Is Arlo a pedantic smartass or a smartass pedantic? There’s a current cartoon coming up later this week in newspapers that is very much in this vein. This cartoon from 2003 ran online not very long ago, but I’m away from my desk this morning and suffering connectivity issues on top of all, so I just grabbed something off the shelf. I do like this one. It’s very Arlo & Janis.

Interesting quote in a crossword puzzle I did today: “In politics, if you want something said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman.” Margaret Thatcher (sometime in the mid-1960s, according to one source)
I thought bankrupt Mark because we had a plant in Tulsa that shut down, huge commotion. Mainly people like my addicted MIL who ate everything they made. Where would they get their Ding Dongs.?
Song for Jerry and Elvis and Cilla https://youtu.be/3LotyJxpXqM
Happens to be a Jimmy Buffet favorite of mine and a poignant commentary on his loss. Buffet can imitate Elvis voice so well when he wants to.
Debbe 😉 Black, eh? Ah, my favorite. Am I getting warm, hon? 🙂

I found my porcine aviator statue today and it is about size of a juvenile piglet, looks real except it has wings and is an antiqued brown finish, sort of burnished. This one already has a name so don’t worry, no one in Village is being so honored. HOWEVER, the spring garden line is half off already so I could add more.
I have forgotten what a litter of pigs is called?
Well, that was different.
I ordered a particular type of soy sauce from Wally World they don’t carry in the local store. I got an email yesterday morning saying the order was at the store for pickup until June 13. So I went to the store tonight and of course they said it was “returned” earlier today. And of course no one in the store could explain why.
So I called Customer Service when I got home. The VM robot said there would be a 23-minute wait, so I took the option for a rep to return my call. The rep called and said his name was “Giovanni”. His Italian accent was so thick I swear I could hear “O Sole Mio” playing softly in the background. (“I tella you whata I’ma gonna do. I’ma gonna calla the store for you and finda out whata happen.”) I was delighted. It made my day.
Now I just hope I never find out it was some guy in Mumbai or Bangalore who has perfected an Italian accent.
all three are the cutest in the whole store
Bought a sitting iron mermaid to go on tub or fountain or somewhere. Love mermaids but not Disney ones. I always wanted a life size statue.
John – Glad to hear from you after all the flooding pictures we’ve seen from Richmond.
And now for something sweeter than a Hostess cupcake:

Was in Norway few years back and met people with English accented English
And Texas accented English. Depended where they learned. The Texas was

Jerry:
On the seventh, you posted a note about comments you had left about Ohio and then asked about a certain crop.
I couldn’t find your comments. Where are they?
In regard to the crop, it depends upon the county. Many Ohio counties have a great deal of corn and soybeans.
Meigs County is known primarily for another crop.
What county is Shawnee State U. in? It’s opposite KY, where real estate is cheaper.
Here’s another explore site, about 8 hr. ahead of us, so only visible for a few more hrs. today. It’s about on the equator, so the nights are about 12 hr. long. Hippos in the river now. Remember to close ‘explore.’ Peace,

So today’s strip about Frog vs. Toad came up right after I read an article about Miracle Whip vs. Mayonnaise. So is there anyone here that likes both? I was not a fan of either when I first got married and once I went to the store and bought MW instead of Mayonnaise…I never made that mistake again!
JJ,
I hope you have been able to keep up with those amazing Lady Tigers in the WCSWS. One more win and they have made the impossible possible! WAR EAGLE !!!
God bless us every one.
Another article on women over 40, and the 20somethings who write about them. I rather like this one.

Debbe, Stan the Man is Stan Lee, former president and chairman of Marvel Comics. He began as a writer and artist, and helped create Spider Man, the Hulk, Fantastic 4, Iron Man, the X-Men, and several others. If you watch any of the movies, you will see Stan in some small cameo part.
Toad or frog, of course neither should be confused with a Horned Toad (which is actually a lizard).
Trapper Jean: I enjoyed that article and the comments that followed it. Based on conversations Bob has had recently with a few 30-something friends, I might ask why should I take advice about life from someone who doesn’t pay attention to things like that tropical storming warning we were under earlier this week.
Don’t care for either mayo or MW, but do like frogs and toads. Even took an elective herp course as a grad student in Ann Arbor. Went on night field trips when peepers and cricket frogs etc. were calling. Headlamps, waders, couldn’t here another student who was more than 2 m. away. Still too cool then for mosquitoes. Mr. Quayle, that the word with -oes at the end. Peace,
