**Xavier** dear, you’ve been whooshed (or I have maybe). This thread _is_ a parody of the parody thread. 😃 That’s why it’s funny. ---

Yeah, yeah. I make it a point to point out the obvious. It makes me look stupid in the hope it will put a smile on everyone’s face. The point now is: Why won’t my link work??? ---

Mine wasn’t supposed to be a link - it just did that to me from the url tags I cut & pasted. :o Perhaps we are both damned when it comes to links today, **Xavier** At least we’ve got each other to be linkless with. ---

Well, two I’m getting sued for technically sueing myself - so it could be seen as a counter-sue. The other is my neighbour. We don’t live in an idyllic world. I’ll have you know my linking abilities meet minimum state requirements. I was voted “linker of the year” in school… That was the year before the principal expelled me for drink-linking. ---

😃 You should stop suing yourself, then you wouldn’t get sued, right? Sorry about the neighbor. I’d like to beat my neighbors but alas that might lead to a … lawsuit. (Maybe I should stop hijacking **Max’s** thread). Good Luck with your lawsuits & linking, **Xavier** ---

Hey, what does this have to do with parodies…er…perogies! Actually what I find interesting is how the parody thread (this one) wound up with more posts than the original thread (the parody thread.) 🙂 Regardless, I did wind up with a few good recipies. ---
