I wonder how many plays on words are attached to the name of hair-styling establishments; they seem particularly vulnerable to attempted cleverness. I thought I might as well play out this string from 1997 and show you the first image of Arlo with his then-new haircut. I hate drawing hair. There is nothing more challenging about cartooning for me than drawing hair. Long or short, I have always thought Arlo’s hair looks ridiculous, but by now he wouldn’t be Arlo without that hair. However, no one has ever complained about Arlo’s hair. But Janis! There are people out there who hate her hair and are always asking stuff like, “Why does she have a pot on her head?” I was giving a talk one time when two women in the audience got into a heated exchange about Janis’ hair. One thought it was terrible, and the other thought it was fine. I’ve always thought it looks all right, for cartoon hair. Better than Arlo’s!
Hair’s Arlo!

Greetings to one and all,
I received an email that may be spam or a virus and I was wondering if anyone else in the community received it as well. The subject line was: You have a message from Jimmy Johnson. I almost clicked on the link until I saw the address, which had “ru” attached to it. This usually means it’s a dubious source (as in Nigerian princes), so I chucked it in the trash can.
I don’t know if it was actually a message from the real Jimmy Johnson, but I wanted to give everyone in the community a heads-up to be a little careful if you receive a similar message.
All the best.
BTW, the address on the mail contained the following.
tennis-albatros.ru/cold.pnp?
Not much to say except blessings and hope for all. Summer is here in South Louisiana.
God bless us every one.
Steve, that is the most quotable movie ever. Even the lesser known quotes are great.

Peter Lorre was so disgusting, I wouldn’t have helped him, either.
Fan, first of all, it’s good to know that you are still with us. Second, and anyone correct me if I’m wrong, on one occasion JJ did communicate with me and even then it was only through this forum. He once stated when we were trying to contact Denice that he keeps no records of anyone’s address.
Thirdly, I know from sad experience that it is possible to hijack someone else’s address and send an email that appears to come from them.
Fan, and .ru means the domain is in Russia. Obviously JJ is not living in Russia, nor using an internet server located there.
As the officer on Hill Street Blues always said, “Let’s be careful out there.”

Most people in my area have no clue that shampoos that grow your hair faster and longer (obviously with no sulfates, no parabens or DEA) are even a thing. Persons now may have longer hair and have more alternatives. Certainly worth considering.
If you’re studying alopecia, damaged hair, avoiding scalp disorders, fast hair growth, hair health more often than not, almost the same ideas apply.
In most cases, you have to stay away from hair treatments and products that contain chemicals such as parabens, DEA or sulfates.
What’s healthy for your hair is beneficial for your skin also.
Clearly your content above is so useful for many reasons. It stays away from the usual mistakes and pitfalls too many fall into: buying ineffective alternatives. Keep it up!
you are in point of fact a excellent webmaster. The site loading pace is amazing. It kind of feels that you’re doing any distinctive trick. Also, The contents are masterwork. you have done a excellent task on this topic!
I truly appreciate this post. I have been looking all over for this! Thank goodness I found it on Bing. You’ve made my day! Thanks again
