Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for January 19, 2016

Do I sense a makeover in the near future?

An attempted makeover, but disappointment, for there;s no improvement.

I dunno. Same ol’, same ol, worked for Steve Jobs. I guess it’ll work for Arlo.

Went from folded and neat to wrinkled and saggy. Story of my life.

maybe Arlo’s wearing a size too large?

Need to iron out the wrinkles ON THE BODY!!!!

Most practical outfit: Comfortable shoes or moccasins…Jeans, T-shirt, and a flannel shirt, open or buttoned as needed….Very handy in the summer, If I don’t need it, I tie it around my waist, when I go into one of those freezing cold restaurants, I can put it on, it takes the chill off….Outside, as the evening cools, it can be on and open, or on and buttoned, or buttoned with the sleeves rolled up…..Different ways to heat and cool….Very flexible..

Uh Oh! Arlo might get out his monk’s robe again! No tellin’ where this one will go!

Yes, it’s time.

Arlo and Janis both look like they always have, to me. Size is in the eyes of the beholder.

He’s pretty tall comparing his height to that of the door….

Hmm, is Arlo going to get the work out bug??

Wife sleeps late. I get up, turn on heat, let dog (German shepherd) out in fenced yard, start coffee, check Email, , find jeans and teeshirt at random in dark, and get newspapers. Great way to start a day.

“I’m starting with the man in the mirrorI’m asking him to change his waysAnd no message could have been any clearerIf you want to make the world a better placeTake a look at yourself, and then make a change…”

Michael Jackson; American pop singer

I can relate Arlo – I can make a bed look rumpled just by walking in the room

I think the point is that the clothes were carefully hung to avoid wrinkles (probably by Janis). He puts them on and they immediately become wrinkled.

Yup. Thats you.

On the bed, so neat and wrinkle free. etc

“Oh, that’s the way, uh-huh, uh-huhI like it, uh-huh, uh-huhThat’s the way, uh-huh, uh-huhI like it, uh-huh, uh-huhThat’s the way, uh-huh, uh-huhI like it, uh-huh, uh-huhThat’s the way, uh-huh, uh-huhI like it, uh-huh, uh-huh”.(And they said we didn’t have good, thoughtful music ! ! )

Arlo can’t afford to get too slim. You have to remember that you can’t drive a spike with a tack hammer.

Did I miss something funny here?

Another very vague Arlo strip. Especially when it prints in black & white, as it did in my paper. In that version it’s a white shirt and white pants! I thought the joke was “oh bollocks, I can’t wear a white shirt with white pants!!”
