Funny or Die is doing some quality stuff these days. Not sure how they're making enough money to pay these actors though.

I really need to get around to finding UHF someday.



Always surprised how normal he looks too when he drops the glasses and the hair.



And of course, the first time I ever heard a Weird Al Song (yes that is Eric Idle from Monty Python)

Ha, that was awesome! As someone who owns far too many of his albums, this needs to be made.

And IIRC all the actors on funny or die, do it for fun (aka volunteer)

Jurassic Park is frighting in the dark. All the Dinosaur's are running wild. Someone like T-Rex out of his pen. I'm afraid these things will harm me, cause they sure don't act like Barney.

Ever see the live version of YODA? Pure awesome. Youtube-it. My teenage kids are into all sorts of music these days, but they still love Weird Al.

That was sweet. I remember getting free tickets to a Weird Al concert back in 2000 and thoroughly enjoying the spectacle. I couldn't believe how many hard-core fans there were. There was one dude we talked to who was probably the biggest Weird Al fan ever. He slammed beers and screamed his lungs out the whole time. He went absolutely nuts when he played "Like a Surgeon".

Although not his best song, All About the Pentiums is definitely one of my faves.

This must be made for real now. The rest of my life will be nothing but a dissapointment if it doesn't come to fruition.

I went to a concert a few years ago and got a picture with him. He seemed so meek and humble (in the 10 minutes I saw him).

Haha Patton Oswalt as Dr. Demento. I've caught him a few times on Sirius Raw Dog, that guy's really starting to grow on me.

Patton Oswalt is flippin' hilarious. His best bit is on what he would do if he could go back in time.

NSFW (language)

My sister, cousins and I always listen to "Albuquerque" when we're all in the car together. 11 minutes of total randomness.
