Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for January 05, 2014
Transcript:
Luann: "Every year I make a list of New Year's resolutions: get organized, clean my room, eat less junk, be more patient, don't let Tiffany bug me..." Luann: "And every year I tell everyone about my resolutions to pressure me to keep them. But by February first, I've forgotten every resolution, and I'm back to my old habits. So I'm done with that" Bernice: "Really? No resolutions this year?" Luann: "What? No, I made the usual list. But #1 is "Don't say anything to anyone about you resolu--"" Luann: "Oh, CRUD" Bernice: "And still 26 days 'til February! You're on a roll!"

I think Puddles let out a “Freudian Yawn” there, as Lu was reading off her list…

Okay, Bern, what are your resolutions?
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
That’s like the Johnny Cash song: “I Forgot To Remember To Forget”…. – Any of these for a nice listen: here<//a> – here – or here, even…

“Brought to you” by….L’Aim… “In new flavors!… ‘GingerVital’, ‘Tartar Sauce’, and ‘Peppermint….Sundae’!….” – Off Mark’s…. “Mark’s bargain clearance stores, featuring discounted apparel, such as ‘El Fitting’, and ‘Gordon Gartrelle’!…” – Tarzhay’s….. “Don’t miss Tarzhay’s ‘5 minutes sale’, this week!…” – And by…The Lifetime Non-Achievement Awards… “Check your local ‘TV Lied’ secret specially coded listings for time and channel!”…

I guess this also marks the “Upteenth Anniversary” of Luann’s resolution-ing…. a quick jog over to “Luann Againn” will seem just like you’re reading today’s…… – Only with a few more words…. and some different goals…and they look like they did back then… and the room is arranged a bit differently….. and stuff was a bit cheaper… and different shows were on TV… and….

I…I’m not sure!… I just ignored that spinny thing… I just thought it was an MP4 player playing in the background…. maybe that thing that said “Sun” was something to keep the house warm… like it spins, and the friction and all warms up the place, better than a few logs!… – Yeah, that must be why it said “Sun” on it…(XD)
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
Yeah, that sounds like an air transference system… with a hollow match to simultaneously cause the friction, and conduct the harmful air away….

Groovy, you say?… Hmm… sounds about right…if memory serves me correctly, that word was used a lot back then, in the days when poodles wore skirts and all the CDs were bigger, with funny colors, and Forest Gump showed LBJ his “dark side of the moon” and all….

Well, now I’m going to have to make it a goal to erase my eyes!… on second thought, I’ll just have to erase my “Forrest Gump” VHS (And don’t everybody act as if you don’t have any VHSs laying around!!!…)

You got THAT right!
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
Yeahhhh…. I’m glad they don’t!… My eyes are tired already, and that application of technology would be abuse to them, ha ha!!!…. That’s one kind of Blue I can do without! - I guess the cure is to now look at my Mrs. as she so peacefully slumbers, until I end up imitating her, except with a snoring sound, Lol!…

Luann obviously likes Bern a lot… or, she’d be smacking her “upside the head”, pretty much anytime they spend time together.
watmiwori almost 11 years ago
Wouldn’t help! If she made such a resolution, she’d never be able to keep it!

Okay I’ve got a QUESTION:
How EVERY time Bernice Comes to Luann’s Room SHE Is MADE to Sit On The FLOOR?
Is THAT Some Kinda “Female Power Trip” Thing???

“…for a Sacramento Kings basketball game where we lost ………. again. LOL, should have finished up the inventory.” ^S’Alright, no worries! Wow! Lost on both counts… Try having all your sports teams lose on the same weekend, or at least in the span of 2 weeks!… Actually, I do have one left… and I’m hoping that all of them can make their goal to not stink on ice! this year/next year, ha ha!… – Wow, hope the guy was ok…. that just means that the U.S. version of Futbol is getting closer to the European Model

I didn’t know Bernice was into ultra-marathons or the science of the sport.
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
You know something?…. G-man likes plans…. Lu likes to make plans… their relationship could be most beneficially symbiotic…. – Yeah…. with Gunther around, ol’ Lu would be able to have help in really keeping those resolutions!!…..Yeah…one more reason to reconsider some “Gunther Love”!…

What are friends for but to trip you up for a gag-line!

Just because you break the resolution doesn’t mean you have to give up on the idea all together.

Bernice just likes sitting on the floor, not bed.____________________________________

Nice to see Luann and Bernice and Puddles altogether in Luann’s bedroom…haven’t seen that scene for quite awhile…some of their best dialogue happened in that venue… ;)

Interesting choice of reading material Bernice—Born to Run. Not something I would have thought she would be interested in.
