Sunday, December 20, 1998: Snowin' in the wind

[NonsenseWords]

The title panel. I dislike it. Ozy looks like he's eating that flower.

[Bocaj Claw]

He is eating the flower.

The title at left is a takeoff on a famous photo of John Lennon, from one of his "bed-ins" for peace.

Ozy is uncharacteristically aggressive about his pacifism, in this strip; usually it's more Millie's style to be loud about what she thinks until someone socks her with a snowball. On the other hand, Ozy would never have lobbed the snowball at her, and I guess I had to give the song to somebody.

Incidentally, this strip marked my return to using actual brushes, for inking (I'd gone through a phase of using Japanese brush-pens.

[Maggot Brain]

I'm 90% sure that those first two lines he sings aren't even in the song. I dig the title panel.

[Bocaj Claw]

I just noticed that Ozy totally stole Earnest. No wonder Millie is aggrieved.

[Muninn]

I'm 90% sure that those first two lines he sings aren't even in the song. I dig the title panel.

The first two lines are from the Dylan song Blowin' in the Wind.

Ozy's doing a peace song medley here, which I can only imagine sounds terrible.

[Cactus Jack]

Its because the non "Give Peace a Chance" sections of Give Peace a Chance are nonsense.

He should have sang One Tin Soldier. Now there is a peace song.

[Maggot Brain]

Its because the non "Give Peace a Chance" sections of Give Peace a Chance are nonsense.

At least they aren't repeated 900 times.

[Tom_Radigan]

He should have sang One Tin Soldier. Now there is a peace song.

That's right. The mountain people got slaughtered because they failed to tell the valley folk that there was no buried cache of tons of gold.

[Arloest]

On the whole, Give Peace a Chance was not a very good song.

[Dr. Dos]

But it had the word masturbation in it. So it's good.
