For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for January 24, 2011

Well, if you don’t mind…

John has quite a sense of humor. After their romantic evening last week, I don’t think he’s serious.

You asked for it, Elly. You can’t blame John for being honest.

Look but don’t touch is fine, but maybe not so obviously…..especially when you’re with your wife! lol

look but don’t touch, ok, ogle, well… :þ

I think John will be taken home, how is up to him.

\\//_

Go for the comic spinoff, John! Send Elly home and stay in paradise…

I agree with paul345. Sure, she’s nice to look at, but get that stupid grin off your face and don’t make it so obvious!

What’s good for the goose…

LOL Oh, Elly, you had to ask!

Just a reminder that buying sea horses and tortoise shell and probably the other shells are VERY bad ideas and contribute to wiping those species out. Animal-based souvenirs should be avoided. Shame on Lynn Johnston for suggesting they’re okay.

Maybe Elly should ogle some guys in Speedos to show John how it feels…. He’s definitely got it coming if he’s that obvious!

He wants to take home an STD.

Just because you’re on a diet, it doesn’t mean that you can’t look at the menu

Judging from the fact the marriage lasted long enough to go into reruns, I’d say he’s joking with her.

:-)

It would be too expensive to take her home.

We can hope that the shells/etc. being sold were found on the beach. Those will not tend to destroy a species, because they’re already dead.

John, like most other men, is attracted to women, and Thank Goodness for it. Ogling women is almost a reflex, and it does not reflect negatively upon a man’s love for his wife. Women respond similarly to babies; it’s instinctive to look and take pleasure in looking, and it doesn’t mean they actually want to have another baby.

Elly would do well to be glad that her husband likes women and, therefore, is capable of loving her.

It’s not disrespectful to anyone if you look at a baby and think it’s cute. But it is disrespectful for John’s eyes to almost pop out of his head and have a stupid, goofy-looking grin on his face looking at another woman while his wife is standing right there next to him! And if a man doesn’t have enough sense not to do something like that in front of his wife, then he probably would have a hard time adhering to the “look but don’t touch” concept, as well.

he’s married not dead

I like Lynn’s comments on this one:

“Hmmm….no thoughts here….let’s skip to the next one!”

Don’t be so offended, everyone, John is obviously just hamming it up to stick the landing on the joke.

Sorry John…she’s WAY too expensive to care for!

If John thinks Elly is high maintenance, then he definitely wouldn’t want a girl like this as a wife!

Tortoise shell jewelry and a seahorse? As an environmentalist I am not happy with this. Have you not heard about endagered species? Please post an apology.
