Originally published in The Big Issue a couple of weeks ago, it’s filled with sage and worldly pronouncements from such luminaries as Jessa Crispin and Yours Truly, but if that’s not enough to convince you to exercise your mousefinger, George’s description of Perry Middlemiss as the white-bearded Wizard of Oz litblogs definitely should.

    The gag here is that the real Wiz had no beard – as seen above. Thanks for the link!

    And I thought the first crack would be that I look like the Scarecrow!

    I might actually look like that without a beard but it’s been so long since I’ve seen my ugly dial I actually have no idea what I look like any more. Probably a good thing.
