Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for November 21, 2013

Google translate renders it as:

look for the head and DRESS

Lose your head at poker and you’ll be losing your shirt.

Ten high straight flush.

Liquor in the front, poker in the rear

It is surely good magic works only in Latin even if poorly then. What if it only worked in Pig Latin or in Redneck?

According to my Latin translation, the Wizard’s spell says: I shall unfold and como chapter. Apparently “como” is not in the Latin dictionary.

Expecto Patronos

I think his head is not in the game.

Bippity boppity boo!

For some of us, the only way to keep a poker face is to wear a mask. So I can understand using a spell to remove that face (and head) altogether…

“I’m a man, but I can change, if I have to, I guess.”

Yeah, but most of us aren’t as good at reading those tells as they are at reading faces…

then there is Ozy’s ‘poker but’ (wagging tale for anthro’s)

Nice Harry Potter Latin.

Salagadoola mechicka boola bibbidi-bobbidi-booPut ’em together and what have you gotbibbidi-bobbidi-boo……

Perhaps it is a bit of Harry Potter type late latin: the “and como capitus” might mean “and eat head”.

not a good spell, eh????!!!!!!!
