I learned to read by sitting on my dad's lap and sounding out the effects from "Don Martin Drops 13 Stories". Thought I didn't understand what I was looking at, the sounds were the funniest thing ever to little me. I had to track down a copy of my own to show my kids when they were little, and they felt the same way.

I (dis)credit Mad for developing a lifelong mix of sarcasm with sincerity, skepticism with optimism. It was exactly the right food for my young brain.
