Subject: Someone stole my "Livin' la Vida Yoda" lyrics

Written By: Lochlann on 10/01/03 at 06:45 p.m.

I was alerted earlier today via e-mail that someone has stolen my "Livin' La Vida Yoda" parody and posted it to various sites as his own work.  The "AmIRight" site's collection of parodies is one such webpage; someone named Mike Raf has posted my lyrics here and claimed them as his own.  I would appreciate it if the appropriate steps were taken to remedy this.  The only place that I have posted this song is on my personal Star Wars website, a link to which I would be happy to provide to anyone who wishes to verify my claim.  Naturally, the nature of internet intellectual material makes it impossible for me to PROVE that I wrote the lyrics--any old person can make a website and copy the lyrics onto it--but I'd rather give it a try than allow someone else to steal my work unchallenged.  Thank you for reading.

it's been removed.. an email to the site owner (me) would have been better, I almost missed this.. I believe the person who posted it has done this before, so I have no reason to doubt it's yours..
