Mad Magazine - a Major Part of Baby Boomer Childhoods! Don Martin Cartoons, Spy vs Spy... and The Satire of Classic Poetry and Tales... Like: Jabber-Whacky

I saw Plans for building a TV Commercial Silencer in Mad... I took Apart my Parent's TV and Installed a Switch on a Long Wire... Without Breaking the TV or Getting Electrocuted... and We Enjoyed Silence During TV Commercials for Years... Nowadays, Every remote has a MUTE Button... But Mad Magazine was Way Ahead of Its Time... With a DIY Plans Cartoon... I've Never Been Able to Find a Copy of those Plans... If you HAVE Them... Email Me: gregvan[at]yahoo[dot]com or Leave a Comment Below!

Don Martin Cartoon - In the Operating Room

Classic Poetry Satire!

On Dreaming, After Falling Asleep Watching TV

'Twas Brillo, and the G.E. Stoves,
Did Procter-Gamble in the Glade;
All Pillsbury were the Taystee loaves
And in a Minute Maid.

"Beware the Station-Break, my son,
The voice that lulls, the ads that vex!
Beware the Doctors Claim, and shun
That horror called Brand-X!"

He took his Q-Tip'd swab in hand;
Long time the Tension Headache fought--
So Dristan he by a Mercury,
And Bayer-break'd in thought.

And as in Bufferin Gulf he stood
The Station-Break, with Rise of Tame,
Came Wisking through the Pride-hazed wood,
And Creme-Rinsed as it came!

Buy one! Buy two! We're almost through!
The Q-Tip'd Dash went Spic and Span!
He Tide Air-Wick, and with Bisquick
Went Aero-Waxing Ban.

"And hast thou Dreft the Station-Break?
Ajax the Breck, Excedrin boy!
Oh, Fab wash day, Cashmere Bouquet!"
He Handi-Wrapped in Joy.

'Twas Brillo, and the G.E. Stoves
Did Procter-Gamble in the Glade;
All Pillsbury were the Taystee loaves,
And in a Minute Maid.

At first glance, a person would think that this is a Pink Floyd lyric... but... What if the person that did the graffiti was actually asking God to Grant a wish? Did they realize that at the time I took the photograph I was actually there right then?

And God has granted His Wish!
