It Could Happen!

By Jimmy Johnson

July 23, 2013


From this date in 2013. Whom would you want to accidentally butt dial you? I think I must’ve chosen Jeff Bridges, simply because I’d want to hear his voice over the phone! I don’t have a lot of time today, or lately. I won’t go into my situation, but here’s a hint: “Move” is a four-letter word.

    The comic below is not the world’s best, but today’s punchline is a gem.

    Re 7-27-20 real-time cartoon: So, do we now have a clue as to the appearance of Jimmy’s atelier? (And no, that’s not a dirty remark.)

    RE today’s(7/28) real time comic. Looks like Arlo needs some mine timbering to hold up the ceiling. And maybe a hard hat? Thanks for everything Jimmy.

    It’s our 58th anniversary this afternoon, between 3 and 3:30 pm. Took three ministers to unite us…the glue seems to have set well, though. We’ve outlasted my MBH’s hometown [site of the wedding], which went out of existence (by merger with neighboring town) in 1964.

      Our celebration will be hot fudge concoctions at local Dairy Queen; the MBH has a sore jaw, so is not up to a large dinner.

    Happy Anniversary and thanks a bajillion JJ. But I’m dismayed and a little sad that all that fabulous original art stored in boxes (probably just tossed in) is deteriorating, as paper products eventually do. What condition will it be in for the Smithsonian?
