Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for December 27, 2014

Colonoscopy? (I assume a vasectomy would be unnecessary, now.)

Schedule your passion 2 weeks in advance

Arlo is approaching the age where a little “heads up” (no pun) will be appreciated.

If the candy shop is closed he might need to go elsewhere for sweets!

“No appointment necessary” is the preferred statement.

in other words – not tonight, I’m tired?

Arlo should ask if there is price matching in case he gets a better deal elsewhere.

So it’s not a gift certificate as much as a rain check.

Hopefully the gift that keeps on giving….

Where’s the spontaneity? Wheres the “Woop! Howdja-do, maam”? :-)

That face on Janis 2nd panel would curdle milk. Arlo should be happy for the fine print tonite.

I know it’s only a comic, but I don’t like Janis. The son is grown, she doesn’t work outside the house and has plenty of time to have a little fun with Arlo and doesn’t.

Beam him up, Scotty!

The kind of gift that is much easier to give after the children have moved away…

People change with age..She can have a vote on it as well..Can’t be fun if one of them doesn’t want to be involved at the time.

It is said that to remain in the spontaneous is to remain in the superficial. Along with that, go ahead and book an appointment for some whoopee. The anticipation will just drive you nuts, which can be a good thing when it comes to whoopee.

Very strange…if you notice in panel #2, Janis is wearing a neck to ankle flannel nightie.But… in panel #4, it seems as if she is wearing a baby doll type nightie… or less?Perhaps she is disrobing while he expostulates.

I am not particularly sanguine about the future of any marriage wherein a gift certificate & an appointment are required for that.
