One of the staples of my misspent youth.
Sure, it was dumb, and that was the whole point. |

Copies of MAD were well circulated at school. We often gathered in small bunches around a copy and read aloud, laughed and commented. |

Sure, it was dumb, and that was the whole point. A lot of MAD was goofy, but there was also a hell of a lot of sharp satire, too. RIP, sir, and thanks for all the great memories. |

Rest easy,chief. Thanks for all the laughs. One of his first movie parodies he did for Mad was "Hah!Noon" His other stuff was funny too,"Unsolved Miseries","The Bad Mouth Bears","Q.T.-The Quasi Terrestrial" ,"Groan With The Wind",and so many other articles. |
