Wow--I actually am going to find this parody topic very difficult--I don't find much about the world funny because I kinda respect all countries as equal. . .I'm going to try but I may have to take a goose egg on this one.

It doesn't nessessarily have to make fun of another country, but you parody can take place in another country. The topic is open to how you interpert it, and what you want to do with it. As long as it basically fits, "Places of the World"

hmmm.. .I'll work on it  ;) I'll come up with something I'm sure--I have trouble with believing in myself sometimes. . .kinda never accepted myself as talented at anything. . .hench the name Below Average, but thanks for the advice on how to interpret it differently, that is much more attainable.

Although I've always changed it in this past, I'm going to try to do "Mysterious Ways" by U2.

My working title is "I Flew To Algeria? Dang!" Let's see where that takes me...

I can't choose a song! All the ones I think about doing so far have either already been done by me (Smells Like Teen Spirit) or Al (Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me) or ar in one of Al's polkas (Losing My Religion, Loser, Closer) so it's hard to stick with it. Help!

There's nothing wrong with doing a song that's already been parodied by you (although it took years before I actually started doing it!). But I don't think you should worry about which song you should use as much as what geographical location you'll talk about.

My parody will probably be submitted tomorrow night as oppossed to tonight, that is before the deadline right?  I haven't put it up yet because I'm still fine tuning it. . . It says 27th, it would be the morning of the 27th though--not the 26th, that's ok right?

Submitted my parody!

As promised, it's to U2's "Mysterious Ways," but now it has a better title with greater humor potential...
