Taylor's terrific gift!

My wonderful son, Taylor, gave me a fantastic gift for Father's Day. (We won't be able to celebrate on Sunday because of conflicting schedules.) He gave me several old, back issues of MAD magazine dating back to the early 70s.
I love it!
It probably will not surprise you to know that I enjoyed reading MAD when I was a kid. (This probably helps explain my somewhat odd sense of humor.) It may not have helped that I occasionally read MAD instead of doing my school homework.
... Another shocker, right?
(I was very disappointed to discover I would not be able to major in MAD magazineology when I got to college.)
Taylor randomly picked some back issues from the early 70s for me from a comic dealer and it turns out a couple of them were issues that I specifically recall from those many years ago.
Cool, huh?
It is a thoughtful, fun gift! Thanks again, Taylor and Raquel. I'm really having fun reading through them. (Perhaps there may be some helpful sermon illustrations awaiting me. Lol!)
