Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

Cuckoos and comics bring to mind that anti establishment MAD magazine loved by a certain generation.

MAD was originally a comic book that spoofed other comics but soon became a riotous magazine that gave you offerings such as the “Spicy Abridged Book Club,” , those Really Dangerous Jobs for George Plimpton and other offerings.

MAD still exists, with MAD’s gap toothed idiot mascot Alfred E. Neuman still smiling, well it's more of a grimace these days.

Pugsy, what does Antidisestablishmentarianism actually mean, keep it short though, I may only have 4000 days left, and no blood relatives.

Not to worry Spitty, you can leave it all to the Cats and Dogs home.

Ah yes Mad Magazine, I used to buy 'Mad' for a Jewish chap I was apprenticed to in the early 60's, nothing unusual about that almost everyone in the Jewellery making game was Jewish back then, of course he paid for it I just went out for it. Anyway he introduced me to the magazine, he would pass them on to me when he finished with them.
I lapped up the wacky humour and often copied some of the jokes and used them but none of my mates found them funny at that time.
Mad Magazine was way ahead of it's time and I'm sure the likes of John Cleese, Michael Palin, and the rest of the Monty Python gang were fans of it too.
I remember one particular copy said on the front cover something like this.
"This is the first page of the USA edition, and it is the first and last page of the Jewish edition"
