Cat-Like Reflexes

By Jimmy Johnson


Buy the new book, "Beaucoup Arlo & Janis!"Today's "Arlo & Janis!"
I said I would come in today, on Saturday, to tell you a little more about the A&J T shirts that will be available soon, and so I have. To make things easier for all, you can go here for detailed information about the short-sleeve shirts and go here for information about the long-sleeve shirts. The official Gildan Web site will give you the technical details about the shirts, as well as the colors. (Remember, the short-sleeve shirts are available in Carolina blue, charcoal, military green, natural and sport gray, and the long-sleeve shirts are available in black, gold, light pink, red and sand.) There also is a size chart available. The handsome young men are not included.

I thought I would give you my general impressions of our product. These are Gildan’s “Ultra Cotton” line, the best they offer. They are 6-ounce cotton shirts, about the heaviest basic T generally available. All are from 100% American-grown cotton, except the “sport gray” version which, for some reason, is 10% polyester. However, I’ve seen it and felt it; it’s a good shirt. I have worn these shirts around for several weeks and washed them—of course. These shirts fit. When I say that, I mean they are neither clingy nor baggy. I wear a large T shirt normally, and the large Gildan is comfortable. Maybe I shouldn’t encourage you to purchase the wrong size shirt, but if you like your shirt really comfy loose, as many do, you might consider getting a size larger than normal for you. The actually colors of the shirt don’t always match up with the corresponding colors on the Web. Oddly, the shirt colors tend to be more vivid, I think. And remember, you can see the artwork on the shirts by clicking on the link at the top of this post. I’ve said about all I can say about T shirts. Now I’m going to watch the Auburn/Alabama game. War Eagle!!

    Debbe ๐Ÿ˜‰ Now we know you can dance; do you sing, also? If so, for some reason I think of you as sounding like this.

    No but when you get really old you will be poking nurses with your cane and looking down nurses tops when they bend over you to change your bed pan.

    I had a boss worse than you once. I used to bend over and lean over desks to provoke him. He liked breasts AND rear ends.

    By the way, I have NEVER worn provocative clothes at any point in my life unless you count things like deep hem openings that showed legs getting in and out of cars. I always dressed like what you wished the women on cruises and the country club wore.

    It’s all about imagination and attitude of the dressee because if you know you have it you could wear a nuns dress and it wouldn’t change a habit.

    Good morning Villagers…..

    Why yes, Miss Charlotte, I totally agree with you…that’s why I’ve always addressed Anony as Jackie…..that way I don’t feel as though I’m having a conversation with an unknown person of interest……did ya hear that Jackie????

    Uneventful day, but productive….the Boss is starting to wig out on us. gearing up for next week’s purge. I am NOT looking forward to it. And George the Rooster is going home with an employee who had two brown hens. I asked her yesterday if he would be cold, she said he would not get frost bit….her two hens actually are pets….so I know George will be in good hands…..

    GR ๐Ÿ˜‰ you would have to go back to 1984 for that particular scene at the bar….the movie they were filming was call “The Legend of Billie Jean” and the film crew was at the same bar with us that night, but I still had the same moves in 1975…only more perfected in 1985 ๐Ÿ™‚

    ya’ll have a happy hump day….

    Oh, and GR ๐Ÿ˜‰ , I can’t sing…whenever I would sing along with the radio, Ian would ask me if I knew who sang that particular song….yes, I would say…..then he would add, you should let them sing it…..ouch!!!!!

    Debbe, your comments about George and whether he would get cold reminds me of one of the Foghorn Leghorn cartoons. Recurring line, “I need, I say, I need your love to keep me warm.”, said to the hen he was romancing.

    NB: It’s Debbie, not Debbe. As to resemblance, beats me.

    That cat looks like it’s yawning, not screaming.

    Great way to insure the cable guy will be on time if a second service call is required.

    And my impression is that Debbe is somewhat more svelte than “Debbie”.

    Jackie, I’m more a northern hemisphere kind of guy, if you catch my drift. There is a story that explains that. Perhaps I will have the opportunity to share it with you someday.

    I am planning to visit the Gulf Coast again. Used to be my favorite salty water. LoveD it and Camille and Katrina broke my heart along with the coast’s collective hearts. If I can heal, then the Gulf can. We may not be exactly the same but we are strong and survived.
