   A mulligan? If sharks know what a mulligan is, that implies they play golf. I suppose they have no fear of water hazards!

   That crick in Brad’s neck sure got better in a hurry after TJ’s pep talk!

   You can do what you love at work, but have to contend with miserable bosses, co-workers, customers, commute, etc. I enjoyed what I did, but the mounting paper work and having to answer to a chain of management (from a merger) who knew nothing of the business other than “How much money are we making?” drained any enthusiasm I had for work. I’m retired now, and not one time in 3 years have I thought “Gee, I’d rather be working at the ol’ job today.” I’ve worked hard my entire career and am now truly enjoying retirement.

   It looks like Cliff’s alter is at least good at something. I have to admit, I barely recognized him when he was wearing that cape!

   I’m betting Jimbo might find this particular yoga exercise a bit more interesting than most.

6. about 2 hours ago on Arlo and Janis

   Don’t pay any attention to Arlo’s response, Janis! I have never heard any man say any of the following about his gal:

   Gosh I wish she wasn’t such a good cook!

   I’m really disappointed she is taking cooking lessons.

   I’d find her more attractive if only she didn’t know how to cook so well.

   Remind me to thank my mother-in-law for not teaching her anything in the kitchen, and I’m glad she kept her favorite lasagna dish recipe a secret!

   I wish she didn’t cook so much food! We have leftovers every night and all the guys at work give me a hard time because it smells so good to them at lunch!

   A well fed man has lots energy to do things for his girl! That will keep Janis happy because when Arlo has a lot of energy and is rarin’ to go, she’ll will have him tend to something that will really get her excited and hand him that “Honey do” list.

   I know that’s not quite the way Arlo would like to spend his energy, but still….

   I used to be a certified roller skating dance instructor. I taught people how to do waltzes, tangos, foxtrots, etc. on roller skates. Believe it or not, the most common injury from a fall on roller skates is a broken wrist. The skates will roll out from under the skaters and they instinctually reach back with their palms down right next to their caboose in the attempt to mitigate the fall they’re about to experience. There are many tiny bones in the wrist that were never meant to absorb the full impact from the thump of the body’s weight incurred during the fall, thus the importance of wearing wrist guards when beginning to learn how to skate. (A helmet and knee guards aren’t a bad idea, either, especially if you’re roller blading outdoors!)

   Becoming very good at skating doesn’t prevent you from falling, it’s just the fact you don’t fall as often. Ironically, the better you are at skating, the more severe the injuries get when you do fall because you just aren’t expecting to do so; it takes you by great surprise when it happens and you are not prepared for it.

   By golly, Calvin put in a lot of focus clicking that remote in the third panel! One only sticks one’s tongue out when concentrating your hardest at the task at hand!

   I never wore a helmet riding a bike as a kid, but if I ever have the uncontrollable urge to learn how to ride a unicycle, I would. I’m shocked Frazz chose to wear a hat instead of a helmet when riding his uni in today’s strip. Actually, now that I think of it, I don’t recall many times that Frazz has ever worn a hat…but maybe my memory doesn’t remember such things well.

    Thank goodness Elizabeth didn’t get a box full of fine tipped magic markers! Michael might have told April that they need to go through the “magic marker sharpener” before they worked!
