Generic Al Blather 2.0

I have red and black checked ones, the Aloha blues, and now I really do want a third pair. I'm just torn between the black and white checked ones, which would go with some of my Star Fund merchandise, or these really cute ones called black rosy, which are pink, with black roses on them. Decisions, decisions.

The Vans Store at our outlet center is expanding. You really should win the lottery and fly out here!

Don't tell fred. She'll buy out the store!

How many pair now, fred? 118?

Anyway, seeing the checked Vans with a mini skirt was kinda cool.

I stumbled upon this product the other day. It's not exactly Al-related, but I think it's appropriate to link to:

Lynwood Oval Decal

Perhaps something to pick up before one does some concert-following in the coming year?

That's very cool, Greg! It would indeed be perfect for tour chasing.

I forsee many a bumper with that sticker on it around SOL tour time. Cool find, Greg!

As a random note back to something earlier in here-- I would love a pair of Vans myself, but the closest thing I can get is some knock-offs from Wal*Mart. =/

Ah, well. Next time I get my grubby hands on some money, TO WAL*MART I GO.

(I mean, besides the whole Weird Al connection, I just think they look spiffy. 8D)

EDIT: Well, I'm kinda proud of myself; I made a video to "Attack of the Radioactive Hamsters from a Planet Near Mars", and someone on Youtube posted a comment asking if I could send them the song... my mind instantly went "NOO", and I posted up, politely refusing-- that would not only be illegal, but it would make me feel guilty. (I own the CD and ripped it off of that for the video.)

So, go me and my keepin' it legal.

Great job for keeping it legal. Did you send them information about what CD they would have to purchase to get the song. Get your inner salesperson out and sell some Al CDs to the hooligan.

there aren't any spoilers or anything, just someone putting Al's name on a bunch of songs that aren't his

On another note, I want to order a copy of TWAS, but I'll need to get my dad to do it. What methods of payment can you use? Does the Mothership accept paypAL?

I left a comment in the guestbook for that site. There were more songs there that aren't by Al than songs that are by him. Also, who gave this person permission to host mp3 files? Grrr!
