121. I'm looking for a cartoon, probably from the mid-'70s. It takes place in a grocery store with something like "courtesy incident in courtesy aisle" and a foreign lady shopping with her foot impaled on a huge piece of glass saying something like "this is a suspicion" or "I am a suspicion". Do you remember the cartoon or what issue it was in?

Marcel says: "It was in the december 1979 Success issue. It's from the ''Closet at the top'' comic. The lady says: There is a suspicion here! There is kolshevak skouri I am having. oh yes, yes a suspicion!"

120. Years ago (1976-1981, I think), National Lampoon featured an issue on Satan. They had some excellent airbrushing/paintings of Satan in a circle. Various poses. The one I am looking for featured Satan in a circle playing an electric guitar. Do you know what issue this may have been. Looking to get that airbrushed on my bike. Thanks for any help.

That doesn't sound familiar at all. Are you sure it was National Lampoon? The only issues I recall that might have had something like that are the January '82 (Sword and Sorcery) issue or the June '86 (Horror and Fantasy) issue, but nothing in either of those issues matches your description. (If anyone reading this is familiar with these paintings, please use the Comments link to help this guy out.)

In Chris Miller News... On August 13 at 9 p.m. EST, the Biography Channel will premier "National Lampoon's Animal House--The Inside Story," a two-hour documentary maring the 30th anniversary of the film's release. More on Chris's site and on the Biography Channel's site.

Chris is also one of the interviewees featured in a documentary about "gross out" comedy called "In The Gutter," which has been running periodically on the Starz network since July 29.

Finally, Chris has just added another of his classic National Lampoon short stories, "Practice Makes," about a guy who has to keep reliving the same failed attempt to get laid.
