And you're not supposed to start a sentence with "and."



Oops.



Anyway, it says he's doing an Al-type record, but then it mentions all parodies. Guess Lance Bass isn't quite educated in the World of "Weird Al" Yankovic.
I'm ranking every Beatles song on my new pop culture blog. Check it out!

Or in the world of economics. Al's said that if an album is more than half parodies, it starts being unprofitable, because of the royalties to the writers of the tunes.



So... Mr. Bass is embarking on a probably-cringingly-bad vanity project that will lose him money. What's not to like? :P

Or much of anything else, I daresay.



Not being a big 'Nsync fan, I didn't realize that their bass singer was named Bass. Yes, I know they are pronounced differently. I wonder if that's his real name, or did they just call him that so he could remember which part to sing?



It's a shame, really, that he didn't get to go into space.











Oh, you mean he also wanted to come back? :huh:

Well, she's not listed among the players. Yep, I did look a few months ago. But Jay and Suzanne contributed...





Doing some homework over at The Mothership... (with the current world situation, I have retired that other phrase I was using. Don't want to offend anyone.)



I read somewhere, that Al's oldest Hawaiian shirt is one that belonged to Nick. So I naturally assumed his predilection for them came from his dad, but maybe it came from his mom!

I am flabbergasted. I just came across a Weird Al discussion forum where WhiZZi is a newbie!



WhiZZi, be sure and tell your pals over there which of those songs on the Internet are NOT by Al, OK?

Dave, I noticed the title of your post, but I'm not seeing the picture you intended to show us. Can you fix it? Sounds funny!



Thanks,
