Loved the eyebrows on Mike, Gypsie, Dr. Forrester, and everyone else. I was vaugely reminded of the cover shot for some magazine that had dozens of kids wearing HP glasses.

Ralphie, you are brilliant! That was wonderful. And what a combo of easy/terrible tract to MST.

Brilliant as always, Ralphie. MST3K is definitely the way to go with these things.
I’m having a hard time getting over that appallingly bad representation of the Protestant Reformation. Makes me wonder how Jack thought Martin Luther stumbled across that Bible they’d managed to hide from everyone. After all, it’s not like he was a Roman Catholic priest assigned to teach Biblical Studies at the University of Wittenburg or anything.

I have sometimes wondered how IHS ever became an accepted abbreviation for Iesous Christos, though. Maybe if I’d taken a few more years of Latin I’d have learned about abbreviation conventions. Posts: 9866 | Registered: Apr 2002

Man, I had no idea how much Mooselet had in common with the Fonz and Don Knotts. That's just awesome.

muppet, don't get ahead of yourself. We're trying to sell a cow here, not run some kind of charity dairy stand.

Toni- Wow! You know, you are MUCH funnier than Chick. And the writing is so tight and consistent. Somebody should really be paying you for these.
I knew you were brilliant and funny, but once again, I am in awe.

Was this in reference to what I said? I unwittingly ouwitted myself in my attempt to find a wittier way to ask "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?" In other words, Toni being the attention whore that she is, save the compliments until after she delivers the goods. Posts: 4534 | Registered: Jan 2003

Parodies are usually usually protected by fair use, although it depends on a number of factors, including the amount of the original work copied, whether the parody is being used for profit, and the amount of distribution of the parody. I'd say she's probably safe, should the issue actually come up.
Were the original tracts non-profit? I know that Wierd Al won a lawsuit that Eimenim brought against him for parodies. If the original tracts were non profit then I would think there are even fewer grounds for complaint. It isn't like it would cause a loss of livelihood.
