Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for December 26, 2012

Arlo should know better than to say anything at all. Doghouse time is here.

Perhaps just from a different point of view or angle?

Hard to miss Janis’ sexual connotation: “You get that every year…..Don’t you want something different?” To which Arlo hesitates and then says, “Well…”, suggesting that he might like a change (kidding I’m sure). She swats him as though he were suggesting a 3some, new lover, etc. (In like manner, she is playfully hitting, knowing he’s happy with what he has.)

Perhaps we see Janis wearing a blond wig next Christmas Eve??

Don’t ask a question you don’t know the answer to.

I know what’s on Arlo’s mind …………

My take: Arlo’s just thinking up new variations, not new faces (or hair, or whatever).

A while back, a fellah parked his Harley next to my Shadow, sharing the car slot parking space. I thanked him for making my bike look better by parking there, and he laughed. As we chatted, he told me his wife called his Harley the “mid life crisis” machine. I told him, tell your wife that a Harley is a sign you’ve ‘arrived’ at a place in your life, but a mid life crisis was having an 18 year old girlfriend instead of your wife of 20+ years as a back rest.Next time I saw him, his wife was with him and we shared a good laugh.Janis might consider buying Arlo the Karma Sutras for Valentines Day, and then it can be Christmas all through the year.Mischievously,C.

this is why on ComicsIDon’tUnderstand suggestive comics that make it into the paper go on the Arlo Page. http://comicsidontunderstand.com/wordpress/category/arlo-page/

Boot to the head!

Some traditions should be carried out all year, unless it’s a “super-special” (i.e. Birthday, 4th of July, St. Swithin’s Day etc.).

Whatever it is, I hope he gets it more often than just at Christmastime.

Janis is the gift that keeps on giving…. Arlo’s one lucky dude

Knock it off Janis!

Hey, at least he gets it every year! I could tell you the last time I got it; but I won’t.
