Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for September 26, 2017

Aaaah! The Ballard Street Mouse Club essays forth again. I wonder if they’ll make it to the Tiki Bar this time, or will Scooter be waiting for them again?

Off to the rat race.

Uh oh, looks like some one is having another one of those rowdy mouse parties.

That’s been a mouse problem on Ballard Street for some time now.

Looks like a houseful of these meeces behind the door. " I hate these meeses to pieces."

You should see Jeffrey, Jr. He’s a chip off the tip.

C’mon. Seriously? Since when do mice wear gingham shirts?

The Ballard Street Rodent Club is innocent, honestly, it is…

and it’s a lot of fun!

I’ve been a member for YEARS!

Somebody taught Scooter to chase us….

I’ve been trying to show him it’s OK.

At least the last time he only bit off the tiniest tip of my tail.

That Python video is pure sensationalism….

Come to our next meeting and see.

Please bring some peanut butter, or some nice cheese.

This is what comes of thier wives contstant " Are you mice or a man? " beratement. Seems they have made up their mind.

The are more mice in the doorway. You’d think one of them would wear a block of cheese.

Ballard Streat’s iceberg is mostly tip.

Be aware… you might get some cat calls.

Someone needs to get a bigger cat.

If Jeffery is the tip of the ice berg, I’m hoping for global warming.

Ahoy Ballardeers !

The ole Capt.‘s back on limited duty, so I’ll be able to check in from time to time. I’ll know more Thurs. when I go back to the Doc.

I’ve missed y’all, although, honestly, I haven’t missed not watching t.v. or the using my computer all that much. Same-o, same-o, with the world slowly going to pieces – except for, thankfully, Ballard Street where we’ve already fallen apart and jigsawed ourselves back together again….I’ll be back at the Tiki real soon and drinks will be on me !

Anyone remember Soupy Sales doing The Mouse?

“Now it’s time to say goodbye to all our family…. M-i-c-k-e-y M-o-u-s-e….”

…

Must. Not. Bop.

Jeffrey sometimes gets invited to the Elephant Club. Visibility isn’t so good in those heads. He goes anyway to see them get upset.

Shouldn’t that be “tip of the miceberg?”

Like a rat in a maze

The path before them lies,

And the pattern never alters

Until, the rat dies.
