Looking for a muse...

So...I've got a Sunday with no work to do. Since work allows me little to no creative outlet, methinks it's time to write something. But what?

Once the juices are flowing, there's no stopping me. But picking a topic...that's the hard part. SO...suggestions?

I'm best with parody, cynicism, black comedy. Favorite projects are parody songs (a la Weird Al...but um...more dark usually). My best achievement to date is probably the Helen Keller Musical - "Around the Block in 80 Days".

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Since I'm a recovering Catholic, it's not like I'll be in church.

Since you're a recovering Catholic... why not mock what you do understand.

Sunday Morning Church Service:
1. Welcome with making sure EVERYONE knows that you are there like a good Catholic.
2. Liturgy of the Word and Sermon
3. Liturgy of the Eucharist

Just turn on the news - it is ripe with material to parody these days...
1. politics (the campaigns, conspiracy theories, lame duck administrations)
2. the war(s)
3. gas prices
4. the green movement
5. crazy weather
6. the polygamist cult in Texas
7. sports (not a sports person, but I am sure something is happening)
8. the economy (and the housing market)
9. any number of horrible movies out now
10. the Mars' Lander
11. tomato salmonella outbreak
12. I'm sure some celebrity has done something idiotic and worthy of mocking

Enjoy your Sunday.
