A pithy comic strip about life, love, lust and puthy cats.

Est. 1985

Extra, Extra!

Butter, butter, butter!

Buy the new book, "Beaucoup Arlo & Janis!"Today's "Arlo & Janis!"
Yes, it’s that time of year, also. Time for a homecooked meal served en plein air, complete with a fresh baguette. By the way, the one-and-done Braves are on top of the National League East by 2.5 games, solidly on schedule for their annual date with destiny: elimination in the first round of the playoffs. I see the BoSox aren’t doing so well.

    Debbe. I didn’t hold back because of the quote, but because I thought some might not like the image. And as for other things you find when you look around a site I linked…I try to not directly post the objectionable stuff. Anyone looking for it will find it though, just like anywhere else in life. Have a safe night, don’t want any of you having to use the pit in the chicken house for a storm cellar. I think the storm would be better!

    Dear Jackie Monies, we have all been worrying about you and are very glad to hear from you. Hoping that your husband will do well. It’s good that your daughter can help, and the little one too. Having family members around lifts ones spirits.

    Thanks to all. Watching the news coming from Arkansas tonight makes one grateful. I told my mother just now that when we say get out and go in the shelter that is why. I think I am only woman in county with a shelter in a boat shop.

    Two year stole the key for letter “Aaahg” and it is next to impossible to type!

    Love, Jackie Monies

    Good morning Villagers…..

    First of all, prayers to all who were affected by last night’s tornado in Mayflower, Arkansas. Saw some footage….terrible.

    Second….GR πŸ™‚ that video and when the sax started, it actually gave me goose bumps…boy, she sure can sing, and yes, The Big Man is missed.

    Ya’ll have a blessed day….Amen

    Debbe, this almost makes me wish I had watched Ally McBeal all those years ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO_sakIdUjw

    Jean….watched the video….not sure, but did I see Pee Wee Herman in the audience…look real close….but, ya know, Robert can sing….I just love his movies……he’s come a long way, and in that long way has earned a lot of respect from his fans and the movie and music industry. Think I’ll do some ‘lurking’ later on his songs…..thanks Jean πŸ˜‰

    Debbe, that is indeed Peewee, aka Paul Reubens! I had to watch the video a couple of times to quit focusing on Robert Downey and look elsewhere. Such a hardship. πŸ˜‰

    Yes, Robert has overcome a lot, and he has worked hard to get where he is, and yes, earned every bit of that respect.
