Well, I just got a call from my old pal, Alfred E. Newman, and he is plenty mad! Seems that some folks think that Alfred looks like Bush. Well, this has Alfred steamed and he just wanted me to pass on to anyone out there who thinks Bush looks like Alfred to get a life!

And knock it off, dangit!

Actually I thought he looked more like Alfred Dubya Newman, a cousin to the MAD Magazine icon.

Can't be the same guy. MAD Magazine's imp is named Alfred E. Neuman.

Somewhere in my loft I have most of the early issues of MAD magazine, including issue No. 1. Impressed eh? Must be well over 40 years old now.

And Blair looks like Howdie Doody.

And Kerry looks like Herman Munster.




Think we should have stuck with the originals.

I'd love to have some old Mad magazines, especially the one with the Lone Ranger, Captain Marvel or the Shadow.

the OLD Mad mags? The small, comic book size? Those are a bit more than 40 years old! I loaned some out when I was 11-12, and that was 53 years ago. I never got them back, either....*grump* Me and Alfred E. Neuman grew up together...

At least Alfred never lied to us, Bill.

Recently I picked up a MAD Magazine at the library. It hasn't changed an iota in 40-50 years.

I believe the guys at MAD are the precursors of the graffiti-producing youth who deface surfaces worldwide with totally copycat "art". (I'm assuming worldwide. So far I've seen exactly the same stuff from California to Budapest.) Jeesh, if they have to be rebellious, can't they at least be original?

Mad is like RoadRunner or Popeye cartoons or British Music Hall routines...you KNOW what is gonna happen and what level of humor is coming, and you wait for it and revel in it...

Kerry also bears a strange resemblence to the late Tommy Cooper but he aint one bit funny.
