Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for May 01, 2011

Jeez. I turn to the comics to take my mind off my problems, and I get a reminder to pay my bills.

I wonder what’s happening over in Dick Tracy?

Guess not Rodney.

Not funny. Not funny at all.

Who would have the nerve to foreclose on a Dictator?

So you’re saying “he who has the gold, makes the rules”? You might want to tell that to those who believe that “power flows from the barrel of a gun” and see how far you get.

Actually I do find this funny - precisely because it’s so relevant. Maybe it’s a “laugh to keep from crying” sort of thing.

Very relevant, given the runaway debt levels.

Johanan you need powder (ammo) for your guns, food for your army, fodder for your horses (transport). And who pays for that?

Read Sun Tzu

If the Fink hasn’t been paying the bills (which he hasn’t), what has he done with my taxes I earned with the sweat of my brow?

Now, THIS is a sign of a bad economy!

This is what is happening.

I think the world just foreclosed on Kadaffy.

The last I heard of Dick Tracy he was talking on his wrist C/B, TV as he was flying in his personal levitation device inspecting cave dwellings on the moon.

Just goes to show, when the roots die the tree falls.

Run the king through and be done with it. Give another tyrant a chance already!
