From today's QOTD:

Well, now I've gone and done it! Ever since this morning the idea of a QOTD musical has been stuck in my head.

I see a musical interlude between Gue, LuckyLady and Nomad as they discuss the best way to send meat back in a restaurant. A tie-died costume change during the production number called "How often did you make tie dye in the 1970's"

And of course Karla has a show-stopping solo about what she goes through to come up with new ideas.

But what would we use for a plot?

Oh, there would have to be a song about using smileys, too. Like "Put on a Happy Face" in Bye Bye Birdie...

Two of the posters noticing they keep having remarkable similar answers. After a series of chance encounters they discover they're actually long lost cousins. Or maybe childhood sweethearts.

When a freak blizzard threatens the north, everyone decides to come to a big meet-up party at Nomad's house.

& a fight breaks out at the pole position! LOL!

Great idea! Except I would never fight with Luckylady & Nomad....

Unless they were in the way while I was running to the pole position...LOL!

It would start with the toe tapping waiting for the day's question (singing in the rain playing in the background?) and then the theme from Chariots of Fire as they race for that first spot.

I want to see the costumes everyone would wear. They would reflect our names (if possible). Like I might have a hat with caladiums on it.

In the grand finale Magnum Mike would fly his plane over the audience.
