Now For A Public Service Announcement: Atom Bombs And You!

Hello boys and girls, I’m Major Dumas, here today to tell you about the dangers of America’s nuclear arsenal.  While atom bombs are our friends, and America’s greatest weapon against our red communist enemy…they can be dangerous to look at while being tested on the range.  Don’t believe me?..look at this atomic sun tan kids…I got this beauty by just walking outside and gazing upon that big cloud of radioactive goodness.  See where my sunglasses were?  In 30 years, after it’s had time to settle into my system, I’ll die a horrible death, riddled with cancers that medical science hasn’t even come up with names for yet.  But that’s in the future kids, when we’re all cruising around in flying cars and wearing skin tight suits that’ll even make mom’s rear end appetizing…let’s focus on the present.  Kids, while mom and dad are "blowing" your college fund and trust money in Las Vegas at Binion’s or the Four Queens, and you’re stuck wandering the streets downtown with nothing to do...should you see that glorious mushroom cloud, the one that signifies America’s scientific superiority over the red menace, try not to look directly into it.  Find somewhere indoors, like the local malt shop, or the bowling alley, or that special place with the red light that dad likes to go to when mom’s away visiting grandma, and get inside.  You don’t want that “glow in the dark” sun tan like me now…do you?  Protecting yourself from atomic rays will make everyone’s life a little bit safer…right kids?  You girls out there who are the future mothers of a free America, remember…looking into the light will cause you to have three eyed, twelve toed little monsters…they’ll have to be taken to that special place where mommy and daddy put your “special” older brother, the one that no one talks about…understand?  And for you boys out there, we need you to be strong and healthy when you graduate high school, because we have a special mission for you…in a faraway place known as Southeast Asia…are you ready!  So don’t be a Major Dumas kids…and remember boys and girls, if someone offers you a reefer cigarette, you tell them that you don’t smoke “Red” dope, because narcotics are a commie’s best friend.  Over and out.

I got this Barclay pod foot officer through the mail the other day.  I don’t know if the face was painted fluorescent pink by some "smart-ass" factory worker ticked off over the wages, or by some long-haired hippie kid, pissed at his parents because he wanted to go to Woodstock and mommy and daddy said no “f-ing” way.  Who knows…either way, it made me chuckle.
