Today’s classic A&J is from January, 2007. I don’t believe I’ve taken the time to thank all of you who purchased an A&J tee shirt over the holidays and since. Thank you! It was a very interesting experiment, and I hope everyone was satisfied. Wear them in good health! The shirts *ahem* still are available through this site exclusively, and there will be more designs this year. That’s the plan, anyway. I’ll never catch up to my younger peers, but as merchandising and public appearances become more mainstream in the profession of cartooning, I will try not to be left in the dust. Thanks for your support in this effort!

Symply: It’s always good to hear from you. That Valentine’s buffet menu sounds wonderful!
(Everybody else: Click on his name and check out his website if you don’t know what I’m talking about.)
Thanks Ruth Anne it does sound wonderful. And you answered. MASSACHUSETTS. Listening to Puccini and Turandot on Sirius from Met.
A song I was reminded of by a video on FB.

If I can find the video, I will put it here too, so you can make the connection.

Debbe 😉 I could dance to this. In fact, I have.

Did you see the note about the 15yo that was suspended because
he carried a classmate having an asthma attack to the nurse?
He left the classroom without permission. May have saved her life.
The nurse was not responding to E-mail.
OB: Do you have a URL for that? emb
Here’s one for that story:

Thanks TR
This article did not have the rest of the waffle the principal spouted.
Good morning Villagers….
This beats all…..

I’ll lay you odds that if it does go up, it won’t stay up. Dubois County is mostly of German heritage and also the largest beer consumers per capita in IN…you don’t want to mess with Dubois.
Does Peta not realize this is a livelihood to many families, and that is how they make their living. Indiana is 3rd largest producer of eggs in the country…show me a Peta member who has not eaten an egg, and I’ll show you a badger….sneaky little critters, they are.
GR 😉 clicked on the link of A&J you posted….scrolled down to look at comments….and guess who was the second poster…..Trucker Ron!!!! Been around for awhile haven’t you TR, what a great testimony to JJ.
Getting more eggs every day from my girls….I’ll probably pack 4 skids today, and my biceps are coming back. Checked mouse traps yesterday. We’re supposed to drown the little rodents in a water buck, give me a break. If I find a live one in the trap (it has a window on the lid) I shake it up to disorient the mouse, grab the tell and make contact with its head on the floor and throw it in the pit. Cruel? NO, I could just throw it in the pit and let it drown. there.
Going to check SF’s venue….like Mark, find another interested partner…good luck SF.
Happy Hump Day….it is Wednesday, is it not?
Jean…good to see you’re still alive….come back more often.
Ruth Anne…liked your post on Churchill…especially the quote. He was the man for that time in history.
GR 😉 and I’ve done this a few times….

…and Sandcastler, where on God’s green earth are you??? Was wondering where you and Loon have been.
I want this in a big poster size….

The Daily Extra on the back of today’s Shakespearean Insult a Day:
Buzz Aldrin’s mother’s maiden name was Moon.
Debbe: How do they get a cat to make a mouth like that? Looks like it’s working on a plug of ‘backy.
I found a site last night / stupid suspension, but could not post [3x] even though “OB: Do you have a URL for that? emb” was posted minutes earlier. Was it Sand who had trouble posting earlier.
Peace, emb
earlier?
Good morning Debbe. Glad your stitches are out. You asked about my mom. She had an ultrasound yesterday on her leg and found some blockages. Now she must see a vascular specialist next week. Keep praying for her, as kicking her smoking habit will be the hardest part of any treatment.
emb, did you see the link I had posted under the prior retro strip? They went into great detail about ways genetics determine cat’s coloring of both coat and eyes. Also had info on multiple cat-related subjects.
Mark since you don’t smoke how can you stand your mom’s smoking? All my help smoke and their smoke filled clothes make me ill. I thought smoking had decreased but it doesn’t seem that way. Oklahoma seems the mist addicted of all.
From everyone I have talked to surgically lately it seems cigarette smoking keeps anything from healing.
My heating unit has gone out again running frozen air nonstop and got hold of my air heat company who told me to find breaker. Some genius in past put it behind refrigerator which I can’t move.
Mark: Yes, I did, and thanks. Hope there won’t be a quiz. Peace, emb
Have one free standing air filter in living room, one in hall, one in my bedroom and use the smoke filtering filter in the HVAC system. And spend as little time as possible in same room as her. Since moving back into her house I have developed a recurring cough that I did not have before. It’s awful, but I truly think she will smoke till she dies because her addiction is that strong. And she does not care what it does to anyone else around her.
Debbe, I think this cat’s even cuter… and the Star Wars crowd will bow to its power!

“…it seems cigarette smoking keeps anything from healing.”
Especially, dental procedures, according to my dentist. Which I suppose makes sense, as most nicotine delivery systems are oral.
Why is the school worried about the kid wearing a Stormtrooper t-shirt? Everybody knows Stormtroopers can’t hit the broad side of a barn door even with a bull’s eye painted on it!
Mark, my Mom smoked for years-at least two packs of Benson Hedges menthols a day. When I was pregnant with my first child I told her she could no longer smoke in my house, mostly because it was hard enough for me to breathe anyway, and the smoke made it worse. Did I mention I have bronchitis? She was furious, but she quit smoking in the house and in my car.
SF, I’m with the others-if this is something you enjoy, find a new partner!
Debbe and Ghost, 🙂
Speaking of cats…
