I Can Never Tell If They're Kidding Or Not...


OK, an operative just came back from a shopping mission with the DAMNEDEST purchase: the current edition of Mad magazine, showing a row of assorted Great Apes, looking determined, wearing business clothes in an officey sort of setting -- police station? newsroom? -- and in big letters:
THIS ENTIRE ISSUE WRITTEN BY MONKEYS.
I mean, on the one hand: are they kidding? What did they think they were before, some kind of Antelopes?
On the other hand: Do they really not suspect how much of their full-time staff is made up of Lobsters?
On the tailfin: You may be certain that I checked. None of the operatives working on Mad's staff has been fired, killed or unmasked. Ever.
Still, it made me feel funny for a monent, seeing that.
