"Avian Flu" a PSA parody from a few years back, has sprung back to life recently and is being recognized at this year's RIFF in Rochester, New York! With a laurel and hearty handshake, no less!

Found this a while back -- someone updated a WWII satire using "The Lambeth Walk" - it gave me a rare reason to smile this morning.

Found this artifact in a file labeled "1959-60." It was a premium for 15 Planter's Peanuts wrappers, my father's favorite lunch snack on the pipeline. It came just as I was about to enter kindergarten and the occasionally cringe text was my go-to encyclopedia for Prez's thru 2nd grade.
