Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for January 26, 2023

The ole Wizard two-step

Of all the nerve

Better make it a double, Wiz!

“A spoonful of sugar,” etc.

Now don’t be a scarredy-cat! Just down it in one long gulp and you will get your courage to down it!

Wiz doubts his abilities?

Where is some Dutch Courage when you need it?

It’s called tequila…

♫♪

I took my troubles down to Wiz’s booth

You know that wizard with the gold-capped tooth

He’s got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine

Sellin’ little bottles of…Courage Potion Number Nine

♪♫

I could have used that before my colonoscopy.

Where’s Bung when you need him. Yip yip yip yip yip

This rather reminds me of taking meds, today. But, instead of a chaser to let the meds pass, I need to Google the meds to make sure the cure isn’t worse than the disease.

Don’t you DARE take that potion, Rod! Never change.

Courage does not come from a bottle.

Sounds like modern medicine.

Like when they give you a shot so the shot won’t hurt.

People are going to learn to appreciate medicine better if they keep getting the wizard’s potions.

I thought Jack Daniels and Jim Bean sold that.

Courage potion? Around here we just call that beer.

He’s not that brave.

“Yeah come and get it. El Scorpio is readyyyy.”

Eagles “Tequila Sunrise”: ♪ “Take another shot of courage” ♪

Oy!

Think twice about anything you have never thought about once.

Tiny steps.

Perfect for him…..
