Great Expectations II

Buy the new book, "Beaucoup Arlo & Janis!"Today's "Arlo & Janis!"
A quick update: the wayward shirts have been located. I still have not seen them, but I will this morning. Someone asked if I ever considered a sibling for Gene. Yes, I did. Knowing the way I work, I probably didn’t know myself when I started this little story line so many years ago whether Janis would be pregnant or not. (Spoiler! She isn’t.) The way I work, again, it was never “decided” as such; it just never happened. A sibling would have expanded the strip, to be sure, but I think maybe I didn’t want to be tied to several years of baby jokes.

    Guess where “Meetings” fall.

    emb, peanut butter has 4 grams of protein per tablespoon, so I suppose one would have to decide if the 8 grams of fat is worth that. Note: “Low fat” peanut butters just replace the fat with sugar, so it’s not really recommended.
