Subject: Crazy Don's G-rated missing persons quiz is over!
GAME OVER--THANKS FOR PLAYING
I am taking a few lines from a novelty or parody song and leaving out a word or two, maybe three. The missing word is a name. For bonus points, name the song by title and artist; and if it is a parody, you get more bonus points if you name the song it's spoofing. This version is cleaner than Philbo Baggins' missing persons quiz.
(J. C.) 1. Please, Mr. Custer, I don't wanna go
Larry Verne--Mr. Custer
(Zella) 2. Up in the sky
A man in a plane
Baron von Richtoven was his name
The Royal Guardsmen--Snoopy vs. the Red Baron
(J. C.) 3. He ordered Chet's guitar course C. O. D.
Ray Stevens--Gitarzan
(BTW, the Chet is Chet Atkins, a famous country guitarist and producer.)
(Dagwood) 4. I said, "Don't look, Ethel," but it was too late
Ray Stevens--The Streak
(lebeiw15) 5. Art Fleming gave the answers
But I couldn't get the questions right
Weird Al Yankovic--I Lost on Jeopardy! (spoofs "Jeopardy" by the Greg Kihn Band)
(J. C.) 6. Oh me-a, oh my-a
I wish that Shania
Would buy me a house in South Carolina!
Cledus T. Judd--If Shania Was Mine (spoofs "Any Man of Mine" by Shania Twain)
(J. C.) 7. It's that Faith Hill CD
They're all sold-outable
Cledus T. Judd--Christ-Mas (spoofs "This Kiss" by Faith Hill)
(J. C.) 8. Igor on chains backed by his baying hounds
Bobby "Boris" Pickett--Monster Mash
(J. C.) 9. You better come home, Speedy Gonzales
Away from cannery row
Pat Boone--Speedy Gonzales
(Taoist) 10. You remember Leonard Skinner
He got ptomaine poisoning last night after dinner
Allan Sherman--Hello Mudduh, Hello Fadduh!
This quiz is now over. Thank you very much.

Wouldn't be Elton John, by any chance?
Phil
Subject: Re: Crazy Don's G-rated missing persons quiz, + hi
Nope, it's a female…and BTW, "Elton John" wouldn't fit the feel of the song because "Elton" is two syllables.

7. I Know everything but the words in astericks. Do I need to answer the missing name, or can I say what I know?

Correct on both. They were mentioned in the Cledus T. Judd songs "If Shania Was Mine" (which parodied Shania's "Any Man of Mine") and "Christ-Mas" (a spoof of Faith Hill's "This Kiss.")
