Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for March 07, 2018

I thought it was “move ’em OUT”.

Now I have to put on the Dead Kennedys’ version. The comics exert a powerful pressure.

Thanks for the Favor. (and the earworm.) For those who like the Frankie Laine original:

and this is a problem how??

I hate leafblowers.

Grounds Staff use Leaf Blowers @ this time of the year just justify their work time! Unnecessary noise!

Well Janis I guess it’s time to “save a horse” :)

All leaf blowers should be banned! Bring back the rake!

“Milk ’em hard! Meet their mamas!”

A classic suburban work shanty sung full voice.

Frankie Laine

“Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’

Rawhide

Keep rollin’, rollin’, rollin’

Though the streams are swollen

Keep them dogies rollin’, rawhide

Through rain and wind and weather

Hell bent for leather

Wishin’ my gal was by my side

All the things I’m missin’

Good vittles, love and kissin’

Are waiting at the end of my ride

Move ’em on, head ’em up

Head ’em up, move ’em on

Move ’em on, head ’em up, rawhide

Cut ’em out, ride ’em in

Ride ’em in, cut ’em out

Cut ’em out, ride ’em in, rawhide

Keep movin’, movin’, movin’

Though they’re disapprovin’

Keep them dogies movin’, rawhide

Don’t try to understand ’em

Just rope ’em, throw, and brand ’em

Soon we’ll be livin’ high and wide

My heart’s calculatin’

My true love will be waitin’

Be waitin’ at the end of my ride

Move ’em on, head ’em up

Head ’em up, move ’em on

Move ’em on, head ’em up, rawhide

Cut ’em out, ride ’em in

Ride ’em in, cut ’em out

Cut ’em out, ride ’em in, rawhide

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’

All the neighbors surely appreciate the music.

I am sitting her in the midst of a nor’easter. Yes the streams are swollen, however, nothin’ is rollin’. Rain and wind and weather..great excuse to stay home… ;-) Oh, btw, the phrase ‘hell bound to leather’ is a reference to a cowboy stuck to his saddle in a blizzard..until/unless you have had an old worn leather saddle get wet, turn to ice beneath you and your wool pants literally stick to it, you do not know what bound to leather means.

OOOPPPS

Maybe Dyson will design a better—-quieter—- leaf blower.

Nice art work!

Did Arlo crack his power cord as a whip? Bad idea. The force at the end of that cord could be enough to damage it

I have never known one of those orange power cords to coil so neatly as Arlo’s is.

It’s a good thing she didn’t throw a beer bottle at him, like in The Blues Brothers movie.

That’s strange. Arlo doesn’t look like Clint Eastwood.

actually, leafblowing is way more like herding cats

Are the leaves rustling? No, it is cowboy Arlo rustling leaves.

I sing loudly while mowing and blowing as well. Meatloaf Bat Out of Hell, on my earbuds keeps me singing in tune.
