After 67 years Mad Magazine is going out of business.  I loved Mad Magazine.  The last time I saw Mad for sale was at Mallard Market in Lehighton last year.  Of course I bought a copy.  I am guessing that it went under for two reasons.  First of all, where can you buy a magazine these days?  What were once called “news agencies” are long gone.  I don’t think there is a single place in Carbon County, Pennsylvania, that sells magazines.  
Secondly, it seems to me that if it is not on a phone, it won’t get read.  People no longer read.  
Alfred E. Newman, rest in peace.
