Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for December 08, 2020

As someone who frequently works in cold conditions while wearing a mask… this is actually not wrong, I’ve found the mask helps keep my face warm.

Jack, you wouldn’t want to nip our noses.

It’s better than roasting on an open fire.

Poor Jack Frost doesn’t get any respect here.

Mr. Jack, look elsewhere for a snack.

At least he can frost up some glasses.

Very clever Mr Parisi, excellent.

haha…Although a mask should cover mouth AND NOSE, I see a lot of exposed noses. Just sayin’

As someone who lives in Florida, I love that it helps keep my face OUT OF THE SUN!

Hey, Jack… plenty of Republican noses you can nip…

Cheer up, Jack. So many glasses to fog.

You can still find plenty of people who don’t cover their noses. We had to make signs at each checkout that both nose and mouth must be covered by the mask.

Absolutely brilliant Mark!!

Not this yr

“Jawas roasting on an open fire

Sandman picking at his nose

Jedi carols being sung by a choir,

And folks dressed up like 3PO’s.

Everybody knows that matte lines and that old blue fill

Help to make this film look right

Tiny little ‘droids, LEDs all aglow

Will find it hard to sleep tonight.

They know that Obi-Wan is on his way

He’s loaded daddy’s old light saber on his sleigh

And every Storm Trooper is going to spy

To see if Jedi really know how to fly.

And so, I’m offering this simple phrase

To Han and Luke and Chewie too

Although it’s been said many times, many ways

May The Force Be With You."

words by Linda Von Braskat

Yet another reason to mask up.

aw….that’s cold

Well, at least Parisi allows comments. Why the hell Brooke McEldowny won’t with 9 Chickweed Lane still remains a mystery to me. I welcome any ideas.
