CC 106: Heart of the Sunrise by kaufman 3-14-02

Ah, the perfect drink. Tequila, orange juice, and ... honey, have you seen my grenadine? I think Joanie was playing with it out in the yard. Joanie has my grenadine? Oh no, I hope I'm not too late. Ha ha. Whee!

The Calling of the Almost Famous Owner of a Lonely Heart by DexX 3-15-02

BRRRIIINNNNGGGG-BRRRIIINNNNGGGG!!! ... BRRRIIINNNNGGGG-BRRRIIINNNNGGGG!!! ... BRRRIIINNNNGGGG-BRRRIIINNNNGGGG!!! ... BRRRIIINNNNGGGG-BRRRIIINNNNGGGG!!! ... *sigh* I get so lonely sometimes... Going out for these long walks just doesn't seem to help any more... Why didn't that casting agent call back? Sorry boss - he isn't answering the phone. I've been calling for hours. Oh well, we'll just have to give the role to someone else. Poor bastard - this is the kind of role that could have launched his career...

It wasn't until after I had saved that last one that "Almost Famous" was a movie soundtrack they contributed to, not an actual song title. Oh well...

After those ones, I decided to have a go at a series. Here it is...

CC106: Sound Chaser, one - Walls by DexX 3-15-02

*snore* *THUMP!* *sngt* Huh? Whuh? *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* What the hell is happening on the other side of this wall?

CC106: Sound Chaser, two - Leave it by DexX 3-15-02

*THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* Who the hell is making that racket? Ah well, I'll just ignore it and go back to sleep. *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *THUD!* *crash!* *THUMP!* *smash-tinkle!* *THUMP!* *THUMP!* *KER-WHUMP!* GRRR!!!

For those who didn't notice, the pre-orgasmic exclamations in the first panel of the last strip are made up of four Yes song titles, no extra words. I was proud of that little detail. Detracting from that was the song title "Awaken" staring me in the face a moment after saving the first strip. Oh well... again...

This signature has performed an illegal operation and has been shut down.

Actually, it was a movie soundtrack even before you saved that strip.

No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Required by TheBlairZip 3-15-02

What they say: I am down with that new Jay-Z CD! A good friend of mine - he's black - got me hooked! What they really mean: Look 'bro', your people aren't ever going to have it as good as we do. If you think working hard and tyring to fit in is going to get you a seat on the board of directors, especially when we've already got our token black person working the front desk - well, if it's advancement and equality you seek, try Sweden! What it all comes down to: Let me guess, there aren't any positions available at thie time, right? Fuckin' A!

If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all. D'OH!

White Car by Kitty_Kat 3-15-02

Hey Maura.... I have something to tell you. What is it o' sweet love of mine. There's another woman...... grrrrrrr Much better.

Just so you know. I think this is one of the most retarded cc themes I've ever seen. There are too many rules to make it rightly funny. I hope you also remember to take off points from all of the many people who obviosly broke one of your way too stupid rules. I know I have about no right to say anything, but I'm not going to be some subjective little wimp anymore.

My life totally and completely REEKS.

Actually, I have to thank FPD for thinking of this topic, because I discovered that excellent "Magnification" album in the course of my research. I was never much into Yes, but substituting the orchestra for the keyboards makes them sound completely different.

...Trot and Cap'n Bill were free from anxiety and care. Button-Bright never worried about anything. The Scarecrow, not being able to sleep, looked out of the window and tried to count the stars.

Hold On by Kitty_Kat 3-16-02

ohh gosh you hold on good. Damn it where'd you learn to hold like that? You hold me really well, Daddy.

My life totally and completely REEKS.

Here's one featuring a Rush song title and puns a-plenty!

CC 80: La Villa Strangiatto by Namgubed 11-15-01

Excuse me, ma'am, I was following this rabbit, you see, and I fell down a hole, and I asked for help, and nobody would, because everybody hates me... Silence! I am the Queen of Hearts, and you will address me as 'Your Majesty'! Now, what is your name, little girl? If it please your majesty, my name is Alison... Alison Wonderland. There is but one penalty for bad puns... Uh-oh... OFF WITH HER HEAD!!!

Oops, wrong contest. But seriously, folks:

Wonderous Stories, by Jack Handey by Namgubed 3-16-02

Daddy, what makes it rain? That's just God crying. But why is God crying? Probably because of something you did.

Going for "The One" by Namgubed 3-16-02

As members of Yes congregate ... Say, did you guys hear that Trevor Rabin's getting offers to do movie soundtracks? Really? Well, good for him, then! Who's offering, by the way? He gets to choose from a couple of Jet Li projects, either "The One" or "Matrix II". Wow! I wonder which project he'll be going for.

Oh and your rules just sorta counter each other, and it can be a little confusing. So I guess the rules aren't as stupid.... Its the maker of the rules.... well whatever.

"Don't kill the Whale" by lara7
