Who remembers "MAD's" send up of Purple Rain?

I was just looking through my old MAD magazine collection from when I was a wee lil' young'n. I found an issue that has a send up of Purple Rain, titled "Purple Acid Rain". I wish I knew how to host an image, then I would post a few pics, but since I don't know how, I'll just let you in on a few gags.

1. PRANCE AND BABALONIA MEET (aka Prince + Apollonia):

Prance: Hi! I'm The Kidd... an electrifying half-black, half-Italian, bisexual-looking rock performer who wears 18th Century lace and makes Boy George look like Walter Mondale! I could be a Superstar!!
Babalonia: Oh, really? What's holding you back...??
Prance: I need a gimmick!!

2. PRANCE AND BABALONIA ABOUT TO MAKE LOVE:

Prance: You're a mystery, Babalonia. I don't know anything about you. Before we make love, I have an important question to ask...! Who are you???
Babalonia: Listen... before we make love, I have an important question to ask too!... WHAT are you???

Hee, hee

ConsciousConta ct	I was just thinking about that last night. I'm sure I've seen it downloaded on the net somewhere. It's funny.
