Ah, the legacy of “Who’s on first?” never runs dry!
Lost in Translation?
Hamlet’s music lesson: “The Rest is Silence”
Thanks to Darren for sending these in. He says of the Loose Parts, “I’m wondering what made him give in. Has the mime just been standing in one spot for over a week or something?
Shared anatomy
This pair comes from Philip, who asks “But in the Strange Brew, why is the appendix in the middle of the book?”
Up and up and up …
Is there any more to the joke than the anachronism of the “ancient site” having a wheelchair ramp alongside the staircase (and a bit of matching signage)?
Human Beans?
Sakartvelo (საქართველო), to start with
A find-the-hidden-names puzzle from Pearls Before Swine!
(Yes, displayed twice for some viewers.)

🎼 Everyone knows it’s Wendy
Is the joke simply that the pattern is not followed? Or do they find a special significance in the name “Wendy”?
P.S. for nostalgiasts here is a performance of the song half-referenced in the post title. And note that some of the lyrics do work for an avian such as Wendy, e.g. “And Windy has wings to fly / Above the clouds” . Hmm, maybe not quite above the clouds…
