Now I don't have a creative comment! You guys took the words right out of my mouth--I mean keyboard--I mean brain! I guess it's suffice to say that I award this parody a 5,5,5 vote.

Thanks again, all for votes and comments...and actually, Stuart...your comment about Foghorn L. is funnier than my whole parody..

Damn funny, AFW, $555 credit to you! I agree, btw-- that Foghorn L thing was too much-- good one, Stuart! Check out my Day-O (from last year) if you have time. You might get a kick. Great job!
