All my deep dark secrets are being revealed... at least the ones that have to do with which topics I've been reallllly slow about reading. :S
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

I know this topic died ages ago but the Wish List thing I only just discovered. Did everyone already figure out that this list is probably why the book is on his wish list? - "The 17 Greatest Weird Al Songs of All Time"

Some of the stuff on Al's wish list has Al referenced or actually in it :lol:

Is the cpfoa-page on weridal.com a "secret" hidden page or something? :think:

I can´t find any link to it from the frontpage and the page menu on top ?

i only heard of it when i read the newbie faq.

Go the the FAQ at the mothership. Towards the bottom of the page, there's a question about how to get an autograph from it and there's a link to the cpfoa page there.

This isn't really an answer, because I didn't send a letter to CPFOA.

When I gave Al the nesting dolls back during the second year of Poodle Hat - 2004 whenever they ccame to Cincinnati - I think August - He sent a thank you note that I received right around my birthday - September.

Oh, a year later!

It was on his personal cardstock stationery that simply said:

Al Yankovic


There was with no return address, either in side or on the envelope, of course, and it was postmarked "Hollywood, CA" .

Somewhere in the body of the handwritten note he made reference to receiving them "a million years ago".

After reading through this topic, I see that 13 months is on the short end! I feel very special! :D

We've been waiting well over a year...BUT he's been pretty busy making a CD, releasing it, and going on tour.

We hope he catches up to the mail when his life settles back down a little.
Hoping the Al goodness never ends...

I've just been trying to muster up the courage to mail him a letter period. I might get him a birthday card. :D

I sent him a fan letter at the beginning of August. It was really stupid, I can't believe I actually sent it. :S
