The Wizard of Id has been enchanting audiences since 1964, but the real wizards behind this comic classic were artist Brant Parker and writer Johnny Hart.
The pair began paving the path to the Kingdom of Id in 1950, when Parker, a staff artist for the Binghamton Press in upstate New York, was asked to judge a high school art contest. Among the entrants was a teenager by the name of Johnny Hart, whose work so impressed Parker that he arranged a meeting.

In the mid-sixties, there was a hippy named Benny in San Francisco.
.
Benny was really hip, but he just couldn’t grow a beard like the rest of the flower-child guys in Haight-Ashbury
.
One day Benny met up with a Gypsy Lady who liked him enough to grant him a wish, so, naturally, Benny wished for a beard.
.
The Gypsy Lady granted the wish but warned Benny it was an irreversible wish and to always keep the beard and never cut it off.
.
Well, the years went by, the flower children aged, the hippy movement died out, and Benny went on to a career as a successful financial adviser.
.
One day Benny, after losing a potential client, decided his beard was what put the prospect off and that it no longer fit his image.
.
Ignoring the Gypsy Lady`s warning, given all those years ago, he went into the executive washroom and shaved it off.
.
POOF Benny disintegrated into a pile of ashes, the janitor swept him up and deposited him in a jar.
.
Moral: A Benny shaved is a Benny urned.

Old King Cole was a merry old soul, a merry old soul was he.
He called for his pipe, he called for his bowl.
I guess we all know about old King Cole! ;-)
