Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for June 25, 2015

When you’re married to an 800-year-old wizard, Blanch, that IS a normal day!

Once again, a reason why everyone needs a jet pack…

I know! It’s 2015 already! The 21st century! Where’s the jet pack they promised us?!?

I’d love a transporter room in my house.

We want our jet pack. They PROMISED!!! Really, they did. And flying cars. And the GMO foods weren’t supposed to be killing us. Really.

Doesn’t the Wizard work from his basement?

“A whole new world! Don’t you dare close your eyes!”

She’s been his wife for decades and she still doesn’t think that’s normal?

Normal’s overrated

“You’ve had your talking computers and flip-phones… what more do you want…”.A cure for aging while I’m still young.Tooth regeneration.Nuclear powered cars.A manything tree which has many fruits, including watermelons, ice cream, Snicker bars,…House growing seeds.Direct retinal projection viewers.Autodocs and/or autovets.Self control.A cure for stupid and insane and other mental disorders.A laser pistol.Free universal internet.Self growing solar to octane plants (preferably the kind which cover and insulate the roof in the process)..Just off the top of my head, more when that’s finished….

Oh, yeah — and a way to stop robo-calls from ever intruding into your life again. That would be the best miracle.

I used to fly fifty miles from home to the airport where I worked. Safer and more relaxing than driving through Atlanta.

I just heard one of the origins of a magic carpet, was, British soldiers saw a camel carrying a rider over a sand dune when a wind was blowing…All they could see was the rider on a carpet covered saddle..

I can only assume the Wiz’s regular rug is in the shop…

I(s this an Arabian kingdom?
