When you were born, who was on the cover of…
Time Magazine? Richard Nixon, “The Push to Impeach”.
Sports Illustrated? College football, “Notre Dame Stacks Up USC”.
Esquire? John F. Kennedy eating ice cream, “Trying to remember J.F.K.”.
Rolling Stone? Daniel Ellsburg (Some antiwar-pinko-liberal who contributed to the downfall of Nixon. Ellsburg is still around, now trying to bring about the fall of Bush.)
TVGuide? A collage, Bob Hope, Julie Andrews, Sammy Davis Jr., Elvis and more.
National Lampoon? A soap box derby kid on fire, “Sports”.
Mad Magazine? Alfred E. Newman (duh!) building a sand castle.
I stole this idea from a blog I frequent, but don’t link to. (She’s a brilliant, gun-toting, conservative Christian, but she has a poo-poo mouth not suitable for my kiddie readers.) If you ask me nice, I might send you the link.
