So Wonks Anonymous had a subscription to Mad Magazine in 1966. it was funny then or, at least it was funny to him.

In particular he remembers fondly the October issue which features Alfred E. Neuman jumping out of a plane, except that he is wearing a backpack and not a parachute and, as he pulls the ripcord we see his underwear flying out.

Which also pretty much sums up the subtext of the issue which was laced with friendly little gay jokes - scuba diving buddies and so on - nothing really dirty. Wonks Anonymous remembers it as being delightfully transgressive and sort of sweet although his memory may be flawed.

Flawed because he only got to read it once before it, and his subscription to Mad Magazine, vanished in thin air.

We can't have our children exposed to those people.
