oops, that was strange.
what i meant was,
i just saw (for the tenth time) a behind the scenes on Weird Al Yankovitch
i was very surprised to note how intellegent he seemed
i wouldn’t be surprised to find he has one of the highest I.Q.'s in pop entertainment
i have a whole new respect for him
I’m pink therefore I’m Spam
I adore Weird Al. I should think if he writes all those parodies by himself he would have to be pretty smart.
I believe that’s Yankovic. I think it’s most sad that he’s alone. But, he doesn’t seem to mind it too much. If he’s happy, then he’s happy.

What do you mean he’s alone? I’m available if he’s interested! I love his stuff! Fat!
smilingjaws- be forewarned, he judges a woman by the size of her nostrils.
Anyways, check out www.weirdal.com for lots more info on him (Weird Al FAQs galore), his tours, and his music.

This is not a sig.
thanks for correcting my spelling ARG220.
is your sig a refrence to Pam Thum? i like her music too
I’m pink therefore I’m Spam
(hijack) Pam Thum? I saw her perform a few of her newer songs before our Christmas break… It was at a ‘Heaven’s Gate, Hell’s Flames’ drama at a local AOG Church. Music wasn’t bad, if you’re into the contemporary scene…her father’s a little strange though. (end hijack)

Melanie: No problem. 
My sig is from some song I heard on the Christian radio station. It could be Pam Thum, although I don’t know. I just think that one line is very true, so it’s my sig.
“Life is hard…but God is good”
I adore Weird Al. I asked him to marry me but got a reply back that my site was cool and I seemed nice but Al didn’t date married chicks. DAMN! He did answer one of my questions though, http://weirdal.com/aa0199.htm
I think he is GORGEOUS and I’ve always thought he was smart. He’s also got a sense of humor that just aligns really well with my own. UHF is one of the greatest movies ever, along with Shakes the Clown.

for a real kick go to an MP3 site such as napster.com and do a search on “weird al”…last time I was there there was all sorts of “bootleg” type stuff there that’ll never see a studio album. (For instance, I believe I remember seeing something called “The Vagina Song.” See what I mean?!)
Oh, I liked in the Q&A on his site where someone asked “I heard Madonna’s version of “American Pie.” Why’s she stealing YOUR stuff now?” LOL, he said he thought his version was STILL funnier. HA!

Did you know Al has won 2 Emmys? Doesn’t surprise me in the slightest (well, does surprise me that he hasn’t won more). And his dad is Frank Yankovic, The Polka King (Frank Yankovic and his Yanks). What the Dopers think of his new look? No bangs or mustache or glasses. Kinda cool.
Weird Al rocks (everyone in chat knows I’m a huge fan). I play “Running With Scissors” in my car in an unending loop. I can’t listen to “Grapefruit Diet” without laughing.
When Behind the Music was on last Friday night I was watching with a few friends. Although the used to pick on me for liking Al, I found out there are closet fans! They were turning up the songs and laughing away.
So come out of the closet people! Be proud of being an Al fan!

Babar–Weird Al is NOT related to Frankie Yankovic. Al’s dad’s name is Nick.
My favorite Weird Al role was as the Cabbage Man in an episode of “Amazing Stories,” where he got to act with the Cold Miser himself, Dick Shawn.

He’s won two Grammys, not Emmys. And his dad isn’t Frank, but Frank was the reason his parents chose the accordian for him.
What would Brian Boitano do / If he was here right now /
He’d make a plan and he’d follow through / That’s what Brian Boitano would do.
Where can I get song lyrics of Weird Al’s? My tapes are scattered hither and yon, and I haven’t gotten around to bugging my brother for his. I just really want to know the words to “One of Those Days”.
Hey Opal! Long time no hear! Howya doin’ hon?
My kids adore Weird Al, and I like most of his stuff (Albuquerque is NOT one of them).
