Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for June 22, 2023

I see where this is going.

Waste not, want not

Here’s the companion strip from waaaaay back in 1994: https://www.gocomics.com/arloandjanis/1994/12/21

And now the days get shorter and shorter, and darker and darker, and colder and colder, and then when the days are as short and dark and cold as they can get, that’s the first day of winter.

“Day, me say day-ay-ay-o”

These two are so hot that if they went to see the midnight sun the polar ice cap would disappear.

Softly playing on the IPAD…‘Let’s Get It On’, Marvin Gaye

Brown chicken brown cow…

Now that my wife and I are retired, anytime is daylight time.

Extra daylight and getting up earlier just took on a new meaning.

So does everyone else.

I’ve always loved Janis’s knowing smirks. They should publish a paperback of them…

Pretty sure Jimmy’s got a sketchbook of Arlo’n’Janis comics he doesn’t share with anyone else.

I still go to bed at my usual time.

Daylight matters in their bedroom?

I admire Arlo’s talent for finding new ways to suggest his desires. I spend too much time with the thesaurus trying timprove the quality of my entreaties. Being clever does not come naturally for me like it does with Arlo.

Little Arlo rising to the occasion?

as we say in our home…. ‘HubbaHubba’ …

I love the long daylight hours of summer.

Just how early do they go to bed?

bow chicka wow wow!!!!

I’d would remember that line, but we never seem to get to bed until after 10

How nice of Arlo to offer to finish all the chores around the house.

Arlo does not need daylight for what he has in mind. He would suggest the same activity in a power outage, a blizzard, a heat wave, etc.

I love Janis.

That sly devil…

go Arlo!

I would agree….

Smirk, smirk.
