| Vin, Thank you for re-posting this. I am laughing out loud as hard as I did the first time around. This is sheer brilliance. (I was the one who mentioned this a few months ago.) Maybe we could get more parodies submitted from the other members? I may even give it a try myself. I don't think Jim would mind. He has a a deliciously twisted sense of humor himself. Oh, and to display my ongoing descent into fossilhood, what was the other parody that triggered my memory of this one? We should collect these in a safe (ie: nothing to do with me) place.
