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.

You have to have a plan or you’ll never know where you went wrong.

Divide and conquer is what you do to your enemy(ies). It’s no wonder Rodney does not win battles.

Meanwhile………………………
.
Recently, a routine police patrol was parked outside a local neighborhood bar.
.
Late in the evening, the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the parking lot for a few minutes with the officer quietly watching.
.
After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five different vehicles, the man managed to find his own car which he fell into. He was there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off. Finally, he started his car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a dry night), flicked the hazard flasher on and off, tooted the horn and then switched on the lights. He moved the vehicle forward a few inches, reversed a little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes as more patrons left in their vehicles.
.
At last he pulled out of the parking lot and started to drive slowly down the street.
.
The police officer having patiently waited all this time, now started up his patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man over and carried out a breathalyser test.
.
To his amazement the breathalyser indicated no evidence that the man consumed alcohol at all!
.
Dumbfounded, the officer said “I’ll have to ask you to accompany me to the police station. This breathalyser equipment must be broken.”
.
“I doubt it,” said the man. “Tonight I’m the designated decoy.”

Aye Alexikakos and with Rodney’s Planning I’m amazed he’s still alive. Good one on the Designated Decoy Too!

While he who stays and takes his chance, may leave the scene by ambulance.

@dukedoug
Yes, bad plans can be unforgiving.

A miss fire, he shot the bow at the Huns, leaving his arrow.

Guess which part of his army Rodney will be with.

@Hillbillyman
Yes Rodney only has one arrow but you rarely see him with any arrows in his quiver. Apparently he considers them dangerous to carry around. He might trip and one would come loose and lodge in his nether regions.
