When I said it was a slow day on the entertainment wires, I meant stuff like this.
Here is the cover.
Yes, that'll pop his bubble: getting mocked by Mad, which was a major cultural force around the time they ran "The Lighter Side of Smog" in 1972.
Cracked is funnier. The online version, I mean; the print mag's dead. When I was in the Mad target demo - 12 or so - we thought Cracked would never beat Mad; it was the obvious knock-off, cheap, lame. But Cracked.com - probably not safe for work, due to language, and also it obviously has nothing to do with anything you're working on - can be hilarious and informative. Has nothing to do with the old magazine except the logo, but still.
If you hit the link, you can read more about the modern Mad. Al Jaffee is still doing those fold-ins on the inside back cover. He's 90 now. The best illustrator in the Mad stable is still alive, too.
