Here's a video that goes well with this thread.

Dude! Love that song/video! It had everything in it! Weird Al is still awesome. :D

(That's good...right?:D )

I'm a little miffed by that video. In it he says that he was "first in [his] class at MIT."

Weird Al is a graduate of Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo (which happens to be my alma mater). He recorded his first hit, "Another One Rides the Bus" in the men's room in the Graphic Communications Bldg. (it is right across from the campus radio station, KCPR). He used the bathroom for the better acoustics (free reverb).

Uh oh... did my geek quotient go up because I knew that?

Yes. Or maybe your dork quotient.;):p

Does my geek quotient go up because I'm friends with Weird Al's Cal Poly roommate?

Cal Poly is nowhere NEAR as nerdy a reference as MIT.

Besides, the song is not about him, it's a character.

That's cool! I'm a fan of Al myself!

His new album is just comming out "Straight Outta Lynwood".

This is a song from that album, called "Don't Download This Song" which you can, of course, download from his website!;)

Geeksville all the way, man!:snap:

One more Weird Al thing before I start a new thread...
