Unarmed and dangerous?
16.5 Page 2
Yes there's over a 1000 of them.
Unarmed, dangerous, and oft written about.
I liked the movie. And the comics. Remo was baddass.
Yeah. I still have some at my folks place. They were a large print fortnightly British affair if I remember right. Black and white. I've just done a Google search and can't find anything about them though, so either I've gone head mental or I'm sitting on something rare. Maybe it's time to break off that twenty year spat and give my folks a call!
My dad had the first load of Mad magazines that were released in the UK, but they all got chucked out.
Turns out they're worth 7.6 million now. Dollars though, so don't get too het up about it.
While I'm here I suppose I should talk about the sketch. It didn't impress me, I'm sorry to say. And I don't think that's my natural prejudice against political jokes talking - it just had nothing going on. Perhaps is might work as a five second cutaway...
POLITICIAN (TO ANOTHER POLITICIAN):
I wonder what it is Gordon does sixteen and a half hours a day.
CUT TO:
INT. TOILET CUBICLE
GORDON:
(ROCKING BACK AND FORTH)
Come back Tony, come back Tony etc
... still, it's not exactly a remarkable joke. I'd drop it and move on.
And spend a little more time working on the next one. You can only expect people to get snotty when you bombard the board with five, sometimes ten sketches a day, and not only do you fail to correct for spelling grammar, it's clear you've spent less time on it than I do servicing the missus.

You'd be better off putting your money in Zimbabwe than the States at the moment.

Yep, they're the ones. Frickin' sweet! Black and white on the inside though.

Well that's actually pretty good, it works.
As for the spelling, and grammar I check, obviously not well enough. My works got me going to remedial english classes, I may change over to satiric cave painting.
Like I say, on this one the depressing thing is, there was actually a lot of work in it.

Methinks he had too much time on his hands.
A madeline.. very nice too with a cup of good coffee. 
Ah I remember those times.
