Michael Gross "un-invited" from Meyerowitz book event? It makes no sense, but it sure looks like that's what has happened. More about it in the comments to this news item about the event. I sure hope they change their minds. I was really looking forward to seeing him there with everyone else.

A week and a half from now (December 4), a bunch of former NatLamp people are getting together at the New York Public Library to celebrate the publication of Rick Meyerowitz' Drunk Stoned Brilliant Dead. I will be there, too. More info here.

260. We are pretty sure California Hot Tub Rectal Gonorrhea was on one of the NatLamp albums but we can't figure out which one. We're hoping you know. Aside from the vinyl is there any medium we might be able to get this on?

That was on The National Lampoon White Album (1980).

259. In what old magazines would I find Bruce McCall's genuine illustrated advertisements? I heard that he painted ads for Mercedes before he joined the Poon.

That's a really good question, but I don't know the answer. I would love to see them, too. If you, dear reader, know the answer, please use the Comments link below.

258. Hi, I’m trying to locate an episode of the Appletons where Mr. Appleton led his kids to the kitty litter box and had them search for buried treasures. I may have been part of an Easter Egg Hunt. What a cruel man....

Sandi Sprinkler comes through: "It was Halloween, not Easter. The October '79 (Comedy) issue, to be precise." More info about it in the Comments link below.

257. I'm trying to remember in which issue there was an article about sex that referred to such things as; "Suck-a duck, the hard canard, tube-steak suppositories and foaming beef enema", etc... I think it may have been late 70s to early 80s.

Carol suggests the "Travellers' Aid" section of the August '79 (Vacation!) issue. Seems close enough to me.

256. There was a comic strip series about a guy and his dead friend - Joe I think? That was the best. What was the name of the artist and do you know where I can go to see the entire series?

Steve found it: "Ray and Joe--The Story of a Man and his Dead Friend," by Rodriguez in the Jan. 1984 (Time Parody) issue, p. 82. Thanks, Steve!

254. Do you recall which issue had the Aesop Brothers strip in which they'd hung out their shingle as private detectives? I remember one panel that had a sign on top of their car with the line, "Discretion Is Our Watch-Word."

I do, but I don't know which issue. If you, dear reader, know the answer, please use the Comments link below.
