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.

Lots of Mexican markets, but no Asian ones I’ve found locally, Mark. I’ll check the surrounding area when I have time.
And yeah, I know…two and half tablespoons of that soy sauce gives you 100% of your RDA of sodium. But that’s why I prefer the more flavorful varieties…you don’t have to use very much of it in cooking.

Read where female top execs now make more than male.
But how do you compare apples, oranges, bananas, rhubarb & mangoes?
Knew a couple that shared denture – the Mrs had no top teeth yet ate
apples, corn on the cob.
My grandfather split his lip – went home and asked grandmother to stitch it.
She said “no” –
He – “Viking wives did”
She “You’re no Viking”
My Father had infected finger leading to blood poison. Before Penicillin.
They cut it off with what looked like a bolt cutter.
His roomie in the hospital asked how he stood it without anesthetic.
He said compared to the pain of the finger it was a relief.
This was 1938 – Many things that he said I took as imagination or tales
turned out to be true.
Up until about 1900, you were statistically more likely to live if you *didn’t* go to a hospital with an injury or illness. But remember that much treatment then was done in doctors’ offices.
Debbe π Here’s some real Hippie Chick music for you, hon.

And if you didn’t wear your hazmat suit today, dare I ask what you did wear? π
Hope you had a Happy Payday and that you held back a few bucks for a few adult beverages.
I believe ghost is like me in some ways. He will give personal info to a point. I have previously mentioned a blog in which I participated and very scary things started happening and the police were involved. Before I quit altogether I became very good at spotting the guys writing traits and then he came after me. I’m talking about someone who was suspected in one murder and was stalking another person. If you see me out and around wearing my A & J shirt please come up and say hello. You will not find me on facebook or otherwise hopefully. Peas.
Jackie just woke from her afternoon nap, tired. Going back to bed after I finish my midnight snack. I got dressed in the cutest shorts to go get my hair and nails done, laid down, fell asleep and obviously woke up long enough to put on this nightshirt that says love never gives up.
Bet you aren’t supposed to wear that after 30 either, wear flannel granny gowns.
Hair and nails look like I missed going.
Ghost, you need a vacation but who’d take care of your mama? You and Mark are both loving sons.
Good morning Villagers….
Not going into work today, think I’ll go lay back down.
And yes, I did GR π just enough to put me asleep in the recliner
I’m sorry, Jackie…I didn’t get past “cutest shorts”.
Yay for Debbe’s day off! Yay for Debbe’s adult beverages!
The cats are fed
and as for me
it’s back to bed.
Cutest shorts trio, like Janis, natural crochet lace, black crochet lace or the ones with rose pattern?
Don’t count exercise shorts as cute shorts.
Awake after sleeping around the clock
I’m sorry, Jackie…I didn’t get past “black crochet lace”.
So Jackie, is that the new lyrics to Bill Haley’s Rock Around the Clock? Gonna sleep, gonna sleep around the clock tonight.
I’m not into public discussion of politics, but I do like things that make me laugh, like this: https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/8756_10201590471559278_8693321243685377574_n.jpg?oh=7c35b40255603ea508eec02a6d9ddb4b&oe=57C31700
Mark that was highly entertaining! I would love to watch that debate. They could have a dance off ending in gun fire.
I think the two of them should run as Pres/VP. That could be the name for a new third party. And Ghost’s Bat-guano crazy lady friend could be first lady.
Batguano Crazy party?
Wish I could post the video of the Texas mosquitoes here to go with the topic of what size shot to shoot them with. I put it on my Facebook page, so Mark can put it here.

Look for it on here.
And no, Jackie, the Bat-S*** Crazy Party
I literally haven’t cared enough to check on BGCL, so I have no idea what she is up to these days. She could indeed be available for First Lady duty, for all I know.
Ghost, since you never get to end of post I will tell you what I have been putting on hangers this morning: crocheted tank tops. Crocheted cardigans and a bakers dozen of new sheer kimono vests.
Like scarves with sleeves.
If you haven’t been eating fresh kale, try this. Stir fried kale in olive oil and pat of butter, cracked black and red pepper, no salt, egg fried in middle. I had two. Side of fresh new potatoes, purple, red and gold cooked on flat iron with cracked pepper, no salt, all from garden.
Except those eggs. I need chickens, the birds just entertain.
Jackie (and I sincerely mean this as a compliment), from the descriptions of your wardrobe you have offered, it seems that a good portion of it would not be out of place in a high priced bordello. Of course, the bordello employees would doubtless wear those clothing items without benefit of underwear, which I’m pretty sure you do not. π
Only where clothing is optional. Except in pool area.
Should I be cleaning the house?
“Only where clothing is optional.” Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. One wouldn’t be nude if one kept on one’s underwear, would one?
And no, Jackie, as I hope you already understand, I have no moral or philosophical objection to nudity. But I generally prefer to get naked for a more specific purpose than just airing out my junk. π
