A back up dancer for Al was at the Star Wars event at your library? That's awesome! I really think that would be the last place I'd encounter an Al association. I thought it was unexpected when I saw someone at the dental office wearing a Weird Al t-shirt. But the strangest was a girl getting Al painted on her thumb nail when I went to get a pedicure. Naturally, I instantly made her my friend.

It really was kinda bizarre. I was totally not expecting it!

Watching a documentary about David Klein, inventor of Jelly Belly jelly beans, and Al is shown from time to time offering commentary about the candies. I learned that Jelly Belly beans are vegetarian in that they have no gelatin in them. In the words of Al "I have heard that they have a little bit of beeswax in them, but I always say "Screw the bees!"

Did you see Candyman on The Documentary Channel, or is it available elsewhere?

I was playing Trivial Pursuit this evening and was playing for the Music pie slice when the following question was read:
What was the name of the "Weird Al" Yankovic parody of the Michael Jackson hit, "Bad"?
At first I thought it was Like A Surgeon, but remembered at the last second it's White & Nerdy.
I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.

another YouTube reference! I was watching an episode of Stupid Mario Brothers and I heard the Plumbing Song (by Al, duh) very faintly in the background. It started from the first pre-chorus (shower's backin' up, up, up?) and ending just before the bridge.


Oh! and by the way, the answer is "Fat" you :censored: IDIOTS!!!!!!!
Al's working on Album #14 RIGHT NOW (kinda)!!!!
