When I was a senior in college, my RA would write fictional stories for the college newspaper whose titles were borrowed from songs by Yes. In general, many Yes songs have strange titles, and using them may be useful for sparking creativity. I thought of waiting until CC 90125 to do this contest, but I may be dead then, and I might not win CC 90124 even if I am alive. So let's do it now.

Here are the rules:

1. The title must be the same as or recognizably based on the title of a song by Yes. Titles of song parts are acceptible, but covers of other people's songs do not count. It must be an original Yes song. An album title counts only if it is also a song title. As far as I'm concerned, Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman, Howe also counts as Yes.

2. The strip may not be otherwise Yes-related.

3. The title should have something to do with the content of the strip.

4. Avoid running gags commonly used at Stripcreator.com. such as catch phrases, Tobor cornholing, donkey sodomy, etc.

And just to level the playing field against the person who has won more comics contests than anyone else:

5. Except for the title, which may be a pun, the strip should not have any puns in it. This rule is for everyone, not just kaufman.

If you are unfamiliar with Yes or know no titles of Yes songs, you can review the Yes discography at YesWorld. Follow the Gallery link to the discography.

Series and multiple entries are both welcome.

Judging should be sometime Sunday night after Alias. That's in the X-Files time slot for those of you who still watch that show. For those of you who aren't on Eastern Standard Time, I mean sometime after 10:00 PM EST.
