Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for February 05, 2021

Now day’s it’s all about science caused by men. Or was it China/

coughtoplesscough

Nearing the end of the Year of the Rat.

I’ve had Monday last for a week and a half.

It’s still early. Don’t lose hope yet. :)

One star does have an impact on our daily life. It’s called Sol.

And don’t forget the Moon. I’ll let that thought tide you over til tomorrow. ;-)

The science has recently shown that the planet Jupiter also had more than a little influence, along with the sun and moon.

Every atom is tugging on every other atom.

Still wondering what Luddie saw under the furniture yesterday.

Subtle reference to Groundhog Day in the 2nd panel.

Jimmy, let’s make the woman in panel 3 a recurring character!

Look at American history. We always rebound from crisis, natural or man made, better than ever. Wars, depressions, civil strife. Sometimes we learn right away, sometimes it takes a couple of times to get it right. But we rebound.

Jimmy’s hunch was right… his website blew up.

Ignorance is not restricted to prehistoric mankind.

Chronological snobbery is a thing. The joke here is that we’re as bad as the people we look down on.

The universe doesn’t know it’s 2021 nor does it care.

From The Atlantic: When the unseen tug of celestial bodies points Earth toward a new North Star, for instance, the shift in sunlight can dry up the Sahara, or fill it with hippopotamuses. Arlo’s conclusion doesn’t hold water!

What’s up with the woman in panel 3, does she have an evelope stuck to her lips ?

Panel 1 got me all excited like a school kid….a woman topless, sadly I got ready for my shower, Jimmy drew me…..GROAN!

Daily life IS governed by the nearest star in the sky, at least for most of us, and in many ways. Sleep when it’s gone, work and play under it’s watchful eye.

Cassius:“The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,But in ourselves, that we are underlings.”

So, religion was invented to explain the universe, failed … but is still around. Go figure.

We still call it “influenza” because it was thought to be under the influence of the stars and planets.

It appears the nation is beginning to look like a democracy again at least.

we went from a half wit to a nit wit that’s progress

Today is the first day of the rest of your life. No, wait … that was yesterday.

Agreed, Arlo…FU 2021, from everyone who has lost somebody to covid.

Hope is a dead end. Just be prepared.

I can’t seem to get on arloandjanis.comanyone else?

Every time some one says the stars have no influence on our lives, I think “Well if ours went out you might wanna’ rethink that”…

2021 will make 2020 seem like the good old days.

2020 was a test run. 2021 will be training. 2022 is going to be the challenge.

Omgosh wake up! WRONG!!!

“2021 isn’t any picnic!”

That doesn’t guarantee that there won’t be any ants.

Unless one of them smashes into the Earth!
