Well, I've previously gone on about how much I like Weird Al Yankovic (been a fan for many years). Geeky, smart, funny, hey, it works for me... (On a side note, there's a good interview with Weird Al in Rolling Stone.)

Anyway, yesterday we were out I picked up my very own copy of Straight Outta Lynwood. Pretty good stuff, and I hear it's doing extremely well for Al, being his first Top 10 album.

My favorite is, of course, White & Nerdy, but the whole album is amusing. I got several laugh out loud moments when I was first giving a listen-through. I specifically got a huge laugh from this bit (from Close But No Cigar), about a reason for breaking up with a girlfriend:

Except she was always using the word "infer" When she obviously meant "imply" And I know some guys would put up with that kind of thing But frankly, I can't imagine why

(Because, I will admit, the infer/imply thing really annoys me when people do it, argh.)

Anyway, the lyrics of Don't Download This Song (which, of course, I did download from the official Don't Download This Song site), worked:

So don't download this song Don't go pirating music all day long Go and buy the CD like you know that you should Oh, don't download this song
