Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for June 14, 2010

First he needs to moon Martha.

Looks as though he’s getting ready to rip one.

Nah, he just wants to be kick started…

He’s waiting for his second wind.

Maybe he’s trying to figure out how those spindly legs can support all his bulk.

It’s gonna be a loooong day if he needs a break before leaving the front porch.

He’s got to say goodbye to the ants first.

Don’t delay, Alfred, Martha is warming up a SKITR (Swift Kick in the Rear).

Back in Cleveland, Claude is employing his musical skills to avoid a question:

But Clara is up to the challenge!

Boomers, if you want to subject yourselves to remembering this song:

Clara had a nice little comeback tune for Claude’s song.

And what dip he is.

It’s more of an adventure.

Avoiding a straight answer is a positive answer. Bad boy, Claude.

Rhetorical question, but still…

Welcome, Cleoites….

We’re commenting on the

June 14th  2020 “CLEO and COMPANY”

 

Read it on Sherpa, as Dennis notes….

and comment here, as we do every day, on the 10-year-old Ballard Street.

 

Now I have an earworm, thanks to Claude…. or maybe thanks to Dennis… (gee, thanks, Dennis.)

Can’t blame Cleo…. she’s not saying anything… not even coming up with any thought-balloon snark.

She’s either very sleepy, or uncharacteristically restrained, considering the opportunity for a well -deserved potshot at Claude.

The “dip” with the prominent “pot.”

 

Anyway… trying to make room in my ear for a _different song…

Cos I have a note on my calendar … wish I’d seen it yesterday….

To tell me to sing this tonight:

(Please…. everybody feel free to join in…)

 

Happy Birthday to you…♫ ♪ ♬.

Happy Birthday to you….♫ ♪ ♬

Happy Birthday ♫ ♪ ♬ deear PERKYCAT!

Happy Birthday to yoooooo….. ♫ ♪ ♬

 

Your dinner’s on me at the Tiki, Perky… though if you have other plans for tonight….

which I hope you do… you can claim your Tiki Bar dinner anytime in the next few days.

Fenton already knows.

Plus, of course, a beverage of your choice.

And there’s a free beer or nonalcoholic beverage for everybody on Cleo…

so we can all raise a glass to Perky!

Many happy returns!

My Favorite Part™ was ♪ DING-DONG? ♫

 

P.S. to Perky – May your DING-DONG be RAMMA-LAMMA today!

Happy Birthday, Perkycat. Wishing you a great day full of whatever you like best.

I know where Clara wants to shove that empty milk carton, and it ain’t gonna be in the trash can. Happy birthday, Perkycat. Hope you get plenty of presents.

Duet. We’ll fix it in post.

GOOD MORNING BALLARDEERS! Day 250,393. Stayed a little too long outside yesterday painting boards for my great grand daughter’s play set. Got a little pink. The second coat should be faster, but it’s sooooo nice out.

Y’all be safe out there. (((((HUGS)))))

Happy Birthday Perkycat. Go out and paint the town red (while maintaining a safe social distance and washing your hands often, of course).

Happy birthday Perkycat!

Happy Sunday Balladeers, (((((Plods))))) and Miss Susan.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PERKY!!! Hope you will be able to enjoy lots of special treats today!

At least Claude had the smarts to laugh at Clara’s pun. I, too will be singing the Ramma Lamma Ding Dong song all day. Thanks, Nighthawks. :))

Hoppy, hoppy, hoppy Birthday, Perkycat! See ya later at The Tiki. Snickerdoodles on me!

Happy Perkycat Day! Hope your birthday’s perky!

Happy Perky Birthday!
