I decided to look up Al on IMDB and in the facts it said that he had founded a record company after my bologna. Is this true? I don't think I have ever heard this before.
He used the money he earned from "My Bologna" to found his own short-lived record label, Placebo Records, which released his second record (an "EP" record with only 4 songs). Copies of the record are hot collector's items. -- IMDb Trivia: 'Weird Al' Yankovic

Yeah it was basically a made up record company that existed solely to release Another One Rides The Bus. Hence "Placebo."

It's funny because I take these records twice a day.

Hahahahah! Nice. I think it would make for a great name of an actual record company. I also haven't checked IMDB and looked up Al for a while.

It's nice that you used to do that regularly.
