The Lighter Side Of…
Do any of you remember Mad magazine? I’d still be getting a subscription if I weren’t too embarassed by its juvenille humor. Remember the “fold-ins?” Man, I loved that magazine. The little cartoons that crept up the side of the page.
The hilarious mockery they made of our life and times? What would Alfred E. Neuman poke fun at today?
I haven’t been to a magazine stand in awhile, but please tell me your thoughts! I think it’ll be hilarious!
Better than Spy Vs. Spy, even!
The lighter side of 2006, or any other Mad mag entry. Bring it on!
Ready? Go…
Make me laugh, it soothes my soul.

I think the better question would be: what *wouldn’t* Alfred E. Neuman poke fun at today? Politicians, absurd corporate policies, most human behavior in general (like the woman who asked me what I’d done to offend her god in order to be stricken with cancer), and so on. MAD profits by the folly of others, and more power to them for it.
