Today, I’m doing something I’ve never done before, and I’m not really supposed to be doing it. Instead of some old cartoon from the past, I’m showing you previews of the coming week. That’s right! Each panel in the “comic strip” above is from a panel that has never appeared in print or pixel. Granted, they don’t make much sense when assembled in one strip, but that’s never been a major impediment around here before. Technically, I’m not supposed to show you stuff before the syndicate has released it; if you come here tomorrow and find Snuffy Smith, you’ll know what happened. So, watch for the above panels, in newspapers the week of Christmas!
Oh! By the way, if you aren’t already a member of the Facebook group Arlo and Janis Fans, now would be an auspicious time to join. The group needs 21 more members to reach 500. Officially, I don’t have anything to do with the site. Mostly, it’s the work of Jim Young, a fine fellow with a lot of time on his hands, apparently. I know it would make him happy to hit the 500-member mark. And me, too!

Sideburns, sorry to hear about your osteoporosis, my paternal Grandmother suffered from it horribly. As she aged, the “hump’ between her shoulder blades grew worse. She almost walked at a 45 degree angle. I miss my Grandma. Especially this time of year. We grew up living next door to them, and I would lie in bed at night and watch the color wheel turn the silver tree blue, green and red, until I fell asleep.
and where is Jerry….last I read he star gazing, hope he wasn’t “beamed” up.
Mark….I just had a “bubble” fart….his name was ‘Fish’ and his wife’s name was Bernice…..
Debbe; Do your “girls” talk to you on Christmas Eve? The hens, I mean. 😉
‘Bye.
Ghost Sweetie, by now you’ve no doubt left to visit your friend, so I will say I hope your day was full of happiness and you are now home safely and Mom is well!
Debbe, I loved Barney Miller too! NetFlix has the first four seasons on dvd. Did you know Fish got his own show? He and Bernice became foster parents! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075506/
Debbe, that channel is $10 a month, and I would much rather pay for it than the other big-name movie channels. They mostly carry stuff I would not even pay to see in the theaters on first-run. If you don’t subscribe I think there is a pay per view fee.
My favorite characters on the show were Yemana and Dietrich.
