Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for January 02, 2022

I think I might steal that resolution.

So he’s not putting on the Ritz?

DON"T DO IT, ARLO! Stick with the originals. If you try the weird ones, you’ll be lost.

Food is one of joys of life. If skipping a favorite to try something different adds to that joy you’re ahead. After all that is usually how you discovered those favorites. I have a cousin who said he was actually glad that he hadn’t found feta cheese when he was younger.

I’ve tried those varieties. There wasn’t a gouda cheez-it among them.

If this year’s resolution works out, he can try M&M’s next year.

The last New Year’s resolution I ever made was somewhere around 10-15 years ago, to never again make another New Year’s resolution. It’s the only one I’ve ever kept.

He’s right. The year should start either at either solstice (when the nights in the northern hemisphere are longest) or perihelion (when the Earth is at its closest approach to the Sun) – two actual, noteworthy events that most people simply ignore.

For the record – if you weren’t paying attention, you missed solstice (December 21st). But it’s not too late to celebrate perihelion (January 4th). Grab a tan while you can – the Sun’s only 91,402,500 miles away! And tell the boss you won’t be in until the new New Year

One resolution I borrowed some years ago that I’ve been able to keep: “not becoming a jazz singer in a Venezuelan night club”.

And the result of this self-improvement will be…?

Why wait to New Years? Resolve to change something as soon as you realize it’s not right for you.

that could take awhile… unless there’s less flavors then I thought.

Now that’s funny! 8^ )

Arlo’s resolution is one that I could toast quite a few times.

(No resolution against porter on my part.)

original: good. four cheese: better. pepper jack: best…

I tried the jalepeño. Not my favourite. But all the others are very good.

I don’t know why Arlo is picking out New Year’s Day as a holiday when nothing special actually “happens”. Nothing special actually “happens” on any other holiday, either. The earth just keeps spinning on its axis, the same as it does on every other day of the year.

Italian Four Cheese is the BEST!!

Eww. Cheez-Nips are so much better!

We need to junk that stupid barbaric Roman calendar and switch to the much more civilized ancient Chinese calendar.

Arlo needs a new hat.

Nothing actually happened this past New Year’s Eve either. On TV or in my neighborhood. It was pretty boring – and that’s fine with me.

No resolutions, just took down the outdoors Xmas decorations. Depressing not to have them up. I’ll leave my little ceramic tree in the house though although the big tree’s coming down today or tomorrow.

Cheez-Its, blah!

Another attainable resolution if ever I saw one……

I feel for ya Arlo, I’ve got two half-eaten boxes of those damn things in the pantry going stale. Did finish the jalapeno flavor though.

I wish the idiots that use explosive all night long realized this. Nothing happens at Midnight, just another day. Don’t be a jerk and scare dogs and keep people awake half the night.

I liked the white cheddar ones but haven’t had them in a while. Will have to look into this Italian four cheese variety mentioned above.

WC Fields had a great chapter on New Year’s Resolutions in his book. Most were easy to keep, like resolving to touch anything marked ‘wet paint’

I don’t make resolutions… but I do set goals.

Profound, meet trivial.

Extra Toasted is the best version of Cheez-its

Everyone’s New Year should be on their own birthday.

Maybe New Year’s Day is the one day he walks with his wife. That is profound.

The comic started off well, but…..

Sure hope no one posts a comment about preferences on matters of taste!

Nope, he will try one and then buy the original and may get around to the rest next year. I made a resolution to not make resolutions years ago. It hasn’t failed me yet.

Yes, Arlo. New Years is the least Holiday Holiday there is.

Important goals in life like this give it meaning.

Years ago I resolved to not date more than 3 movie stars in a year. So far I have succeeded.

Kellogg’s company owns the Cheez it line . Kellogg’s bakery workers have been on strike for a few months now. They were recently told that replacement workers will be hired and they will be terminated .Please consider not spending your money on Kellogg items.

Stick with what you know Arlo. Stick with what you know.

My resolution for this year is to survive the year. And if I have the energy, give things away that I don’t need.

I just ignore, as best I can, such things these days.

Honestly? That resolution seems doable.
