This 2010 take on a classic cartoon scenario is about as culturally insensitive as we get at A&J, I hope. I’m going to mention the book clearance one last time today, but stick around! I promise this gets interesting. First, the spiel: Embarrassingly, there still are a few new hardback copies of “Beaucoup Arlo & Janis” left. This is true partly because I innocently underestimated the remaining stock. There were closer to four dozen than the announced three, but the supply is dwindling, and I need the space in my newly rearranged office. Of course, the pocket money isn’t terrible, either. Wait! We’re not to the interesting part yet. So, this will be your last chance to purchase this book new, and you must use the link below. Now, the interesting part. Back in 1989, a small paperback reprint book of the earliest A&J strips, called “Bop Till You Drop,” was published. At the time, it sold so poorly that no outside publisher has touched me since. Today, on Amazon, there are three used copies of BTYD, beginning at $1,000 and ranging to $10,000. I looked up that last listing, thinking it was a joke or some idiot’s fantasy, but it comes from a legitimate rare book dealer in Washington state. (I’ll bet they’d take $8,000.) Am I saying “Beaucoup Arlo & Janis” would ever be selling for such numbers? Noooo, I’m not saying that! Used copies of BA&J can be had on Amazon for a mere $120.

emb – you obviously value education and some version of spirituality. As you seem proud of your Methodist affiliation, and broached the subject yourself, I urge you to become more familiar with the doctrine underlying the Apostle’s Creed. Especially the version rewritten by those Wesley brothers, still in common use at UMC’s. May it give you peaceful contemplation.
Right on Humble. Good point. Jackie got her soul saved by being sprinkled along with a dozen infants at a venable Methodist church at age 21. That and giving up smoking were conditions my late husband imposed.
He saved my life and my soul I used to joke.
But I had to take instructions in Methodism, just as I took adult catechism when I intended to become a Catholic. I ended up compromising by becoming a confirmed Episcopalian or as the archbishop told me, “A backsliding Catholic who is welcome to return.”
Some people stretch their beliefs in interesting directions.

Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
