All I have done since Friday afternoon is read MAD magazines
I received this DVD Friday...



It contains every page of every issue of MAD magazine from 1952 to 2005, in PDF format. Literally ALL I have done the last 46 hours is read these MADs, with a little bit of sleep (about six hours total) and a few scanty meals--take-out pizza and, I think, a couple of bowls of King Vitaman cereal.

I look bad. I smell bad. But I CANNOT stop going through these magazines.

If you were ever a big fan of MAD magazine, do NOT get this DVD. Even though it's readily available at Amazon.com ( http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B000HKMQ64/ref=s9_asin_image_1/104-9395449-8747941?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=1BJM8YPN60SHMB4RJ5KB&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=278240301&pf_rd_i=507846 ). Just don't do it.

1. Wow ....
I'm sooo jealous. I think I might have to visit Amazon today.

Glad you came up for air.

2. I have the cd-rom set they put out
It ran from the beginning to 1998. I was thinking of getting the dvds, but I heard they don't have the songs and other audio things. The cd-rom version also has interviews and you can do the fold-ins on the computer. I'm sure I'll get the dvds though..lol

Sounds like a good 46 hours to me. :)

3. No audio on this one
But all the fold-ins are there, in folded and unfolded versions. The stickers are there too. Obviously they're not gummed and die-cut, but you could probably print them out on sticker paper and bring back the mischief of yesteryear at your office.

The files are also all Adobe PDFs, so you can port them to just about any platform and read them at your leisure.

Well, back to it.
