I picked up
our mail at the post office yesterday.
While walking to the car I was flipping through the envelopes and magazines
to see what all we had.
A Christmas card
from my fellow comicbook connoisseur Par stood out. It stood out because in the place of a
Christmas stamp or any kind of regular postage stamp was a postage stamp
duplicating the cover of a MAD's paperback of years ago, INSIDE MAD. (cover above).
I made a
pedestrian U-turn on the sidewalk. I
heard of people ordering stamps with their favorite photograph of pets or
children. That must have been what Par
did. I was going back inside the post
office and ask a window clerk how could I order stamps like this and was it too
late for Christmas.
As I was
walking into the building and flipping through our mail again, I saw that actually
the INSIDE MAD picture was the return address on the TOP LEFT side and on the
TOP RIGHT side was a Christmas stamp.
I U-Turned
again. Never mind.
What me a dyslexic?
