Maybe Iāll check back in another week. Just canāt deal.

Someone suggested, earlier this week, that the big guy would hit on Luann. I guess you get the prize.

Arty McSurlymugg definitely has what it takes to be a true artist. He knows that ZĆ©boās full of it!

Now the question is, will Luann and Jock Strap hit it off?

Keep lookinā Lu. I doubt art is your passion and he is not your type.

Bernice got all fired up about finding her own life passion, due to the influence of Luann. But over a few weeks of questionable interactions, that quest has not come to a conclusion at all.-However, Iām guessing that a big change is right around the corner for Luann, and that it will probably be shocking. Iād hope so, because after the buildup thatās been going for months, anything less than that would be anticlimactic.

Maybe The Cyclops boy is on the right track. There are, and have been, many very talented artists but they are mostly lost in the deluge of other very fine artists. What they turn out doesnāt stand out. Every summer we go to the Ann Arbor street art fairs, where there are hundreds of artists. With the University of Michigan as a backdrop, I just trail along and wait for something to just āpopā for me, to stand out, to be unique. Not that many actually ring my bell and draw me in for a closer look.

Iāll admit it ā now I want to see Hatty McEmoFaceās real art work.

Actually, I think that all three of these classmates should go out togetherā¦ā¦ā¦.kind of like a Larry, Moe, and Curley date.
Kymberleigh almost 9 years ago
No, Jock, itās still too soon for you to ask.

Now we are really in college! The attitudes of these three victims of the mad professor ZĆ©bo are paradigmatic responses.Will Luann go out with Jocko? Doubtful; certainly not on an āofficialā date. Maybe a group outing including Emo would work; who knows who they might run into at the WeenieWorld?

Just go out with him ,Lu,you might even have (gasp) fun.

Yo Caveman! Make Your MOVE with Lu BEFORE old One Eye does!
Now a couple of points about Ms DeGroot:
1) Sheās Loving and caring.2) She loves kids.3) She love Her Dog.4) She has this ex boyfriend named Gunther who is very jealous and has a terrible Temper and knows Ju-Jitsu.5) She is a Cultured COFFEE Drinker, as many of the Finer Folks are.6) She Just Loves being Tickled on a Soft Feather Bed with the song āMuskrat Loveā playing in the background. AND7) Her Father, Frank, is a very powerful Business Man who employs a Guy with Mob Ties that goes by the name of āMr. Grayā and if Frank finds You did Number 6 with His Little Girl, Heāll have āMr. Grayā make You Disappear like Jimmy Hoffa.
So have FUN, Ya Big Lug!

āTo see what art isnātā is just a cover answer. He is embarrassed to say he wanted to learn something.

Not thrilled with the jock stereotype, even if it is 80% true.
ACTIVIST1234 almost 9 years ago
The first time Lu refers to a career when she uses the word āpassionā, sheās misconstrued. Jock, you know her too well!
seismic-2 Premium Member almost 9 years ago
Actually, Mr. Jock (is his first name maybe āJacquesā?) seemed actually to enjoy creating his art in this class, particularly drawing his dogs, and he takes pride in what he produced. It is in fact Luann who could find an easy āAā beneficial on her transcript. Emu has totally different ideas about art from his teacherās, so I suppose he represents Greg Evans when he was an art major in college.
ACTIVIST1234 almost 9 years ago
Ok, Lu, have coffee with Jock (or a beer if itās legal in your state). Then run into Tiff. Betcha sheād be jealous and hit on Jockā that too would be a great (temporary) pairing.
Darsan54 Premium Member almost 9 years ago
I absolutely HATE how artists are depicted as emotionally stunted, contrary and incompetent. They can be dedicated, intense and accomplished.
Pipe Tobacco Premium Member almost 9 years ago
6I like āEmoryāsā (Emoās) stance on his own art, even though I think calling school art ābogusā is a bit strong. To me, school art is a way to learn some basic techniques and to explore different forms of art making that are commonly done. A true artist will take those experiences, and will be able to use either some of the techniques, forms, or experiences to make his art more transformative. While I think it would be interesting for āJacqueā (Jock) to go on a date with Luann, I think it should be laterā¦. not now. I am still feeling a bit overloaded on Luannās ālove lifeā after all the Luann/Quill focus. I would rather keep seeing Luann do something OTHER than seeking a relationship for the time being.
wilstjb almost 9 years ago
They both like dogs.
ndblackirish97 almost 9 years ago
Go for it, Luann. Add ājockā to your new life experiences.

