Gardening gags are great: July 14, 1994 www.gocomics.Com/arloandjanis/1994/07/14
April 18, 1997 www.gocomics.Com/arloandjanis/1997/04/18 This one sticks in my mind because it’s the birthday of a friend who confesses that she and her boyfriend were caught by a neighbor in a similar act of gardening.
I’m a bit of an introvert. Sure I can socialize, make small talk, speak in public. I would just prefer to be at home reading or working on my latest project. Fortunately my lovely wife is much more outgoing. We make a good couple.
I am still a Republican. But I’m no Trump supporter. He isn’t a Republican, he’s an opportunist. He would be a member of the Green Party if it meant enough stroking of his ever-growing ego. But I refuse to abandon the party that once stood for conservative values but certainly knew the value of compromise and treating one’s rivals with respect. Trump and some other prominent Republicans behave with the grace and dignity of name-calling squabbling middle-schoolers.
Of course, neither party can claim the holy high ground, with constant bickering and pandering to their bases. Ronald Reagan and Tip O’Neil would be ashamed of their respective parties today and I think even JFK would be disillusioned by the party of “Ask not” and doing things “because they are had” is now the party of “here’s some free stuff”.
Wow, I got off on a rant. The strip is about Survivor. Sorry about that.
Ever since I met my lovely wife 44 years ago I have been thankful that a man’s looks are less important to woman than a lot of other factors. And yes, I make her laugh a lot. Although… it’s not always on purpose.
Please, it’s a light hearted topic today. Can you spare us the extremist political rants until after we’ve had a second cup of coffee. By we, I mean everyone reading this including our west coast friends. So you may spout some more after noon eastern time.
