Today’s “old” A&J strip is from 2014, and speaking of stuff: I wish I could be more authoritative, but I think those of you who pledged during the fund-raising campaign and selected a reward will be receiving a “survey” from Kickstarter. That’s what they call it, a survey, and it only goes out once, so fill it out carefully. It should tell me what reward you selected and where to send it. In the case of shirts, it will be your opportunity to specify size and color. You will notice that I built in some wiggle room for myself. Most rewards are promised to be delivered by the end of October. Hopefully, most will arrive well before then. The book, however, will not be out until November. That’s pretty certain! I will address this process further when I, myself, am more familiar with exactly how it is going to work. Remember, though, you can always email me with any concerns you might have. Those of you who donated outside Kickstarter, I have an email record of your requests and will be in touch. Bear with me. This could be something of an adventure. I guarantee, though, that everyone will get their reward before we’re done.

Peace,
God bless us every one. God bless America.
Those not following Jimmy on Twitter, he is at Comic Con in Boston. Today is parade day and he posted this gem on Twitter.

Just keep scrolling down. I don’t do Twitter but this is a nice addition to the Village.

Thanks Sand
Mark, you did great, thanks.
This really should feature the Moo-Cow Creamer (https://www.amazon.com/Vintage-Whirley-Industries-Plastic-Moo-Cow/dp/B0088JXG56), which is fixed in my nostalgic memory because it was a feature of local roadhouses in my youth.
Oh my, the Twitter is funny but it looks like more work than the blog!
Good morning Jerry. Good one on the Olympics.
I asked for photos if anyone cosplayed Janis. Didn’t expect Herself to show up in costume, though.
That one’s easy, black bra and panties.
One of us here must be the Wikipedia author for Arlo and Janis. I just read it almost end to end. Lots of back story there.
Arlo is Charlle Brown, but Janis is…?
Lucy
Argh!
‘Tis a quiet day in the village.
Lucy never inspired such ….stirrings… in me before…..
“Arlo is Charlie Brown….” ?? Kindly explain, as I must have missed a connection somewhere. If it was a matter on VisageVolume or other social network – none of which I use – such may account for my non-understanding.
OK, I just noticed his shirt in one of the references given above.
One thing’s for sure, Jackie. If comicCon fans are anything like SF fans, any woman dressed up like Janis in black undies wouldn’t have the figure to carry it off.
Heck, I even have the fishnet hose like in Christmas Stockings, the entire outfit. But what if security weren’t A and J fans?
c x-p: Thanks for the heads up. Thought the shirt odd, but the connection escaped me. Peace,
And Janis is dressed as Lucy. They are in costume as the comic characters for the convention where those attending go as fan favorite characters. Is Elvira considered a comic character? I love witches and she combines two great looks there.
Forgot to say I have been entertaining myself reading old A and J strip online but with a twist. These are on people’s blogs and online articles. Sort of like clipping the cartoon and putting on fridge but a step further, putting on Web blogs. Lots and lots and lots.
“That one’s easy, black bra and panties.”
Jackie, in my experience, “black bra and panties” is often the very definition of “easy”. 😉
