Garfield by Jim Davis for October 19, 2018

And a good night.

I’m sure Alfed Yankovic would enjoy watching that documentary with Jon.

OK, who let Jon pick the movie?

the sound of loneliness!

Hosted by a Lawrence Welk imitator.

What a loser

It would have been a safer bet to let Odie choose the movie!

The dreaded accordion. I wonder if accordion players will feel offended. The script seems to make fun of the accordion.

Still sounds a little more interesting than “Up & Down & Up & Down: The Untold Story of the Garage Door Opener”

And-a-one, and-a-two, and-a… zzzzz.

Actually, that is kind of unfair of Liz. When she choses a chick flick Jon has to sit through it and endure it too.

Accordion to wikipedia, its popular all over the world

Did I hear Lawrence Welk in he background…

Some stories should remain untold…

Well, y’know, Momma’s got a squeezebox and all….

Apparently that’s why Daddy doesn’t sleep at night …..

And the dog can’t sleep

Oh, sure, Liz, Garfield and Odie walk out now, but they’ll regret it when the movie gets to the great accordion sex scandals of the late Seventies. They don’t call it the “squeezebox” for nothing.

Oh, well. Jon was not snuggling with Liz anyhow. No sugar tonight.

looks like last night at my house. The wife and I put in jurrasic world-the recent one. by the end credits we weren’t watching.

Jon should put on one of my favorite movies: Robert Blake, Robert Conrad, Robert DeNiro, Robert Duvall, Robert Redford, Robert Urich and Robert Vaughn in…“What About Bob?”

You know it’s bad when even Odie doesn’t like the movie.

What TV station is showing that?

Depending on how the material is presented, it could be a very interesting documentary. There’s a lot of interesting content in the history of musical instruments, including how the modern forms evolved from earlier designs, how they vary from country to country, and the different performance styles used in different times and places.

BTW, if you’re ever in the Phonenix, AZ area, check out the Musical Instrument Museum. It’s a huge building dedicated to this sort of thing.

Documentaries are meant to be enjoyed alone. Sort of like porn. That’s what I heard anyway.

It’s still #1 at the box office in Wisconsin.

Polka is ok. However, there’s a lot of accordion traditional music from other cultures: Ireland, Scotland, France, Italy, Scandinavia, Ukraine, Central & South America. Lots of musical choices!

#Lasagna

I think I’m nerd enough to actually enjoy the movie!

and what is wrong with that movie?

And it will continue to be untold…

You should have known by now this was inevitable, Jon.

Garfield, Odie and Liz have left the building !!!

Laugh at Lawrence all ya want, but he was the richest entertainer of his day – he took care of his musicians – and his performances are still being played today. Read his autobiography to find out just how great he really was!

exposed!!

John is the only American who likes polka

“The accordeon was first used in 14th century Spain by Tomás de Torquemada, but even the inquisition eventually considered it to be too cruel and inhumane and therefore stopped using it…”
