Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for June 27, 2020

Half starved cats might work! But hunting down the King might get the Lady to retire early and put the babes on some sort of indigestion meds for their tummies! (Smirk!)

There are lots of fun ways to kill rats. We used to have rat killings in Grandpa Huie’s corn crib.

(It’s a wonder none of us ever killed one of us.)

… political RATS are only afraid of the Unions and special interest withholding their financial support.

I thought that in Id everyone was so poor that they didn’t even have rats.

She is not at all pied. She should have changed her clothes for the interview.

I have seen rats that are the same size as cats. I have also seen two of those large rats fighting. They are ferocious fighters and fight to kill.

Cats are obligate carnivores that may try to eat anything smaller in size than themselves. The fink should be more careful now.

What does the “pied” part of the name mean?

Yes, it does, Rodney…starting with the one sitting on the throne!

Reminds me of the Geico commercial about the couple with a Ratt problem (Cut to Ratt performing ‘Rond and Round’).

Lure them away with pizza.

That won’t work. Just having a lot of cats that stay around humans isn’t going to rid Id of rats. These cats are too lazy; they expect food at the hands of the humans. What you need are some black snakes and a few rat terriers. Cats will still be lounging about waiting for their next meal while the rat terrier will be out hunting down the rat.

Replace "pied"with “pie-eyed”. Adds a new dimension.

“Pied” means “multicolored,” “parti-colored.” David’s coat of many colors was pied. The cat lady is about as far from “pied” as one can get. She is dull, drab, and utterly unattractive or eye-catching.

Those cats look like offspring of Bloom County’s “Bill the Cat”.

Is that her hair or a bunch of scared rats sitting on her head to escape the cats at her feet?

Meow meow meow

So she’ll play the flute and cats dance while eating mice?

Rodney could have lost his head for a remark like that.

Id also has a terrible Fink problem, but who cares? :D

Seems to be one of those in most cities…great idea!

Her cats are pied. She’s just pie-eyed.
