I think this was the best of my James Joyce/Kurt Cobain tribute.

this is one of my all-time faves, despite its failure at the box office

I know there's a big DKTOS factor, but it's to the Bob Dylan song from "Wonder Boys"

An updated version of one of my best parodies:
Bye Bye Little Chevy of Mine

We've all heard songs about random topics, but how many have been written about the 1973 Arab oil embargo and the death of the muscle cars?

I'd wonder if it makes sense to join these tournaments again, but I haven't yet found a way to wonder at something and get paid for it.

So right then, I'm here to play halo and I hope you crazy kids and old farts will come join me. And why not listen to some Voltaire while you're at it. The man was nice enough to provide a free mp3 of one of his songs. And I just so happen to have a parody of just that song:

It's struck me that in theory I could post a M-G parody for SOTM for both September and October... but given the dearth of poopie parodies recently I'm going with this one instead:
