Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for January 09, 2024

I did not know they used aquaducts to bring water, and haul away the sewage

Trust Rod to kill the mood………….

Built to last.

Aqueduct ain’t no sewers. But what do he knows eh.

This is another strip which shows that Id was once part of the Roman Empire.

You take what you can get. Every Roman ruin isn’t a temple to Jupiter Optimus Maximus.

Yeah, ok, but what else did the romans ever do for us?

which will probably be still around when Id is no more…

Obviously they are not strolling down the Appian Way

They built those to last!!!!!

And what did the Romans do for us……

Romans used flush toilets 1800 years before our western “civilization” had them.

Quite the tunnel of love

gee, how romantic. a time in the sewers… :p

What, no Roman roads? Among the most well-made and lasting man-made products on Earth?

That’s not a sewer, it’s an aqueduct.

Well… He’s not wrong, technically.

It all went downhill from there.

Rod is a sewer loser.

Seeing how I am constantly reminded about the apparently slow pace of construction, especially ones that the public depend such as roads, the phrase “Rome wasn’t built in a day.” is very apropos!

Sorry, that’s an aqueduct.

What’s wrong with people who sew?

“…the sewers.”

What about the knitters?
