Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for December 31, 2018

Does CNN still do that “New Years’ Around the World” 24-hour gimmick?

A very happy couple.

I like the way he thinks!

But the cork has already been popped!!! #NotAEuphemism

They can always open another bottle.

Arlo & Janis. The best kissers in comics.

When my time zone arrives I am far too tired to uncork the bottle. We choose where we want to pop the champagne and it is usually in New York for us.

A great way to end one year and start another.

(♬) Anticipation, anticipation

Is makin’ me late

Is keepin’ me waitin’ (♬)

A glass per time zone? They should be snockered by midnight in Hawaii.

Happy Hogmanay, all, and a fine New Year! (Don’t forget First Foot!)

He’s not fooling anyone. By that time, they’ll be asleep.

I used to try and stay up until midnight and for many years I did. But now I go to bed at 10:30 and hope the fireworks in my neighborhood do not wake me up. I celebrate tomorrow. Because it is my birthday! I will be 77.

“That was Samoa! Be back here next for Japan!”

They just want to make sure that the New Year is SWAK!

Come on Arlo. Why wait for your time zone. How about for every time zone!!!!

Oooh, all the ball-drop joke potential…..

Time to ring in the new year with a bang!

This strip literally “Arlo andJanis.” There are no longer any others people who appear in this strip.

Every hour, on the hour…

“Remember what we did in ’69?”

“That was a very good year!”

(Yeah, I know Arlo and Janis aren’t that old… But I am ☺)

Afternoon delights at midnight! Whoteewho!!

I know this strip is called “Arlo & Janis” but I’m eager to see what Gene & Mary Lou are up to.

Looks like he won’t have to wait until their time zone.

Yeah, you’ll fall asleep by then.

Looks like the time zone won’t be the only thing coming…
