irc.parody actually points back to me.  It looks like I intended to set 
up a reference to the web-based IRC chat, but never finished creating 
the links.  I also never noticed that .parody is not linked on the 
opennic home page.  Eesh.

All right, with that in mind there is a chance that .parody could still 
see new life.  IF there is an interest shown here, I will probably wipe 
out the existing (non-used) domains that are registered, and bring the 
TLD back to life once I have converted over to the galium registration 
system.  So if you have interest in the TLD continuing, it's now or 
never - let me know!
