Over many autumns, I’ve drawn several variations of this gag set-up, including one this year. This one from 2011 is one of my favorites. The first winter after Arlo & Janis began its run in newspapers, I lived in a small cabin on the Tennessee River that was heated exclusively by a central wood-burning fireplace. I gained a wealth of knowledge about chopping wood, starting fires and banking coals, but it was the only such year. I never again lived without at least auxiliary heat, but artistically the experience served me well.

No, “French cut” does not appear particularly “grannified” to me.

Of course, your Granny’s mileage may vary. 🙂

Peace,
As said to me three years ago by a respectable Rotarian at a meetings end, “Just what I always wanted, a Granny in leopard leggings.”
Grannies indeed differ.
Today’s cartoon totally on target. Just looked at forecast for four days of snow here over Christmas.
This may be Ghosts first white Christmas.
We better get supplies laid in!
We got about 6+ inches of snow on top of the inch or two that was already on the ground. Looking at the long range forecast, we will be going over freezing next week with the possibility of rain, so the jury is still out on whether there will be a White Christmas.
I had to drive out for a meeting Tuesday morning and halfway there they cancelled it, so I turned around. When I got back to the office I found out that I-275 south of us had closed due to a driver, in broad daylight, driving the wrong way. Last night I saw the pictures of the engaged couple that were killed by the wrong way driver and then I saw dash cam video of someone that showed the vehicle going the wrong way! It turns out the driver had an open container and was a councilman for a local town. Stuff like that shakes me, especially around Christmas. Although I was not not on the section that the wrong way driver was on, I still thank God for safe travels.
Oh yes, saw a couple of other vehicles driving without their lights on again.
Many trucking companies require their drivers to have their lights on whenever the trucks are moving. Safety studies support that strategy. Many cars today have lights on automatically.
Conversely some people are unaware that the driving lights are not the same as headlamps in that their taillights don’t turn on.

Peace,
This strip is a great example of JJ’s 4-panel strip skills.
The story seems to flow forward easily, but then there’s the action happening between panels 3 & 4. The last panel not only starts you comparing with the previous panel to figure out what happened, that actually takes you back to the first panel, to get the whole set-up. Then, read forward again and enjoy knowing where it’s going.
When I originally left a comment I appear to have clicked
on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a comment is
added I get four emails with the same comment. Perhaps there is a
way you can remove me from that service? Thanks a lot!
