Winning Clever, Cute and "Could-be" answers.

WINNERS above and below (WHO LIVE IN THE U.S.) win the June 2018 issue of MAD. It's MAD issue #1! Yes, the first issue produced by the new LA team. MAD's gone west but I'm still writing for them from my Gizneyland studio in NYC.

The three answers given at least a couple of dozen times were something to do with a “napkin holder”, “a cable or rope holder” and something to do with “toenails”. We picked a few at random:

It is a cable organizer. Used to keep cables together behind your computer, TV , Stereo, etc. Billy Kay

It's a rope holder you put on your flagpole, so the ropes don't flap around in the wind. Keith Phillip

I think this is a napkin holder. Make a fancy roll of your cloth napkin and slip this around it to keep it rolled and for presentation. Doug

You’ve heard of Hair Extensions, Why not Fingernail Extensions. — PizzaGew

It’s the clipping remnants of the former world record holder for longest fingers nails. Joe Polde

We picked these because we felt the device almost could work for doing it:

It is a carrot peeler Bryon J. Hammer

A slicer for making curly fries from potatoes! "DR"

It's a template for cutting a twist-of-lemon. Ralph​ Osinski

And just silly stuff we liked:

​It's a banana that's spent too much time in the yoga class. Lil

It's a thumb pick for a playing a Citar, duh! Paul Zemella

"Tapeworm lounge beach chair" JMV in Georgia

It's a prosthetic tail for pigs who are missing theirs! David Mayes

It is a loop stunt ramp for a three ring flea circus. Brian "Ringmaster" Burwell

Petrified Orange Peel. thanks, Brad Taylor

A Slap Bracelet! (Mike) R. Greco, Sr.

There's no more MAD office in NYC, so I'll pay the $2.79 1st class postage for each winner's MAD. (But hey, it's a way for the game to go on.) As I announced months ago winners of MAD magazine are now for US addresses only. (MAD to Canada was $11.00+ last year to send one copy.) If you live in the US, email me your full name & address and put MAD WINNER in the subject so I can pick it out easily. I'll autograph your MAD with your first name & my name unless you specify Dick's name only. If you'd rather have one of those 35+ year old Alfred E. Neuman pictures, instead of May/June MAD, put SEND ALFRED PIC NOT MAD in the subject line. Soon, they will be no more of those either. The remaining Alfred E pics have been shipped to MAD in LA. If you live anywhere outside of the US email me with WINNER in the subject line and I'll autograph an Alfred E. Neuman photo, scan it & email it to you. You can print it out & no one should know the difference. (I've done it quite a few times already and people say it looks fine.) Or, another choice is OMGchad & I can give you a shout out on the Giz Wiz Show as your prize if you want. (Tell me in your email.) Thanks! Dick De. Email me at gizwizbiz@aol.com
