Garfield by Jim Davis for July 20, 2009

I remember a time…when I first moved into my home…I was proud of that first blade of grass among all the weeds

GET TO WORK THEN! What would Liz say if she saw your yard.

Give the young blades a chance.

What with the water rationing in our town, nobody’s lawn looks good.

I fight water rationing by simply not cutting my grass, let the grass store it’s own water like it’s suppose to - I’ve never watered my lawn, but it’s still the most green in the area.

Ahh yes, that would be what my lawn would look like if it were left to my husband to mantain.

Mr.Spock, re: our conversation yesterday.

Harrison Ford getting the Han Solo part was total serendipity. Christopher Walken was originally to play the role. Harrison wasn’t allowed to audition for any parts at all. He was just part of the film crew at the time. Lucas needed someone to feed lines to the actors during rehearsals.

Ford’s performance impressed Lucas so much, he gave him the role on the spot.

Neat, isn’t it?

Good for you Jon, you don’t even need a lawn mower for this.

Winter can’t come quick enough for Jon.

Surprisingly, I still have some green grass…but the brown is spreading.

I took out 1/2 of my lawn& got some good compost (Called Natures Best - comes with bat guano), rev’ed up the roto-tiller… Et Voilà- Garden of Good Eat’n. Having a fresh picked Zuke Omlete this morning!

I don’t water the grass either - Miss Dog does that ;-)

Barney quote: Nip it in the budd…..

If we’re not careful we could turn Garfield into a movie trivia forum.

I do have grass, but its the weeds that give it that nice green colour!

Spray the green in color to make the lawn look fresh and greeny.

They won’t be entering any lawn competitions anytime soon!

MrSpock, how right you are. If only there were somewhere we could go to indulge in our movie trivia interest. I’d love a hot cuppa cocoa and a cool trivia conversation, especially on such a boring day.

There are movie trivia sites that I visit where you can take quizzes and chat with other movie buffs.

Reminds me of my lawn. Librarian, that is an interesting tidbit about Harrison Ford.

Make with the funny guys.

Jon fought the lawn, & the lawn won!! ; )

Melissa: Clever. Very.

Hey, Jon, care more about Odie, I just see you sharing with Garfield

blade of grass?
