    The Burundi Beef Council is a favorite:

    But most of their best stuff wound up in the Our Dumb Century book. The article about Begin and Sadat celebrating the Camp David accords with a coke binge at Studio 54 is classic (one of them is "fellated by one or more members of Sister Sledge ...")

    For pure evil, nothing quite beats the headline they didn't used after 9/11: "America Stronger Than Ever, Say Quadragon Officials"

    Amen on "Our Dumb Century" Boomer.

    The Moon Landing was one of the funniest things I've ever seen, as was the WW II clips.

    I'm also partial to the 9/11 issue with the hijackers getting to hell and finding out there weren't any 72 virgins ready and waiting.

    The whole 9/11 issue was brilliantly done. They managed to joke about what was happening without it seeming inappropriate, which wasn't an easy course to navigate during that time.

    Don't want to step on Poindexter's toes, but this was pretty good:
