Wizard of Id Classics by Parker and Hart for October 10, 2024

The Spook has sprouted. It’s a shaggy coat tale.

When I looked out of the window at neighbor’s sheep this morning I was hoping for something similar to Spook’s fur. I ooted for woolen socks, cardigan…

My go to weather bug is the fuzzy orange and black caterpillar, the size of the stripe. I have not seen one yet. But it is mid Oct and only 2c this morning.

As wooly as the Spook is, winter’s gonna be a bear.

Spook’s starting to look like Grog from BC. I wonder if he’s a descendent?

If the numbers of acorns already dropped continues to increase and the woolly caterpillars begin to show then maybe the old saw about their warning of a very cold damp winter will hold true.

Considering the record breaking heat of summer, it wouldn’t surprise me if central VA had record breaking snows.

Why would the king be way down in the dungeon?

Spook is starting to look like Cousin Itt.

They better get a wagon train of whiskey in before the snow starts.

The Spook is doing his best caterpillar seasonal imitation.

CAPTAAAAAAAAAIN CAAAAAAAAVEMAAAAAAAN!
