My guess would be cream of chicken and broccoli.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

That's not a silly question! It's an important topic that should be disussed more in this country....

I actually don't drink Kool Aid or sodas or the like as it's way too much sugar for me! I used to prefer the lime flavor when I was a kid,though.

Aloha,

Jim

Just so you don't feel left out of the in-joke about the soup...  During the last chat that Bermuda did with us, someone asked him the infamous soup question



When we found out that you were going to answer questions for us, I was afraid that someone was going to ask you a goofy question like that, and I told everyone that they'd better not, or I'd ban them for life.    People kept joking that they'd like to know what your answer would be, and it became an in-joke.  So now you're up to speed on it.

Hey... Jon never did get back to us on that soup thing...  :lol:
Let it go Scotti....it's Snoodletown......

That sounds like how I'd answer questions like that :lol:
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

Hmm...my guess would be chili (which belongs in the soup family ;) ) It usually has some tomato in it, plus a whole lot more

Is it true that all the greatest hits of rock and roll were actually written by ancient astronauts?

Jim, this is a question only someone as wise as you can answer. ^_^

Jim, when you blew up in the Eat It video, were you method acting, much like Emo Phillips claims he was when Al cut off his thumb in UHF?
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

It's almost like not acting at all, but just being yourself. Definition:
"The Method" requires an actor to draw on his or her own emotions, memories, and experiences to influence their portrayal of a character.
Actually, now that I think of it, Emo said he was a methadone actor, meaning that Al actually cut off his thumb. So, if Jim were a methadone actor, then he really blew up. :lol:
