From the salmon-colored sofa that is the center of the Arlo & Janis universe, this unique and quixotic comic strip has been just about everywhere. From unvarnished human drama to flights of unfettered comic fantasy, from unabashed pathos to unsurpassed observational wit, Arlo & Janis is perhaps the most unpigenholeable comic strip ever. It also invents new words!
The characters Arlo and Janis have played the parts of mermaids, squirrels, alligators and grasshoppers over the years, all while exploring the unexaggerated human condition and managing to become, with their son Gene, perhaps the most believable family in the funny pages. This unique approach has garnered Arlo & Janis an intelligent and engaged readership and guaranteed that a percentage of it will be confused at any given moment. However, readers eagerly return every day for another quaff from what has been the holy grail for a generation of comic-strip authors: quintessential Boomer humor.

You know you’re getting older when you look at the daily ‘Famous people born on this date’ column and realize you are older than more of them.

Middle age and older. It’s six PM on a Friday, the phone rings and you hope it’s a wrong number.

ok, I’m doing the genealogy of my family and I’ve got lots of pictures of my immediate ancestors (3-4 generations), and I’ve been looking at lots of older movies, and I’ve been wondering the same thing (I enjoy how Jimmy Johnson reflects the thoughts of this/my generation so well), and I came up with a distinct possiblity (there could be more). Cigarette smoking and the lack thereof. Think about this and look at some of our current show biz people and guess who still smokes too much.

My age reality check is whenever I deal with some form of health care professional. Usually the first question they ask after they fine out who you are is, “What is your date of birth?”
Talk about destroying your self image of being only as old as you feel!

“. . . guess who still smokes too much.”
Good point, MikeFromMichigan. My father smoked two packs a day (plus drank too much) and died at 59. His sister didn’t do either, and lived to be 86. None of the people in my outfit smoke, and the seventeen of us range in age from 69 to 90, median age late 70’s. The eighteenth one died two years ago, and he had smoked. This sample, of course, is not scientific, but I see the pattern repeated elsewhere.
