Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for August 13, 2020

Has anybody kissed somebody their own age as a small child?

He’s doomed.

Suppose she was told it was “Kissing”?? Gene might be a little intimidated.

Yes, but until I got busted in front of my mother by a tattle tale, mostly the older 5th and 6th grade ladies at school. The one who tattled was one that I left out. Hey, we went to the same church so that kind of thing was not cool.

I was accused of being a spoiler yesterday so I will forbear.

Walk this way! Talk this way! Well just gimme a kiss! Ohh, a-like this!

My first kiss was in the 7th grade. I was NOT impressed.

She will.

You mean besides my mommy?

There does not seem to have been any in between ground take-it-slow-and-easy pace for Gene even way before the hormones kicked in to gear.

Jezebel! Pre-teen trollop! Post-toddling tart! ;-D

I wonder if Jimmy had in mind for them to grow up and wind up getting together when he first did this? :D

Spoiler alert. She’s the one! Not (precocious) Ruth. Not (hot hot) Sondra.

I wonder if this 1961 Ricky Nelson hit didn’t influence Jimmy J in some way. The lyrics are soooo close to this relationship.

Only when she was willing!

grocery shopping yesterday- ‘what the world needs now’ playing- my glasses misted- this time not the mask- – this strip is a good reminder of what we all need now- thanks Jimmy

More kissing and less hating…..Maybe the 60’s had something!

How come this never happened to me when I was 9?

Gene and Mary sittin’ in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

I asked my 69 year old friend why he got married at 19, and he said it was because he and his then girlfriend had to because they got that kissing disease.

P1: It looks as if they are in a snowy field next to a frozen pond.

So, does she? Marry him I mean

I enjoy kissing.

Don’t worry…she will…

Some might call her a “fast girl” (lol)

She was pushy and domineering – even THEN!

after she shops around

This kind of attitude can get you pregnant when you’re really young!
