Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for December 16, 2021

I see someone tall, dark and strange.

Wonder how long the Fortune Teller will be put on hold.

Lucky her. I always get electronic buzz saws at volume 10 with a repeat duration of 15 seconds.

Now you know what the future holds

Elevator music from the future!

Muzak makes the heart grow harder…..

It’s all spherical logic. And only the sphere will know the answer. Unless you shake it up like a magic-8-ball.

Probably taking care of another customer – probably a premium member.

Hang up and try again?

Your fortune is important to me. Please hold while I figure out how to get more of it.

Oy

Try again after the holidays…

Smooth jazz hopefully

the spirits must be busy this time of year…

“Your call is important to us, all our spirits are in contact with other savants but will be with you in a short moment.”

The spirit in the crystal ball is on coffee break.

Before I retired from Arizona Public Service I became really tired of the company’s “music on hold.” It was a tune (of sorts) called “All in the Mind.”

I suppose it’s comforting to know the spirits don’t just hang up on us if they’re busy, or on a break or something.

And here comes Elvis.

On hold? To whom is the fortune teller talking?

Really?

Imagine contacting the future only to discover there was nobody alive to answer.
