Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for February 02, 2020

Not sure that system counts.

Subtle movie reference in the throw-away panel.

Sad to see Phil’s guards turn on him.

A metaphor for man trying to control the weather.

If he goes back to bed quietly, he won’t see his shadow, Then everyone will be happy.

They had Sonny and Cher for the first panel?

I don’t think that counts, guys.

Should be, “Click. Hold your little hand in mine…”

LOL I had forgotten it was Groundhog Day until I saw this strip! I’ll stay off of TV and social media today to avoid hearing about either Punxsutawney Phil OR Phil Connors.

You’ve got the wrong guy. I’m just a groundhog. You want the groundhog, over in the next town, and he already texted me that he saw his shadow.

Stop right there

I gotta know right now

Before we go any further

Do you love winter?

Will you love it forever?

Shouldn’t they be helping him see his shadow… so that the extended winter can help combat global warming?

Southern Ground Hog

OMG Over and over…

A southern groundhog saying y’all?

The guards don’t show shadows either. Must have clouded over really fast.

Wiarton Willie.too ;)

There will be no ‘shadow seeing’ here fuzzy face. Just duck and cover, you.

sometimes the comics are just great. then like today they suck.

First time that I can recall, the additional (throw-away) panels at the start could stand alone and are actually funnier than the rest of the strip – IMO!

Cher and Cher alike!

Just think.. in a few more years his job will be obsolete.. Another tradition lost to time.. and climate change.

Today is unique! It is the 2nd day, of the 2nd month, of the 2nd decade, of the 2nd millenium..

In fact, Phil the groundhog DIDN’T see his shadow this morning. All is well….

Apparently it’s been snowing a lot in Id…

We just watched the movie Groundhog Day this afternoon. :)
