Subject: RE: Anybody else hate parodies?
Oh for heaven's sake...........Like a parody is demeaning or something. Unbelievable....."my beloved Hootie and the Blowfish"........I think I'm gonna' throw up. Songs are songs....a parody is simply a joke and Bev and Jerry have it right. They may not appeal to a particular audience and you need to be more aware of your audience in doing them, but for gawdsakes people, have a laugh and try not to keep the Preparation H folks in business. When they are well done they are both funny and pointed and if their humor is below your station and intellect then just avoid them.

This one came up after the Florida election debacle and fits the criteria of a decent parody. Oh dearie me, I hope I don't offend any Dylan fans.

Click Here for Real Audio if I did the clicky right.
