There was a funny comic cover that I remember from many years ago.
That comic mag was MAD.
Some foreign returned cousin or such had got a few copies and I happened on one.
It showed a dunce (called Alfred E. Neuman) with a finger up his nose and the lady liberty staring down or a flag draping this dunce.. cannot remember much of the artistic detail.
But the caption read - What me worry? It spoke to the breakdown of American culture back in the late eighties inside the cover if I recollect. The mag was written by a bunch of hilarious Jews and died a recent death after almost seven decades. Fast forward to present time and now we got ourselves a pickle. Not simply by the fact that MAD is dead.
But a pandemic to be exact. And the whole cause of this is Who?
No I mean the answer is WHO. As in the World Health Organization. Not a rock band. Not exactly.
Now memory does not serve here as I forgot about the genesis of this world body but it must have come about due to some massive plague of sorts. Actually somewhere in its origins was a body called the International Sanitary organization.
With the goings on in America and its chief exec who is self prescribing and ingesting malaria pills (I knew Washington DC was a swamp but this?) seems to be bashing this WHO for failure to act on its charter to prevent or tackle said pandemic.
I think a World Sanity Organization under the United Nations is in order.
What do you think?
