I promise my next entree won't have anything to do with college (school still, just not college ;-)). And after an E that does again, F won't even have anything to do with school at all. I have written a lot of school-centric parodies, haven't I? Hmm...

We've decided to continue submitting older parodies that maybe did not get much attention the first time through...

So here is our entry - "Car Man" to Bowie's "Starman."

Can't resist the temptation to buy more attention for one of my favorites: ?http://www.amiright.com/parody/misc/thebigbopper0.shtml

Could I suggest that we extend our voting through maybe next Friday (the 30th), due to loss of the board?  Chime in with your thoughts.

I wasn't able to post my entry for the "C" competition due to the boards being down and redone.  I'd like to enter this song into the "C" round competition:

http://www.amiright.com/parody/70s/creedenceclearwaterrevival27.shtml

"Up Around The Bend"   CCR
"Come On Quit Breakin' Wind"  Parody by Guy DiRito

Thanks

I've changed my mind about not putting a parody out this round.

"Computer Illiteracy" done to "How Much is that Doggie in the Window?" by Patti Page

http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/pattipage0.shtml

Guess I'll jump back in for the "C" round.  My entry is "Country Roads, Don't Drive Stoned" based on John Denver's  "Take Me Home, Country Roads"

  When do parody entries end and when do we vote?

If there's still time, here's my entry:

voting for round C starts on friday 6pm eastern same time entries close

Thanks, Ethan.

I'm changing my entry to this one... the recording is on the front page of amiright:

Where is the front page?

http://www.amiright.com maybe?  ;D


Where is the front page?

That's where I looked, smarty pants.  :P  Must be a link there that I haven't really looked at.

Pretty sure it's there:  Crumbs by Ethan Mawyer, parody of numb by Linkin Park on April 23rd, under the Latest Recordings?

Aha...latest recordings!  Thanks  ;D

Oh, good, so the voting hasn't even started on this yet.  I can us the time.  I'm trying to catch up on some things as well as do the contest voting. 

i'm sorry but i'm putting this back one more week because of finals. it should be back to normal after that

i'm sorry but i'm putting this back one more week because of finals. it should be back to normal after that

That's fine,  I think everyone understands the priorities involved,  but can you clarify if that means Friday, May 7th or Friday,  May 14th?  I think mentioning the actual date instead of just "Friday" would reduce the number of questions you are having to field,  especially when people see your comment at some point after your posting date.

Thanks. 

last paper is due the 6th so friday the 7th

I can use the time as well.  I've been preoccupied with other things, so now when the voting date is here, I can devote my full attention to the parodies.

OK--my Official Vote for the "C" Round is here.  There was quite a battle this go-round--I go for laughs, which were provided most heartily by Spaff, Blo-Town and Phil. Taking topicality and creativity into account, Spaff is my choice by a nose (or, at least, by a tongue :D). Continue on, kids!

I loved the ones by Claude, Phil, Jan, and M&P but I'm voting for Mike Armstrong's Crap (Ode to the Garage Sale)

Very much drawn between Ciggies, Car Man, Chicken Tenders and Can Full O' Mace... I'm going to go with Jan's "Chicken Tenders" because as well as being funny, it makes a point that I think ought to be made (and I nearly went for "Ciggies" for exactly the same reason).

As always, I enjoyed y'all's entries. Many gems.

As much as I hate to feed the ego machine that is Claude 4 Prez, I'm afraid I must; "Can Full o'Mace" happens to be one of my favorite parodies on the whole site.

I am still confused... I thought that Ethan meant voting for round C started on Friday the 7th, but I see people already voting. If it closes tomorrow I am never gonna make it to vote - it is already bedtime here and tomorrow I have a full and hectic day...  :\'( I actually had half the C voting done when the board got shut down, and then I never got back to it and then people submitted more stuff and I ahve to find the songs...    :-\\

WOW!  Sure are a lot of Letter "C" entries!  Looks like I know what I'll be doing tomorrow night.  I had to copy them to a Word Doc so I'll be able to keep track of what I'm doing. 

Well, I thought that voting started on Friday too, but at least I've listened to the parodies and my vote goes to "Can Full O' Mace".  It was soooooo funny!

a voting thread will go up tomorrow don't vote on this thread since i won't count it

Oh yay, I DID enter something for us  :D  I totally blanked on this :P

a voting thread will go up tomorrow don't vote on this thread since i won't count it

Ethan,  I know you are busy with school but I don't see a voting thread yet and I thought today was the deadline.  I could use a little more time anyway.  I've just starting evaluating the "C"'s now and will be posting some comments and votes this afternoon and then later tonight after I get back from an engagement I have for dinner.   I trust it will be OK to finish all this up sometime tomorrow (Sat. 05/08/04).  With the contest growing and so many entries I think maybe the time frame of this contest should be longer than the originally proposed 1 week.  But whatever  you want to do is OK,  I appreciate your taking the initiative to propose and manage  this.   Thanks...pr

I think Ethan will be posting the voting thread today, and then we have until mid day next Friday to submit our votes. I  did manage to listen to all the songs last night and have it narrowed down to 4. I imagine Ethan will also be posting the new submissions thread for D today.

I think a week is manageable - but with the board being down everyone was away and then out of synch when they came back - I know I was... :P
