I own his videos on VHS, plus a copy of UHF. I'm a Mypoints member, so the last time I had enough points, I redeemed them for a $25 Barnes and Noble gift card and got his latest album. I also am on his fan club's mailing list. Al has a MySpace page, and as my sig says, so do I --just posted a new, monthly blog. Not that what I have on mine has anything to do with Al's but just saying.

One of his very earliest, if I recall.

GREAT Weird Al story -- my oldest son is on his school's whiz quiz team, and last year they won First Place at District - the highest competition at their grade level. At the finals, the one question Brandon chimed in and answered correctly was "Where are the Islands of Langerhans?" Tricky, because it sounds like a geography question, but actually it's anatomy. The Islands of Langerhans are part of the pancreas...

...which Brandon knew not because of the many early morning hours of study and practice with the team, but because of track 2, "Pancreas," on Weird Al's "Straight Outta Lynwood" CD!!

I couldn't have been prouder. :D:
