Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for July 04, 2020

I have lived in towns that the favorite Independence Day ‘Big Bang’ was shooting off a fire arm. No one could seem to convince these people that ‘What goes up – must come down’. It got worse in my head… when a relative heard all of this and decided to ‘enjoy’ the fireworks from under a big piece of Plexiglas. Telling him that those bullets going up can still go through. (Sigh!)

Anyhow… keep safe… and beware – there are too many idiots out there! Most are so drunk that they will not realize they shot someone until days in jail.

Yes a good show would be lovely after the horrible “reality show” we have been living through the last several years. Looks like the ratings are finally starting to tank.

Local street near apartment complex will look like war zone on Sunday.

Camelot liked that day too?

There’s been a bunch of separate displays within hearing distance this week. There were two tonight, or one that had a problem for 15 minutes. I wasn’t watching so all my evidence is aural.

All the large shows around here have been cancelled – no gatherings!

The fires we’ve had in Az. we don’t need any fireworks. STAY HOME!

And the Fink probably has the names of every complainer written on them.

Uhhh . . . no.

And here I thought that people on the Fourth of July were supposed to have a blast.

One would idly wonder why the Land of Id would care about 4 th of July.

Heck, with everything that has been going on, what difference will raging fires all over the place make…

Also useful for setting fire to sails and other parts of enemy ships — if they are wood, tar and cotton sails.

and does El Finko have a plan to make sure that the display doesn’t turn into a giant bonfire…because I don’t see Wiz anywhere!

I wonder what they celebrated on 4th of July during the medieval times.

After 2020, so do we! However, we’re not getting one!

Aww! Just for today, the king is NOT a fink!

Happy 4th of July to my American cousins! Enjoy responsibly!

I wonder if they sanitized each and every one of those first! ;o]

We don’t need a show, we need to see action…

Doesn’t begin to help. Nothing to celebrate this year, given a pandemic with no end in sight, and everyone at each other’s throats politically.

If Donald Duck smoked cigarettes he would be a fire quacker.

Nope. The “Knuckleheads” have cost us this, too…

With our luck This year, they would all tip over and start shooting towards us…

I think the real fireworks are due to go off in November.

Since when did Id become independent, and from whom?

Wait but the medieval time is before America declared independence…

jeez—what’s it mean when the King of Id cares more about all his citizens than does the current President* of the United States?

I’d like to tie trump to a larger version of that pinwheel.

Unfortunately el naranja does not know the meaning of celebrate the 4th “responsibly.”

A friend is giving birth today. She and her husband couldn’t care less about “boom-boom” fireworks.

Me either, for that matter.

So they gained freedom from the British as well?

I wonder how American Indians “celebrate Independence Day” ?

Yeah, and the dummy tax payers are paying for every bit of it.

Happy Fourth of July to my American cousins. Stay safe while you celebrate.

1. ID is an independent democracy?2. ID also has its independence day on July 4th?
