I admit, I wish I'd seen that segment because I'd love to have seen the look on her face. But it does occur to me that:

1) Just because Al , while telling a joke, says he's done something, that doesn't mean he's actually done it.

2) After three years of marriage, Suzanne is undoubtedly *ahem* fully abreast of Al's interest in such matters.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

Very true. It's not a truly disgusting thing to do. Most people did, just to make sure that it really did happen before they go galavanting off and making a huge fuss about it.

But now I know two things about Al that i didn't before:

He has TiVo.

He watched the superbowl.

But then, he is, after all, an American.

4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Just goes to show ya, those who don't trust weirdal.com are always the last to know!
Thanks for the quick action, Bermuda.

You know, I was thinking about this post today. In all the excitement, Al still remembered his fans, and wanted them to know the good news right away. Whattaguy!

Yeah, I saw that post and thought it was very cool that Al called Jon so quickly after he found out he won! What a cool guy!

Wow. To be honest, little people like us would be the last thing on my mind if I'd just been given such an honor. Just another reason why you gotta love Al.

Congratulations to Al and the rest of the band on the Grammy win! We couldn't be happier for you guys! :)

As I posted elsewhere, the lack of any formal announcement on air probably won't affect Poodle Hat sales a lot. But maybe it'll bump sales enough to make it a Gold Record here. Al deserves at least that much.
