Al Jaffee invented "Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions" for Mad Magazine
He also came up with the popular "Fold-In" feature. He's is 95 years old and still going strong. In fact he was recently honored as having the longest working career of any cartoonist ever. Here's a video profile from the Gothamist. (Link to YouTube video)

He's led an interesting life... his autobiography is worth checking out.
rotm81 thanks for recommendation, seeing working artist at his age is truly inspirational to me.
..."the ignominy of firing a 95years old man"...ha ha
love this man!
His creativity and cartoons must have contributed to his "agelesness"...
Thanks for this post, James.
Maybe your next contest could be a fold-in.
Great! Thanks for sharing!
I loved his last line about firing a 95 year old man!
