Greetings everyone!
I wanted my return this month to be memorable and frozen testes are just that. Naked Yoga Time will be my challenge to see how many poses I can put Jeff into without exposing Mr. Happy. Challenge accepted. Also, welcome back everyone’s favorite fire-breathing pet lizard, Poco! Haven’t seen him since the last run in with the Mystic Frog back in 2014. He’ll be joining Jeff and helping hide Mr. Happy as any good pet would do.
Credit where credit is due… A long-time reader is into naked yoga and he inspired this comic. So hat’s off to you readers for inspiring me.
Okay, as you may or may not know, my dog of 16 years passed away last month. The previous six weeks before that was a hectic time of caring for an aging dog who frequently could not get up or hold his bowels. So, I was rather preoccupied with taking care of Snickers, and having the vet observe his health. That is why I have been absent from here since the end of April. With that said, let’s move on to happier topics.
During that time period though, I was motivated to rewrite and layout the pages for the “Taking On New York” story! This story has been in my head for years and for various reasons, it never really came to fruition. It’s a big story too involving several famous locations from New York City in 1977. At the core of the story is the famous 1977 Blackout from that summer and the gang recording their infamous first album that ended up ranking #5 on the top ten worst rock albums of the 1970s. You’ll read all about it very soon as I’m beginning to sketch out pages now.
And what song starts off by telling you to “Relax, take it easy…”? Well it’s “Fooling Yourself” by Styx. Just don’t listen to it naked, sitting on a cold floor.
At least they are not stuck to the floor from Freezing….think positive. I have that STYX album and was listening to it on my record player the other day.
Since I purchased a new turntable last Christmas, I’ve been pulling out all of my old albums to see how they have held up over the last 40+ years. Most are in great shape as I generally recorded my albums to cassette or reel-to-reel tape. But “The Grand Illusion” has also held up well musically as it’s still a good listen.
Still have my stereo from my childhood, this stereo has Radio, cassette, Record and 8 track playing capabilities, I even have about 10 – 8 tracks, (2) STYX tapes, Foreigner and mostly Ted Nugent
Do Not do naked yoga if you have cats!
Cats + dangling things = bad.
Ha! Yes, that’s a good rule of thumb! 🙂
I don’t see what this has to do with fermented milk.
Seems you found those funny mushrooms in your backyard again. 🙂
My son bought me a turntable for xmas that hooks up to my computer and converts straight to MP3, the sound is pretty good especially through a pair of decent headphones, ones without all the extra bass that distorts everything, luckily I have a 1/4 to 1/8 adapter and an ancient set of Blaupunkts I used to use in my radio days, I just have to get around to transcribing everything so I can pack the records away, wonder if they make one for cassettes ? 🙂
Indeed they have converters now for cassette tapes.
My turntable has a USB connection, standard RCA stereo outputs, as well as Wi-F- connectivity. I’m using it with the USB so I can record some tracks off to WAV files.
I know what you mean about current headphones having way too much bass. Not sure what is up with that. Also, I absolutely hate earbuds. They really hurt my ears after like only 5 minutes. I have some lightweight Koss headphones now that are decent. I need to invest in some good headphones now that I’m spinning so many records while I work.
Most headphones today are complete garbage, the ‘hiphop’ crowd wants so much bass you can’t hear anything else and the overpriced trash they push out does deliver that, and nothing else.
You simply can’t find a decent pair of headphones in a store anymore, you have to search online and read the specs.
Earbuds are the worst, they aren’t capable of the response a real pair of phones can give, the Blaupunkts I have are well over 40 years old and they still sound a hundred times better, the other old full-cup pairs I have are almost as good even if my hearing is pretty much shot to begin with.
And this Yoga mats were invented in the US.
And you can bet they were invented after a similar event happened to the person who created them.
Sitting them on a cold floor beats sitting ON them…
Women have us beat with the pain of child birth, but second in line is getting the twins crunched or smashed. I have three older sisters, so my first bicycles were girl’s bikes with no center bar. The very first time I actually rode a boy’s bike I slammed the family jewels on that damn bar and was on the ground for a very long time as my friends laughed at me.
Just remind them that getting kicked in the crotch is far more painful than childbirth, they’ll argue but point out that she wanted a second kid but you never want to get kicked again…worked for me but now I have to keep a close watch on her feet whenever she gets mad 😉
Tell Poco to be careful where he stands.
Hope Poco isn’t too cold maybe he could warm Jeff’s cold loins at the risk of frying them or at the least burning off the pubic hair gross. Jeff better not leave skid marks or it’s rump roast with Poco’shot fire or clean the floors in diapers. Of course neutering Jeff is an option he could spend the rest of his life sounding like Newton the formerly horny centaur. Hercules caught him harassing Helen so she had Hercules neuter Newton his first labor. Newton saying Helen “I’m gods gift to women” then saying “no Herc nooooo” sounding like Mr Bill from Saturday Night live “Oh my balls oh my balls.” What did the steer say to the bull? “Moooo my balls” and the cowboys ate them as prairie oysters what did the hog say to the boar? “Oink oink my balls they were ether added to stew or ground by the butcher into sausages oh the irony. PBS had a Yoga show but they were not nude. The moral to Jeff stop being gross and leaving skid marks or he’ll be changed to Jeffa with or without the mystic frog and Poco gets twin treats.
Is Jeff Persian I know besides his fabulous blond hair he’s not Barbara Eden so Larry Hagman Major Nelson won’t get any magic from him. Jeff won’t be as much use to major Heely or doctor Ballows just not NASA astronaut material love the TV show had shots of century series planes and 1960s space rockets . But Barbara Eden was hot in Jeanne and in the movie Harper Valley PTA looks great in a miniskirt maybe turn Jeffa into Jeffa and have him wear a mini.
