I remember when MAD did a satire of The Yellow Pages saying, "If you let your fingers do the walking, you'll have to soak them in Epsom salts."

I remember they did the Dave Berg LIGHTER SIDE OF... where the man has the big expensive camera that then breaks.

I remember Dave Berg did the article about barber's chairs.  I used to have DAVE BERG'S MORE MAD TRASH. 

One of the GhouLunatics in one of the EC horror stories tells a joke about someone who calls the guillotine a barber's chair and in one of the Spy vs. Spy cartoons, they have a guillotine as a barber's chair.

I remember one of the LIGHTER SIDE OF... articles included a segment where a woman talks about getting grease off of a turkey and there is a joke around that.

I remember the comic strips satire where Dagwood complains about others ridiculing him.  I asked my father what ridiculing meant, I thought it meant being humorous, but my father said it meant making fun of someone.

I remember the satire where Popeye and someone else have a wastepaper basket filled with wastepaper and one of them is told not to eat the wastepaper.

I remember the hunchback winning a game with his hunch paying off in MAD '84.

I remember when they did a song parody in one of the MAD paperbacks where they were talking about occasional "pummeling" or something like that, andthey mentioned pummeling again and maybe a third time after that, and I asked someone on a bus what "pummeling" meant, and that person on the bus said it meant hitting something really hard.

"All drugs of any interest to any moderately intelligent person in America
are now illegal."


Thomas Szasz

the argument goes something like this...


"I refuse to prove that I exist," says God,

"for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."


"But," says man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it?

It could not have evolved by chance. It proves that you exist, and so therefore,

by your own arguments, you don't. Q.E.D."


"Oh dear," says God,

I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes

in a puff of logic.


well, I guess that about wraps it up for God...
