Oh, I already know Al is taller than me. Most people are.

*Sigh*... just remembering at Alcon, when Al and I were facing each other, trying to get through a passageway between two rooms. He didn't notice me, I don't think. I just looked up at him in awe. *He was going into a room that I was leaving* I really noticed how much taller he was then.

Btw, IIRC, Al is 6 feet tall. It says he's 6'1" there.
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

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

So awesome!

Today in the Orange County Register, this is a small picture of Al and next to it it says, "He told us to 'eat it' 'like a surgeon' while celebrating 'my bologna' because 'girls just wanna have lunch'. Parodlist "Weird Al" Yankovic will be 46 on sunday."

Toyfare magazine always seems to reference Al whenever there is an event in his life. They quoted BBOTIM the week PH came out, and now the newest issue mentions the Transformers movie and has the headline of Bots Love Weird Al ( I think, I dont have it in front of me). And there was another thing in there that I thought was an Al reference but I forget what it was at this moment.

I saw a brief Al mention on CMT last night. It was a show about Country Comedy. In the Cledus T. Judd bit, some guy called him the "Weird Al" of Country music.

I guess that's better than calling Al the "Cledus T." of Rock music.

I knew the Al mention was gonna be on that show, I just didna know who was going to say it. I feel bad for Cledus because that's how he will always be known, but then again, it keeps Al being mentioned.


And to update my earlier post, the other Al reference was referring to how the Green Goblin in the movie looked like a Power Ranger.

I didn't know where else to put this, so it goes here, until someone gets a better idea. A screenshot I got from the pentiums video, quite by accident. This is it in it's unedited glory.

I'm not being condescending, I'm too busy thinking about far more important things you wouldn't understand.

We have finally sold my mother's house. I was having mixed feelings about letting my childhood home go to strangers until I found out that the husband is an architect... wonder if he plays any musical instruments? :lookaround:
