MAD
Pretty sure it was punishment but 3 of us had to memorize a third of the poem, The Raven, then get up and recite it before the class. Miss Lee was a bitch. Of course she did hear me refer to her as Robert E.'s mother and that may have had something to do with it. (The other two guys also had been smart asses.)
MAD did a diddy on "The Raven" and the three of us dog eared that magazine using it as a learning aid. Thank's mad. You know, I can still do the first 5 stanza's. Of course to this day I can't think of E. A. Poe without thinking of SPY Vs. SPY.
Did I ever mention that while in Viet Nam I had flash backs of Miss Lee?
And yes, all my friends couldn't wait for the next issue of MAD to come out each month. It was second only to Playboy.
Stay healthy,
Andy
