Jeff, does a "Q" parody have to have at least one word in it that starts/contains the letter "Q"? Not that I'm trying to skirt the rules on this (I don't even have a "Q" parody at the moment) just that if I write one that happens to have a Q (or X, Z, etc) title I'm curious on eligibilty. Thanks.

The first word of the parody's title has to start with Q...

Or something like "The Quest", "A Quick Visit To Florida" or "My Quirky Duodenum".

I'd go for the first two...but "My Quirky..." would be a no go...
If I were in charge, anyway. And, really, I sort of am. At least in my own mind.

Thanks Arwen. I think I'll try to get working on one called "Queen Arwen", I haven't written a tribute to you yet. ;)

I've got one titled "The A The the A the Quince" - could I have a ruling please?

Limit of 5 articles before the "Q" word, so no, it isn't allowed. ;D
Oh, Arwen, I DO have an OS in mind for that title but not a whole lot of information to go on. PM me or post anything that should or shouldn't be included in a queenly tribute.

We've finally reached the second most ridiculous letter of the alphabet (after X...what a bass turd letter that is!), and not surprisingly I only have one eligible parody:
Quaaludes
Good luck, all!!

What everyone said as far as the rulings (except for Stu's...I'll lose sleep figuring out what letter THAT qualifies for!)

This parody is brought to you by the letter Q...
If anybody at all knows country songs, or Harry Potter...
