Today’s old A&J reaches all the way back to 1988; I’m tempted to say it was a different strip then, but as I look further, it is much the same. Years simply have passed. As I write this Tuesday morning, there is a little over 24 hours left in the fundraiser. I’m not going to whip you, or spur you or exhort you to a final burst of effort. However, if you’ve been meaning to donate something to the parsonage/art center project and claim a reward, now is the time. We’ll be recapping this thing the rest of the week. Thank you!

That didn’t come out right either.

Looks like stewardesses from early days of Southwest Airlines.
Conveyed best wishes to Ms. Charlotte via her family and asked they let her know.
Missed dinner by falling asleep in broad daylight so had very fashionable dinner of chicken vegetable soup composed of a lot of leftovers and some canned things. My blood sugars keep dropping too low so I had a Multigrain English muffin with Michigan sour cherry jam and Alabama lemon honey. Not together but Dickenson wanted the butter part.
In other words I woke up not long ago.
I believe SWA stewardesses (yes, that was their title then) wore both hot pants and miniskirts with go-go boots; and Braniff and PSA’s wore miniskirts and boots. Braniff had the Pucci-designed outfits, too.

These young ladies worked for PSA.

The 70’s should have been so much fun, but it was by far the worst decade of my life. It made me a better person after having gone through it though.
I just read a couple of online articles on uniforms and gimmicks like paper uniforms that tore? There’s a book out on the airlines, stewardesses and uniforms, promotions.
Hi Jackie. I got an answer on a hypothetical that I posed yesterday. The answer is that a revote somehow would have to be done by the convention delegates.
Since I personally do not know anyone who seems to admit supporting either candidate, I wonder who does? And if the public doesn’t admit supporting them, then how did they win primaries and get nominated?
The rest of us can’t decide what to do with our votes other than sit it out so we can shake our fist no matter who wins. It is a sad state of affairs.
It looks increasingly likely that one of them will withdraw prior to the election. The question now is what if it is just before the election? I bet those Italian conversations are getting really interesting now.
Good morning Villagers….
Thank you, Jackie, for getting out a message to Miss Charlotte.
Need to go into town and check on my Dad…..I worry about him falling. He’s not very steady on his feet. His Dr., wants him to go into nursing home. Dad is debating. I do not like nursing homes….lost too many grandparents, parents and aunts in them. They came out feet first.
Oh, and the presidential race commercials…..I hurry up and mute them. The one just grinds me.
And ‘Skittles’ did a fantastic job on the steel rod conveyor….he zipped tied the pressure washer wand (bet you can’t say that fast ten times) to a railing on the front deck, cleaned it and then put mineral oil on it….we’ll see if it gets painted this time.
Sleepless again….think I may go lie back down.
Glad you survived the stress test, Mark.
ya’ll have a blessed day….
GR 😉 glad your mother is doing better……and do you?

Just heard from Miss Charlotte’s family again and they are going to see that she hears about any messages from us. I will add yours too Debbe. Yours too Jerry in case she doesn’t read us. I was going to have her family read us to her but they might not let their mama talk to us again!
Jimmy, I imagine she would love to hear from you. It gets lonesome in those rehab homes, even nice ones.
Did we know Miss Charlotte got her degree in English from Tufts University? I am impressed. That would have been early 50s.
Thanks. Had two deer in the yard yesterday afternoon. Cool. I don’t mind eating them, but I could never shoot one. I used to hunt, but I never shot at a deer.
Jerry: ‘It looks increasingly likely that one of them will withdraw prior to the election.’
Source for that? Why would either one withdraw? Impossible job, of course, but legions seem to want it.
Peace,
Jackie, the answer to your question is 9%, according to the New York Times.

That is scary and about what I suspected.
President Obama has declared Trump unfit to serve as President which seems obvious yesterday according to New York times.
The other side is waiting for Clinton to be charged with some criminal offense. That is what Jerry is talking about I think. One or t’other.
Dear friends, I am so touched by your loving concern. Many thanks. Rehab is progressing even faster than hoped and I am feeling good. The tablet, Apple product, is so different from Microsoft have always used. Only can type one letter at a time … Slow. Love you all.
Charlotte, if you’re still looking at this page you need to know JJ started a new one at 8:17 this a.m. We’re all over there now…
