In Oregon, we have a little law called Measure 11. Certain crimes including physical assault=mandatory jail time. Doesn't matter if it's a first offense or not. And I don't think there is an age limit. If you're 13 or 30... mandatory jail time. Do not pass go, do not collect $200.

one day in my choir class i was talking to my friend kyle about weird al. this dumb girl comes up to me and goes "weird al yankovich?" and i said "NO!! it's YANKOVIC!! no H!!" but she argued with me. she said "no, it's yankovich" and i said "dont even try to argue with me! i've been a huge weird al fan for 7 years. you probably wouldnt know him if you saw him! just stop now before you make yourself look like an even bigger idiot, if that's even possible!" but she said "yankovich" again, so i went crazy and bit her real hard on the arm. she was scared of me for the rest of the year and she never said "yankovich" again.


Wow...that reminds me of the time one of my friends bit my arm so she eat my last Cheese-It.

Screen shot from my computer after I went into Windows Media Player to play Poodle Hat.



Also, tonight at work, I corrected someone on a number of occasions...

"It's Yankovic, not Yankovich"

"You should probably check weirdal.com because some of the stuff you find on the internet isn't actually by Weird Al"

Plus, I reminded him of the name "Running With Scissors" and hinted toward him buying Poodle Hat.

All with a voice that was monstrously hideous on account of a sore throat. Stupid immune system.

And there is no "p" in "hamster" either, since we're talking about misspellings. It is not "Harvey the Wonder Hampster".

Man, I always do that. Because it sounds like there's a "p" in there. I also mispell misspell.



And did I tell you I also misspelled Orthography Enthusiast on her concert tshirt? Oh, the shame of it... :dontgetit:

Hey, even Hampsterdance.com misspelled it, and you'd think they would have known!

I never had that problem ever. Then again, that's probably because I use to have a lot of hamsters.



Especially fun when the chinese dwarf hamster (that wasn't suppose to be pregnant) had eight babies.
