Re: clever recital flyers

When I was in college, I put together one of those minature comic books like the religious ones you find in phone booths, public restrooms etc. In the tract, some hapless hypotheticals who skipped my recital were run over by a deranged trucker in his thirst to avenge Mary Jo Kopechne.

Predictably, I placed it in phone booths, restrooms, etc. and those who sought to escape eternal damnation attended my recital.

I also found success using something similar to Clarinetmajr's formula. Back in the days where we pasted up flyers on xerox machines, I got good results by re-captioning photos. Photos were gotten from a brochure with some faculty headshots, various issues of Time Magazine, and packets of Star Trek and Movie Star postcards. Start looking at photos and they'll start speaking to you. Often, the Time photos were even funnier with their original captions intact. Just relax and enjoy the process.
