Don’t take any tin nickels.

Some day you could be replaced by a robot.

Considering how, we always find you standing around in the woods, I’m not surprised.

So, is that scarecrow grain beer in the glasses (Wizkey doesn’t usually have a head on it)?

if he just sits around in a bar employers are apt to think he’s a tinhorn…

That’s the way the Brit’s pronounce that metal.

" … and nothing seems to feel right to me … and when my heart isn’t in it … "

And now my head is stuck on, “But Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man…”

In the original story, the Tin-man started out human but he started working long hours in order to afford to give his true love the life he felt she deserved. But he cut off a limb and had it replaced so he could keep working. He kept cutting off body parts until he was completely replaced with metal. But since they did not give him a heart, he actually lost the reason for his efforts.

So the comic is fitting since the tin man became the tin man because he had to work long hours to make the money he wanted.

Love the ‘drink of choice’. I hear it is Oz-some!

At least he’s staying lubricated.

“Just steel yourself… better things are coming.”

Oz: The British Version?

So is the lion sitting on his tail to have it on the counter like that?
