Cool, and to think tomorrow I can have a Jell-O Shot in his honor.... (he's credited for the creation of them).
You're gonna take a walk in the rain and you're gonna get wet... I predict.

I used to listen to Tom Lehrer records as a kid. My Dad is a big fan

Tom Lehrer videos on YouTube!

There are 12 or so wonderful performance clips from the 60s.
This means something. This is important.

Somebody did a blog recap of the career of David Bowe.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

Whoever wrote that really loves UHF!

Of course his being in UHF was always the kicker, I think I rented that movie so many times from my local library that I was actually able to recite it word for word before I could do the same with the pledge of allegiance.

A very nice article about David Bowe, its clear this guy has much respect for him. :)

Wow, this guy was pretty meticulous. Definitely a big David Bowe fan. I will probably check a few of the movies out. I noticed a comment from David himself. Very cool!
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

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

So awesome!
