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.

that’s, dammit. emb
hear! Dammit again.
My family prefers MW. And it makes Spam tolerable.
And I agree with Janis. A subset of items can be the cutest of a larger set of items.
@Ruth Anne — I’m hoping I don’t have any flesh eating bacteria. My house didn’t flood, but I was flooded out of my neighborhood. I had to park at a grocery store a couple blocks away and I sloshed or bicycled to and from my car. A little unnerving to come home, see the streets around your neighborhood cordoned off and flooded over and the CVS on the corner closed and sandbagged. Also, this was the first time in my life I experienced the flood waters continuing to rise after the rain stopped. I’m maybe a mile or two above the Brazos, (where the bend in Fort Bend County is)
Yep, I loved this blog too. She got it right. There was a period in my life I refer to as my Stepford Wife Period.
I knew it even then, gave it the name. Not very proud of it.
Women seem to like me. I am no real threat because I seldom seem acquisitive. I am the one who says Do It! Wear it! Lose it! (Not always weight)
Song for the morning courtesy of Clapton and JJ Cale. Had not heard it until yesterday. Love it, has become my favorite of theirs. If you have never floated or rafted a river, do it!

@John – Do be careful with any wounds. The year we had 3 hurricanes colleague ended up in the hospital with a bad MRSA infection after wading through her flooded yard. (Granted she was a diabetic, already had scratches, and should have known better, but we ALL need to be more aware.)
One word: Shawn Klus.h
or if you prefer Klush.
You are right Jerry, he is fantastic. The voice is amazing. My friend does Elvis but has to use karaoke machine for the senior citizens homes where ladies adore him. I have a cousin too and he and his son both did Elvis, son came to his grandmother funeral in his jumpsuit but hey, she was an Elvis Vegas groupie.
I’m from the south. We love us some Elvis.
Another song for Jerry, Elvis and Cilla, Director Straits and Calling Elvis.

Dire. Spell check REWROTE an entire sentence in a post I did about how to convert a $2.50 Walmart salad into a gourmet delicious lunch with a few additions. A few, not many.
Rewrote it and totally CHANGED what I said. Hal and 2001 and 1984 have ALL been superceded by the present and we ain’t seen nothing yet!
Jackie, please tell your friend to be very, very careful if he ever goes to Vegas. A friend of mine did an Elvis impersonation at an SF con there and almost got in trouble because he didn’t have a license. That’s right, in Los Vegas, you need a city license to impersonate Elvis.
I loved 3000 Miles to Graceland with Kurt Russell and Nicholas Cage and the Elvis convention.

John in Richmond, things down your way is ugly compared to what we are experiencing. Loon and I have made contributions to the animal shelters to assist them with flood displaced pets. As to the big bend on the Brazos River, that body never runs in a straight line for any noticeable distance. Stay dry, call if we can help out.
EXCUSE me that was Kevin Costner, not Cage as Elvis in Graceland. I think k either could have done role but Kurt Russell got to be Elvis more than once.
The reviews were vicious, it was so bad.
I can do ok on Elvis ballads, but on the big power endings. like I Did It My Way, no one could beat him. It’s too bad he didn’t get to do the music that he wanted to do.
On that thought, here is Mark Knoepler singing Back to Tupelo which I love.

I think it’s time reform “occupational licensing” laws here in Utah. To become a house painter takes 730 days of training while an EMT is prepared to enter the workforce after just 28 days…

Debbe 😉 If Super Sexy Chicken Lady dressed like this for “Casual Fridays”, it might increase the size of her pay check. Just sayin’… 😉

Jackie, did you know Kurt Russell’s first movie role was in an Elvis film? Kurt was a child actor at the time.
Debbe, a comic for you: https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13332782_837131456430658_4226378354839832821_n.jpg?oh=97968235c202bae0b97e0ed4ab1df22c&oe=58055B8C
Mark that is almost as funny as Two Cows and A Chicken which I loved.
