i'm gonna stick with the random thoughts ...

• Anyone remember the last "hit" song parody by Weird Al Yankovich? Is it just that his 15 minutes have passed? Is it that there just aren't any good songs to parody any longer? Is it the fault of places like YouTube, where parodies can be made and posted in a matter of days or weeks, thereby making Weird Al ubiquitous and outdated? Is he only fit to be a commenter on "I Love the 80's" and "I Love the 90's?"

I don't know if this will make me uncool, but I like Weird Al. I loved "Eat It." I thought "Amish Paradise" was brilliant. Let's not forget "Fat," "I Lost on Jeopardy," "Another One Rides the Bus," "Gump," "Smells Like Nirvana," "Money For Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies," "I Think I'm a Clone Now," "Like a Surgeon," and "I Love Rocky Road," among others.

OK ... I just googled him and went to Weird Al's site and found out that next month, his "Straight outta Lynwood" drops!
According to his site:
"Featuring parodies of Chamillionaire, Green Day, Usher, R. Kelly and Taylor Hicks (with a total of) 6 brand new music videos!"
• Anyone ever watch "Puppet Master?" Anyone actually scared at any point in the movie? Just wondering is all.

• The WORST movie I have ever watched (three times) is "Killer Klowns from Outer Space." It's SOOOOOOOO bad that if it comes on TV, you are powerless to change the channel. If you haven't seen this movie, then you gotta see it .... I mean, you SHOULDN'T see it!

• The presentation went off without a hitch and all members of my team did a great job. Yay, us!

• Do you think anyone makes a cell phone ring tone that sounds like a phone ringing?

• How many people believe the following exist: Bigfoot; Abominable Snowman; Loch Ness Monster; Sean Hannity.

• I just realized I haven't eaten dinner yet. I'm torn between ham and provolone on sourdough and a chicken caeser salad.

• I still have a ton of work to do before sleeping. I really don't want to do it right now. Ugh.

• Two significant chores done today: a passel of dishes; rearranging the shelf between my sink and stove, which serves as my pantry, including throwing out some outdated stuff. and just generally organizing it. Baby steps, people, baby steps.

• Is anyone actually planning to see the new Rocky movie in the theaters? No, seriously. Anyone? By the way, is there anyone alive with a more inappropriate nickname than Sylvester Stallone being called "Sly?" He isn't even close to sly!

• I just found out that Australia has Kmarts. Why do I find that just weird?

• Tomorrow, I plan to shred a ton of old, unneeded document, including reams of old notes and related matter. Yes, I have a paper shredder and no, I don't have any classified of sensitive document in constant need of shredding. I just LIKE shredding. When I don't have access to a shredder, I rip up papers that I'm throwing away. I think it's part of my mild OCD tendencies.

New addition to the harem!

• Guam once had its own leper colony. Also, the island often was used by the Spanish as a place to hold their prisoners.

Yeah!
The RGFOTD is Back!

I fall to pieces....

My friends cell phone ringtone sounds like an old fashioned rotary phone ringing.
Each time she gets a call some youngun says, 'What's that noise?'

Hoochie Mama said...

OMG! Loved Weird Al!

But, Bigfoot is real! I believe! I saw him. I was 5. He was looking in my bedroom window. We lived in the boonies in Michigan. Like the middle of nowhere! My mom didn't tell me until years later that there were other sightings of him. It was in the paper. Most people think I'm crazy, but he's real and he does have red glowing eyes like they say.

Now I have to read the rest of your post... not sure as to why I'm not a DZERette yet. I'll sign up now! :)

My girls and I were just talking about Killer Clowns From Outer Space yesterday. We always watch it whenever it's on TV. How can you look away?

Weird Al was the first concert I ever saw. That man's a genius!

I think most people that live in the country in Michigan have seen BigFoot at least once. It's a right of passage.

JMai said...

1. I love that you were contemplating a chicken caesar salad and not a chicken ceasar salad.

2. Yay successful presentation!

3. Those "I love the whatevers" shows on VH1 are priceless. Every time I see one, they have me roaring. Maybe I don't watch enough TV

terry said...

and like madame, i have a friend (she is the queen of the realm, should you choose to click on that first link on my blog) whose cell phone rings like an old school phone. i love it. best cell phone ringtone ever.

and yaay, on the presentation!

terry said...

and the boogeyman.

Grace said...

OMG, I loved Weird Al's stuff... actually, I think I own one of his CD's. I'm so curious to know what reminded you about him nowadays.

The Savage said...

I have seen worse than Killer Clowns from Outter Space... Oh yeah there really are worse movies...
Six String Samurai is soooooooo much worse

DZER said...

signgurl: I didn't know Bigfoot was a Michigan resident LOL

JMai: I know the my Caesars! LOL

Terry: and here I thought Hannity was the deveel!

grace: Weird Al rocks ... and I saw him on a VH1 "I love the 90's" show :)
