Today’s old A&J is really old, from 1997. A baby born on the day this cartoon first appeared would be able next week to buy a drink legally. I appreciate the comments in wake of yesterday’s post, the baseball/cartooning analogy. That’s called fishing for compliments, I believe.

So here’s a thought for this morning: How *is* Arlo’s mother? We know his dad was a vet. How are Janis’s folks, for that matter? True, A&J fades in and out of reality and fantasy alternately like “Peanuts” did (though Charlie Brown was never an alligator–nor a crocodile). But it never abandons reality altogether.
I personally worry about Gus who aged rapidly. He must have had Mary Lou when he was Arlo’s current age?
Gus didn’t age rapidly, Arlo is aging very slowly. You’re right that Gus looked about Arlo’s age when he first appeared. He also looked taller and didn’t have a cigar either.
Good morning. Feeling better. Had two large blueberry pancakes for breakfast.
Ghost does not, still in bed coughing.
