Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for May 29, 2020

Does the Wiz have a neighbor named Poe? Or is he trying to teach the ravens to say “Never more.”

I remember the Hitchcock movie The Birds. Very scary.

Anytime a group of birds called a “murder” shows up, things can’t be right.

He has Tippi Hedren down there with him.

Somehow they always know!

Recycling March 12, 2020?

To quote the name of a movie: “Something Wicked This Way Comes” (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086336/)

Texas has a bird problem…swarming

Some questions are too stupid to be asked.

The first clear Mid-Evil need for “Scarecrows”.

Blanche should grab four and twenty of those blackbirds and bake them in a pie.

Id’s got mail!(How would you like to be his delivery person?)

“Never more.” all over the place.

One afternoon a large murder of crows sat cawing away in our backyard. That evening my brother-in-law suddenly and unexpectedly died.

And now poor Wiz will be made to eat crow!

Or possibly: Alfred HItchcock is planning on filming a movie there…

Just missing some thunder and lightning and you’ll feel the fear set in

Thunderbolts and lightning, very, very frightening (Queen)

Crows gather when death is near to snatch the soul and carry it to the afterlife. (Some cultures believe the crows eat the soul if they catch it and the departed doesn’t rest in peace.) https://perspectiveszine.webnode.sk/news/ravens-and-crows-in-mythology-folklore-and-religion/
