Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for May 31, 2024

I had salt water fish, I purchased a new fish and put into a tank…NASTY aggressive dude! I had to borrow a trap to catch it and I donated it back to the store

What also matters is how you are watching them.

My mom’s assisted living place has a big tank of gold and assorted fish. I stop by them every week and say “Hi, Fishies!” and they come up to the glass and we make faces at each other. They’re cute … but boring. For real blood pressure lowering, I watch “Too Cute” (Discovery Family, 1-2 PM daily), which follows litters of puppies and kittens from birth to adoption. That’s so relaxing that, in spite of my best efforts to not miss a moment of that cuteness, I generally fall asleep while watching.

Meditate, it’s cheaper and less cruel.

… and raises the heart rate.

Sometimes you is eat fish. Sometimes fish is eat you.

He just wants you to be his chum.

I’d say he “read” that watching fish lowers blood pressure. He “learned” that’s not always the case.

Bleeding will do that.

If only he could just watch them.

What lowers blood pressure is catching fish, not watching them.

You’re gonna need a bigger…well you’re going to need a boat.

get an aquarium with some guppies and tetras, much more relaxing and safer

Where’s that Sushi spell?

“Feats Don’t Fail Me Now.”

In his case, it’ll lower his weight as well!

I see the Wiz is walking on water.

Run Wizard Run!!!!!!

Well, the running for your very life will do that.

Is the wizard walking on water?

“Feets don’t fail me now!”

The corollary to the saying, “All bleeding stops.”

After your encounter with the shark, your blood pressure goes to zero.

That shark is way to big to be in water that shallow, especially at that angle.

The less blood you have, the lower your blood pressure. I lost so much after a surgery, mine was 74/44. I nearly died, in the surgeon’s office.

“….and greatly improves his stride.”

Stop teasing Sherman, Wiz!

That would raise my blood pressure immensely. Yikes.

Should have brought along Henry and they could have had a fish fry.

Bloodletting will definitely lower your blood pressure.

What does lower blood pressure have to do with walking on water??
