It isn’t easy depicting Arlo and Janis in the act of kissing. They don’t really have lips, or even mouths sometimes. Arlo’s nose gets in the way. And kissing is really kind of a silly act when you step back and observe it objectively, something admittedly difficult to do. Anyway, I think it turned out as well as could be in this old strip from 2004. We’ll talk about that boat next week.

Debbe: Yep, Jupiter.

Click on the boldface line that begins “Jupiter …” for a nice close-up of the planet. Don’t know why it alternates two views of the rapidly rotating planet. Jove’s ‘day’ is some 8 hr. long.
Peace,
By the way, I have been trying to talk to Hal so I can quit typing. It is interesting. I will dictate one to you all this week and you can see for yourself. We don’t speak same language apparently.
Jackie, I suppose you could always demand that HAL do as you say, but…

A third egg, and they’ve been incubating since there were 2, couple of days ago. Odd.

Peace,
Jackie, Hal speaks English as a second language, having been designed and built in S. Korea. And the English he understands is probably newscaster speak, rather than Louisioklahoman. Same reason our hospital’s dictation system can only handle certain physicians, but not others. It can’t understand enough of what they call English to bypass a human transcriptionist.
Mark, considering the handwriting of many physicians, I think what we have is a failure to communicate!
A physician once told me that if he didn’t know how to spell a word, he would write the first two or three letters and scrawl the rest. That may explain a lot.
Blondie strip, years back, druggist calls Dagwood ‘Dr.’ / his scrawl. Peace,
Debbe 😉 (‘Cause I owe you one from last night) From back in the “Hair Days”…

I guess this can be for Jackie as well, if she ever lights in one place long enough to listen to it.
This crowd is ahead of the game once again. I just noticed this entry for today on our trivia calendar:
“According to Christian theology, there are nine different choirs of angels. Those closest to the material world are known simply as angels. Can you name the other eight groups?”
Their answer: Seraphim, cherubim, thrones, dominions, virtues, powers, principalities, and archangels.
Did I ever mention I’m pretty good at answering trivia questions?
Is everybody watching basketball tonight or something? No one’s posted since Ghost at 709.

No Ghost, I don’t think you have.
We are all watching the Space Odyssey side bars after Ghost

We just watched an Atlas 5 rocket launch from the Cape. Pretty good view from our backyard even if we are 40+ miles away. Beautiful clear sky – we were able to follow it easily until the first stage burnout and a little bit after that. Bright moonlight meant no worries about stumbling in the dark.
A little late in the game, but just wanted to say I enjoyed the St. Patrick’s Day strip! That’s my birthday, and coincidentally I’m also a leprechaun ! Thanks, Jimmy
Jackie has had one adventure too many. The island had a big brush fire, as did the other side where I was. When the fire department answered my 20 gallons of gas on and under my truck the driver was still in her office attire. Coincidentally she had managed convenience stores for 11 years and was appalled at the stations blatant violations and lack of safety requirements.
Good night all. Love, Jackie
Happy belated birthday, Lynn. Do you still have your pot of gold, or has William Devane bought it?
Debbe 😉 Winning is better than losing.

Good morning Villagers….
Emb…thank you for the info. It was a spectacular site yesterday morning on our way to work. The full moon was setting in the west, and it was a brilliant orange/red, while the sun was rising in the east in its full color too. Almost twisted my neck taking in the view.
Ruth, what a view you had too….and 40 miles away at that.
Re doctors’ handwriting…..don’t they take a course in that, like Scribble 101 🙂
I once left a handwritten note for the teens at work…they tried to tell me they can’t read handwriting (cursive) that they can only read the printed word, they weren’t taught cursive….I thought, give me a break, how would you sign your name? The little idgets aren’t fulling me!
Moon still shinning through my window……maybe a repeat this morning of the sun rising and the moon setting….it was beautiful….
ya’ll have a happy hump day…..
GR 😉 love Emmylou, she opened for the Eagles many years ago….great concert. Out of curiosity….I say this on the right, Emmylou with Mark Knopfler……
