1. I don't want to say that this stuff writes itself...

because I know how talented you are, but I think * gives you more material than you know what to do with on any given day.

[nostamj]

5. i've often said that if i used ALL the material I HAD

for the ?W Revue....

it would have run SEVERAL HOURS. easily!

2. Oh my God, it's an instant classic.

Can I forward this?

4. of course!

thanks!

p.s. yikes, just realized didn't answer your last PM about the tape. soon. unexpected problems with video transfer of the audio. I may just send a live recording from the sound system instead. very very sorry. and the debate piece.... :wow:

[Dudley_DUright]

3. Now your parody song will be stuck in my head all day

Thanks a lot Jeff. ;-)

[nostamj]

7. sorry about that!

6. Great Stuff

[nostamj]

8. thanks!!! but, it seems I can't compete with LYNN CHENEY

threads this morning... <sigh>

11. Don't be discouraged

For two reasons:
Cleverness is not necessarily the coin of the realm on DU.
And secondly, sometimes things are so good that the reader feels he has nothing to add to a posting.
For instance, I wrote "Great Stuff" hesitantly, because I thought it was an inadequate response to something that was so professional (And disciplined.) But knowing that these clever pieces can often be under-responded to I figured I'd add my two cents as encouragemnt.
Anyway, don't let it get you down. I certainly see your little parody evolving into an internet hit; animated cartoon and all.
And when you got people like Plaid responding to you, you're pretty much pleasing the audience you want to please. The one's for whom cleverness IS the coin of the realm.

[nostamj]

12. thanks! greatly appreciate the kind words...

and you're right 'cleverness' doesn't last long

and it was GREAT to get the reply from PA. (I actually used one of HER parodies in my ?W Revue this summer)

[nostamj]

9. oh well.... i tried to add a little humor

but, this forum is TOO fast today
