I told you a few days ago: near the end of this series there’d be a little pay-off for regular visitors to arloandjanis.com. As I remember, this is the first appearance of the Cobra-like sports car that prominently and incongruously appears at the top of this blog. In the strip above and every day on the Web, we are left to wonder, “What is Arlo really like?”

When I had my hip replaced, they had me sign my left hip. Thank God it wasn’t for hemroids!

Jackie has been quiet, but I understand OK has had ice, snow, and power outages.
Mark, should we develop a contingency to move the orphans to safer ground?
Jackie has the boating contacts we need. And Ghost can do recon for drier spots.
A little appropriate music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X00XdLhFLSg
I dropped her a line on FB asking her to check in.
One advantage of a Medic-Alert bracelet or necklace, Gary, is that it can list multiple conditions, including medicine allergies. And, each person who registers gets an ID number that you can use when you call the (800) number on the bracelet to get current info. Of course, that implies that you keep your data up-to-date with them, something that I’ve probably got to do RSN.
Mark, or this little tune: https://youtu.be/pyZD7eoHZT8
Loon heard me cueing this up and told a cat I was listening to boot stomping stuff. Shows her lack of taste in fine music. 😉
Thinking about it, Handels “Water music” wouldn’t have worked; so I am vindicated.
sand, I see your Johnny Cash and raise you a Led Zeppelin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddpl1zl5sYg
Maybe a change of pace, or different genre? emb

Jackie is fine, got up around noon, missed the sleet and snow. Have changed locks again after both front door and breezeway to kitchen had damage from attempted breakin, putting more and better lighting around yard, deputy did that and cleaned my laundry all day from ex-minions, I am washing my own clothes, months and months worth, figure minions doing another skip run. My god, I am sick of this. Anyway, I went down town and made my local small town Ford dealer happy, they had one each of the pickup I had picked out, I said what’s the difference? I don’t need leather heated seats so that settled that and saved me $4,000 ALONE, plus rebates, hold backs, invoice pricing and discount to finance through Ford with early payoff without penalty. After market of Rhino liner sprayed in and a tonneau cover to match paint, all to match Cowboy Cookies my sailboat.
Private plates of Cowboy Cookies and Boat Widow, covers two genres in case I decide to take barrel racing back up again. The salesman just walked me to credit and I was out in 30 minutes. He said he hoped he was like me at my age, I had to bite my tongue to keep from saying you wish you were like me at your age. Your flies been unzipped all this time.
Emb, loved Barcarolle. Was that an altosoprano, I loved the deep voiced female.
I walked into Dollar General and they were playing nothing but Willie by various artists. I said Oh no, has Willie died? My computer was out, cell phone, television, all dependent on satellites on my roof or buried flooded lines, towers. Debit cards out, went to bank and their lines by AT&T down too.
Turns out they had limited music to play at $$G.
Classical cleavage. I was waiting for her to take a bow.
Back. Looks like I lost that last hand. Got called away to provide Nexus support for my lovely bride.
Jackie, ex-minions would have been good enough reason to change locks. After all, they had enough time alone in your house to figure out what you have and where it is. Anything goes missing I would suggest your deputy check them out first.
Glad you are ok.
What an absolutely exquisite blending of voices, eMb! Many thanks for posting that quality recording.
Lost it darnnit but Randy Newman Louisiana 1928 and Stevie Ray Vaughn Texas Floods?
And yes, someone has at least been playing games on my computer. Tomorrow is another day, I change credit cards, bank access, some other stuff.
c x-p: Have another tucked away in some file. Equally good, but different voices, somewhat sexier-looking alto. Couple of others I should look up. There’s something about no electric guitars. De gustibus . . ..
Heading slightly S tomorrow, family fling [Granddad picks up tab; that’s what we’re for, no?] 100% snow cover, but cold enough for careful winter driving. No high winds predicted. They blowing across 4-lanes + cars to pack it down can yield glare ice. Several cars zipped us once W of Fargo; most were stranded in the median before we turned S onto 2-lane Co. rds; one van was bottom up.
Peace, emb
I had always associated Offenbach with singing automation ice. Irish at Disneyland and World but I somehow remember seeing it with a full cast so it is still a favorite. Somehow I thought male female?
So, yes I have seen Tales of Hoffman onstage more than once and Ghost I just watched enough combined cleavage to make a really bad porn video, the last two divas had an estimated 600 pounds combined weight. I am watching Freddie Mercury and Monserrat Caballe right now from 1988. With light sabres from the conductor and candles in audience. That lady is about a 54Ggggg if not more! Freddie is beautiful.
Need to watch more divas, I ate a small apple while I watched. Motivation supremo. I reached another low this morning on scales. That is a high of it’s own. Freddie is singing Who Wants to Live Forever.
He didn’t.
Debbe 😉 Look, no electric guitars…

So, ate the rest of us living forever? No but we can live now, no one should put off doing the things they want to do because we have today, we are not promised tomorrow and not a thing we can do about yesterday. I for one are heading in to fold more laundry and wash another load. Putting off is obviously what got my laundry over the top. Found lots of pajamas, rugs in washer, comforter and sheets in dryer. Some of my sheets are a STRANGE color now that I don’t recall. Who the heck doesn’t sort by colors and materials?
Off to the Village bubbling cauldron………..oh wait, wrong holiday. Witches can boil, bubble and trouble any day they like.
Yuck! It’s 24 outside, one dog is on sofa with her favorite cat, one in my bathroom snarling fiercely and Adventure Dog is in my canopy bed defending it or keeping my side warm. Cats are distributed around except for three freezing outside who won’t come in.
I am going to be washing clothes for days. And thinking mean thoughts all the time.
Week is to be 40s in day, 20s at night. I get to start wearing winter wardrobe, put on tights and boots tomorrow, along with layers of sweaters and a hat and gloves, throw a Ruana over entire thing. You could peel me like an onion.
Good morning Debbe, you should be up soon. You and I are like mongeese and rats in Hawaii, different shifts.
