  1. I'm just glad to see that Lance hasn't been requisitioned by the Ebola kid.......unless the parasitic twin really IS the Ebola kid trying to sneak up and abscond with Lance. It's 4:38 AM....I think I need some coffee.

  2. Reminds me of a story from "Tales From the Crypt", only more wholesome.

  3. @Kevin- I'm not sure if it's the same one, but I remember a story (in an EC comic book? Creepy?) about a man who always carried a basket on his shoulder. It concealed his other head.

  4. That reminds me of the old Stanley Myron Handleman joke about the dumb two-headed man: everything you told him went in one ear and out the other and in one ear and out the other.

  5. @JustaJeepGuy- I never heard that joke and (unsurprisingly) I love it!

  6. @Stilton- Yes, the old "head in the basket" story was what came to mind. I did a quick search and the story is surprisingly called "The Basket" and it comes originally from "The Haunt of Fear" number 7.

  7. Perfect romantic partner - a 3-some EVERY time!

  8. @Kevin- Yep, that's the story - and it was illustrated by Jack Davis who is one of my idols. He did a lot of great work for MAD magazine and many others (and he's still alive and kicking, I'm glad to say).

    @Stan da Man- You present an interesting quandry; "Mom" is pretty hot, but I'm not sure the parasitic baby lookalike would add to the mood. Then again, who am I to judge?
