268. I'm trying to remember what issue a photograph was in where a man in a wheelchair was diving off the high platform. Until next time about this and he was laughing really hard about. I'm sure was in the National Lampoon maybe the April 1976 issue, but I'm not sure.
It's not in the April 1976 issue. It sounds familiar, but I can't place it. If you, dear reader, know the answer, please use the Comments link below.

267. I remember an issue in the mid-seventies that had a single cartoon titled something like “Proof Vikings landed before Columbus” A great image of burly Vikings coming ashore in an Indian village and mounting everything (squaws, totem poles, canoes). I looked around and can’t find a reference to it.
It was the "Surprise Poster" in the May 1976 (Unwanted Foreigners) issue (page 90).

266. I'm looking for article/ issue with the quote "Who burned the Chou?"
That was on the first page of "The National" section (the fake news section) in the March 1973 (In Like a Lion) issue.

276. I'm trying to find a short story in which an spaceship runs out of fuel on earth. The aliens on board seek nickels for fuel and are willing to pay for it with a wonder creativity drug. Humans who ingest the drug have an explosion of creativity. The drug turns out to be alien fecal matter which led to the punchline: it was really good shit.
That was "Pipe Dream" by Chris Miller from the June 1972 (Science Fiction) issue.

274. Which issue that had a Buckminster Fuller diagram of the male and female parts?
That would be "Buckminster Fuller's Repair Manual for the Entire Universe" from the January 1972 (Is Nothing Sacred?) issue.

273. There was a cartoon parody of Peanuts as black kids called "Goobers" and had the characters tradiing some quip about the TV serial "Roots."
Tip o' the hat to John for finding it: August 1977 (Cheap Thrills) issue.

272. Which one is the one with the illegal aliens spoof, where there is a picture of some very clever illegal’s crossing the Rio Grande in a card board made space ship with NASA written on it. On the side is painted "El Rocketo de Ship". Priceless!
Carol sez: "That's from 'Operation Torn Rubber' in the June '77 (I Got My Job Thru The...) issue. The Rocketo is an image that stayed with me for all those years between 1977 and 2009 when I got that issue again. The aliens also cross the border disguised as a trick water-skiing team." Thanks again, Carol!
