Kind of funny. I use to get Cracked magazine along with MAD as well back in middle school and H.S. I still remember some funny things such as an ad parody for some product such as one to get a man to start to wear nice clothes, drive a fine automobile and listen to beautiful music (Muzak kind). I am the epitome of being the opposite. I weat jeans & t-shirt, listen to rock such as RUSH, The Doors and drive a P/U truck or a Subaru WRX Turbo. No fine car like a Buick.

I remember the very first thing I ever saw in MAD. I was about 7 years old and at the Dr Office:
World War III is coming
We hope that we survive
So that we can fight in
World War IV and V.
As a little kid that worried about being nuked by the commies, that gave me perspective that I have carried every since.

Am reminded of how there used to be a theatre in the Boston area called the Flick and their logo in newspaper ads almost made it look like the F word...

I found it interesting watching James Bond’s Goldfinger this past weekend and seeing the “homer tracking screen” in his Austin Martin DB5. Sure seemed similar to the GPS devices available in today’s cars.

Free the Moon From the Earths Tyrannical Pull sounds SO TRUE. I wonder if we can get Protest Warrior to carry that sign at some Earth Day rallies this year.

“I especially enjoyed the prediction for school.”
And I hope that prediction comes true. It’s bad enough that our generation had the kind of schooling that it had, and the following one had even worse schooling. But the growth of homeschooling makes me hopeful.
