Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for November 21, 2021

This is about the same thing as today’s B.C.

You don’t have to accept the end of autumn. It will come anyway.

come on, leaf it alone___

Michael Joseph Jackson

reminds me of that pirate in “Overboard” who tries to fight the end of summer

Autumn? You mean it’s autumn again. Everything just seems a blur without distinction or joy. Faceless drones mumbling incoherent words in a joyless dredge of existence, threatened by exclusion and expulsion. “Look what they’ve done to my song”. Melanie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrM2fxnkxjA

Wiz should just accept autumn and let the poor leave fall.

A-a-a-h If it were only one leaf.

Making the fall last a little while more.

One leaf does not make a pile.

An early holiday deadline? LOL

But you were ready to accept snow a couple of days ago, Wiz…https://www.gocomics.com/wizardofid/2021/11/19?ct=v&cti=2208697

Where’s the MIFF?

Seems like today is the day for last leaf bink-ing. Settle in folks, it’s almost time to hunker down.

Must reread O’Henry’s The Last Leaf!

Autumn ended before it began. It was very warm through most of October before a few weeks of cool weather and now the freezing November mornings and evenings. It’s almost Thanksgiving, so that’s cool.

Heck, I can’t accept the start of autumn.Give me summer time!

The Wizard cries out for attention. As the last leaf falls. “Now is the winter of our discontent / Made glorious summer by this son of York”. William Shakespeare. Or read “The Winter of Our Discontent” The last novel by John Steinbeck.

Garfield would be entertained by this

Careful Wiz, you could be starting a cold snap earlier than it should.

Got another month… You’re good

Come to my house, Wiz. They just started falling this past week and plenty on the trees. You can rake them too.

Another comic for that great old Cascades tune – The Last Leaf.

A B.C. Cross-over event?

Like B. C. today and also O’Henry’s The Last Leaf.

You have to accept the mother gravity, wizard.

I love the salute to Fall on all three strips today.
