flying cats could air drop a few ninja Little Miss High Maintenance to disable the device.
Here I sit all broken hearted, Fenton’s gone, yes, he departed….heavy sigh…Bartender, another Bloody Mary please and Sir, if you will, keep the yak ribs out of sight…Fenton dearly loved them and the sight of them makes me cry…ah well, such is life…there are other dogs peeing against water hydrants ya know…sniff, sniff…(but they arent nearly so regal in their bearing)…
Yesterday On Ballard Street:Storm, you sure 40 #’s is enough to feed the crew @ The Tiki a couple of times? Cuz, you know if we turn Lingquist loose in that kitchen, we are all gonna be drooling worse than even Chet or Bob, or even my sweet baboo Fenton…-——————————————————————————-(Opening Theme Music)……fade in……well, I could give you 75 tons more. But that’s my limit! I have turkey’s to feed you know!
I just realised while Skyping with my lover last night really late that it IS just 2 weeks until I’ll be with him again when he picks me up at the airport ;-D No wonder I’m getting really anxious!
btw…there is a link to the right side of this page that says “How to keep score on Ballard Street”…thinking it might be a book that explains the deep and not always harmonious ties to all our neighbors on B.S. I clicked on it and opened in a new window….sigh…its not a book (my favorite things in the world)…its just a link to B.S. on creators dot com….I think I get (and give) enough BS here…er…seriously, I meant B.S. here….@Dazzlol, you go girl!…I suppose I should say, you are ready to go girl, but in any event, … You Go Girl!!
The above is in reference to the massive metal hearing aids of happyathome (noicantspell)’s picture.I still got dibs on the air horn.I can be so annoying.
@ VeteranI can be so annoying.Never Sir, you may have been one of those I got out of my lawn chair for on the Fourth of July when the Veterans passed by in the parade, or one of the Viet Nam Vets that made me cry, in the open, on the street…and was not ashamed of it either…so young still, they spoke to all of us…and still do…in small town parades everywhere, but that particular one was in Dumas, Texas…It comes back to me at odd times of the year, simply because I knew most of them and I wonder how they are doing now…Danny, who is missing his lower legs, and Thomas, (dont call him Tommy) who lost his arm…Its why I contribute to the Viet Vets of A, and yes, that was our war, just like WWII was our Dads…Thank you for your Service Veterans and all who have served, and folks, google Christmas Cards to Servicemen, and follow through…it’ll make you feel good!
Linda, Truffles and Pralines sound great but I had my ration of Green & Black’s chocolate for tonight (my fav is Expresso, followed by ginger which is only 60%).
My doctors today decided not to do my last vein treatment before my trip and even advised me against se* – yeah, SURE! I have never taken BP readings right after but I’d be willing to bet they’d be better than now! This time I’m taking the BP thing with me as well as my “Resperate” which I’m using to try to be more CALM.
Oh my…Rodney,… a home boy even…ummmm…..how does an English play bo…..er, Tawainese…(gosh, I gotta learn to spell Asian)…er, how does an Oriental/Tawainese play boy, (gosh theres that word again) good guy who helps good girls go wrong, get along on B.S.? My guess? He wing/wongs it….so, sue me, I am so pc incorrect…..
Just watched Beer, Clothes back on and Chicken- such fun. My lover is like the chicken too and I just barely make a healthy BMI for my 5’. In spite of my age the “clothes” is no prob as I found years ago that he IS the only man for me.
gawl darn it,…Essex, of course we have heard of Rodney…Carrington even…I do hope your night is cool and makes you shiver under the covers until the heat envelopes you and makes you sleep the sleep of Rip Van Winkle or the sleep of the Elves,,,(and they sleep a long time!)…hibernate my friend and come back to us. refreshed, replenished, and loaded for bear!

I watched a few more with the blue shirt and was totally LAUGHING! Last one was “married”- now I know why my new son-in law was happy to see my lover and I (avatar) at their reception in July. He was telling me his first wife was very cold, so I guess my daughter’s 3rd may be the charm ;-PI think he is happy to see our relationship, as he texted me from their bed the day he made his last trip back to Scotland. We all use Skype a LOT.I had to reboot because I think cable co is messing with me because I refuse to “bundle”. I pay plenty for digital TV and internet- no reason to change my land line phone and just bought an “emergency cell” on Verizon.
