    RIP Al Jaffee

    Anyone who ever read Mad Magazine as a kid knows Mr. Jaffee’s work. '

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Thanks for the complimentary view.

    I just watched another part of my childhood move on out of reach.

    I was a subscriber to MAD many many years ago. I used to really marvel at his drawings, and I used to keep the foldouts on the back cover. Remember those?
