It's not for kids, but the Politically Incorrect Alphabet has gained more than a few grown-up fans since it appeared online.

Creator Mark Jones got the idea from the alphabet cards pinned up in his wife's elementary school classroom -- the usual A for Apple, B for Ball fare -- and realizing that some of the letter-designating icons from his youth (like I for Indian) were politically passé.

From there, the gifted illustrator began drawing the most taboo, double-entendred and perverse alphabet around, playing with the raw and raunchy concepts he thought up and other ideas submitted by enthusiastic fans -- C for Cannibal, F for Fur Coat, N for Nipple Ring, U for Ugly -- all while preserving an almost sweet, schematic style.

Sorry but Shel Silverstein with his Uncle Sheldy"s A B Cs got there first. Almost every elementary school has a kid in at least one class that does the same thing to the alphabet. How about a really intelligent one instead?
