  • Ending with a gag National Lampoon used when we were kids?

  • @evensgrey I remember it being Mad Magazine.

  • @shanedk They might have done it, too, but I know I've seen a copy of the issue of National Lampoon. I checked, and it was the January '73 issue.

  • @evensgrey OK, I'm sure your research is more reliable than my memory.

    It occurs to me I have no idea how long I should wait before giving up on receiving a reply. I would expect major Republicrat candidates to have staff that handle this in a week with a form letter that doesn't answer my questions, but I have no idea how long it would take a minor Independent to answer.

  • @vspqbd Hey! Thanks for being a dick! Way to represent!

  • ShaneDK 2012!!