football scholarship to community college?
Willow Mt Lyon almost 9 years ago
āA whole year of art,ā Luann said on Monday. Iām wondering if Gregg has put the last two years into one year Luann time so that this is really the end of her freshman year of college instead of her sophomore year. Any thoughts on this?
RSH almost 9 years ago
Oh pulleeeze letās not go there.
RSH almost 9 years ago
Luann could say.. āHey I know a girl who likes football players that you should meetāā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
SukieCrandall Premium Member almost 9 years ago
Brd, i wanted to let you know that the garment you showed on Sunday was 1.5" longer in the trunk than one brand he has and 1" longer than the others, so the best fit yet! We have more on order in his size! Thank you from my hubby and from me!

Hey, I like this football jock. Heās refreshingly candid!

Give Mr. Neanderthal a shave, glasses, suit and tie, and a wide brimmed hat: You have Clark Kent. Heās got the jaw line, too.
seismic-2 Premium Member almost 9 years ago
No, we donāt know very much at all about Mr. Jock. That means that we nevertheless know more about him than we do about Piro, and we know only slightly less about him than weāve ever learned about Quill. (Note that all 3 characters have only a single name, since they are too superficial to merit further identification.)

Keep asking kid.Some will go with the first to ask.I know one couple with 45 years together since he was the first to work up the nerve to ask her out.
SukieCrandall Premium Member almost 9 years ago
He does not care one way or another about the color, so that is fine.
RSH almost 9 years ago
My guess (I hope) is that Jock is just being Jock and that like before, nothing will come of his comment. Luann is talking to Emo and may not even be aware of Jockās request.

more dumpster diving fun!!

Perhaps Luannās life passion will be being a grade school librarian.
Lamberger almost 9 years ago
Or intermediate schoolā¦.
SukieCrandall Premium Member almost 9 years ago
She is only about 19 now in the Luanniverse, with minimal exposure to the options life has. Granted, Luann has liked things she has done and has been very good at some of them, but there are so many possibilities that could wind up exciting the character but which she has never tried. Some kids know early what they want to be, but many more discover that later.
luann1212 almost 9 years ago
I think the romance possibility between the jock and Luann are remote at best. However being a good and loyal friend are strong. He is actually a friend to mr. Emo/Goth, who is a 100% different person. I have known some non-arrogant jocks over the years, and they can be terrific people. Of course, going to an all-boys Catholic school I have plenty of opportunity to know the other arrogant kind too. I am proud to say my own son also went to an all-boys Catholic football power school, and he was one of the non-arrogant jock types, and he still is that way. Terrific person too, but I am biased of course. -:) I donāt know where this arc is going, but for one thing I think its a tension release arc after all the drama with Gunther and Bernice and tangentially Piro. But the romantic angle with Luann and the jock guy, no I donāt see it.
SukieCrandall Premium Member almost 9 years ago
What if what is going on ātonightā is a charity event Jock finds interesting as a learning option, or a seminar on figuring out personal interests and strengths? Granted, he has often been interested in Luann, but what if this time he is just going to tell her about something that coukd interest her and open new learning options?
SukieCrandall Premium Member almost 9 years ago
Spoiler: sheās with Clueless. Naw, not that wayā¦
gozar almost 9 years ago
Luann should introduce Mopey Dude to Bernice.
