Given recent efforts, I thought we’d revisit an old beach series from 15 years ago, 2002. Arlo and Janis are at the beach without Gene, who is just now old enough to prefer being anywhere his parents aren’t, even if they’re at the shore. Speaking of humidity, this is what it has felt like around here recently, until the atmosphere just can’t hold anymore and it begins to rain. No, it isn’t the heat alone, or the humidity, for that matter. The combination, however, is killer!

This is for Mindy from Indy, my purple hazed hair stylist and her hair. And also because she is part of the new harem Ghost is forming here. She loves him and says we are luckiest people in world to have met as we did.
I agree.

Debbe – prayers…
Debbe, i just read your last post. Somehow I missed it. Prayers for you and your dad. Your comment about “this didn’t just happen overnight” made me think of the sudden diagnosis of Mom’s lung cancer. She had been seeing the same doctor for years and there was never a word. Then my brother took her to a new doctor, and we were all shocked.
Good luck to your dad. There are lots of treatments for what he has and they get better all the time.
Mark weren’t you shocked with your bypass surgery and diabetes?
You have to look. They just don’t look.
This little gal from OK is truly talented! Of course she even got Simon Cowell to smile, stand, and applaud:

Adult Truths

3. I totally take back all those times I didn’t want to nap when I was younger
.
4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet? (I do very well thank you
though I need an area the size
of a bed.)
6. Was learning cursive really necessary? (Yes so us oldsters can write and the youngsters
will not know what we are saying about them)
(At least 14 States require cursive to be taught
in school)
If I stay in these parts a while, I’ll need a P&PHS 2.0. I’ve probably already found her, albeit she’s a Purple-Haired & PHS. Of course, that would mean being unfaithful to P&PHS 1.0. I’m not sure how they feel about promiscuous clients, so I’m not sure I’d like to climb into one’s chair while she’s holding sharp instruments.
Jackie has your PT put you on the extensionator yet? That was worse than anything they did getting my knee to bend. Getting it to go to 0 was the worst. I am 2 years post and can do just about anything I could do on the factory part, except I have to roll up a towel before I can kneel which is a pain. Someone needs to make a something to kneel on for those with non factory knees..
When I had my knees done, the doc told me that I would not be kneeling ever again – at least, not with his blessing and not without risk. Similarly, he told me to stay off ladders, possibly because of my considerable bulk. I never was too fond of ladders, anyway….
1. TIP BlogSpot has gone political.

2. You can tell what this is a picture of. That means it’s not truly art, right?
Peace,
I am hoping to end up with two good knees and legs that work on flat surfaces and most circumstances. Minus the e,tra weight. I haven’t knelt in years, either in church or in the garden.
Goal is break no hips, legs or arms and continue to fight to regain my health.
Lofty goals.
Slip sliding, slip sliding away. Our comfort zone.
I hope some of you enjoyed that little OK girl’s ventriloquist act. My daughter said the girl’s good, but the rabbit sings better than she does!

What’s the secret to gocomics.com? I am signed in – the site even says so – but I cannot bring up any comics. Instead I get the message that the site declines to show the page.
Been awhile since I’d seen a good ventriloquist act, thanks TruckerRon.
I am reminded of the first time I saw Edgar Bergen on television, my parents were excited to share his comedy with me. I was not impressed, so they were disappointed. They tried to explain that his act became famous on radio. This confused me even more. How do you perform ventriloquism on radio? Kind of misses the point, doesn’t it? I mean if you can’t see the dummy, you aren’t exactly fooled.
This one was neat to watch, thanks for the memories it brought.

I am receiving 403:Forbidden, when following either of the goComics hyperlinks on this page. Anyone else? If it is just me, I wonder if they did not like me retrieving strips from prior 2007?
Any information welcome.
Hi cxp, missed yours while typing. Glad to see the trouble is on GoComics end. Now that I’ve read yours, I’m sure it is temporary and will be ‘fixed’ soon. That is if you can consider what they’ve been up to as ‘fixing’.
Thanks for the information, even before asked.
Hah! Ask, and you shall…
The problem had stood for more than an hour, but as soon as I ask about it, solved.
Nuthin’ to see here, move along.
Hope it cleared for you too, cxp.
I was able to view comics on it prior to 7am, but haven’t looked at anything except comics since. Didn’t even know there was a problem.

I thought the problem might lie with my blocking most cookies, so I unblocked cookies. I was then able to see gocomics.com. From what you wrote, maybe that was coincidence.
I suppose I should complete the experiment by going back to partial cookie blockage and see if the strips are still available.
Aha! I just went back to partial cookie blockage and still got the strips, so it was coincidence.
Should have remembered to comment on strip, amid confusion to get there.
Thanks Jimmy for the twist on the circle of life played out in the kitchen. It strikes chords.
About cookies, they are not your enemy so much as are your friends who email you links, articles, post links on Facebook, ask you to click and say “amen”, click if you like puppies or cats or hate cancer.
Just saying.
We went to Port Canaveral today and toured the Coast Guard’s tall ship Eagle. Sharp young people from the Coast Guard Academy make up its crew; summer cruises are part of their training.
While there we saw more frigatebirds than either of us had seen in all our years put together!
