Extreme Reminder

Don’t forget to set your VCRs or Tivos or whatever magical device you have to record “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” for this Sunday (November 13th) as Weird Al makes a special cameo appearance.

    Also, don’t forget to watch me on “MSNBC Investigates: Tattoos: Skin Deep” on MSNBC at 7:00 PM Eastern. Yeah, the show’s from 2000, and the less interesting of the two tattoo shows I’ve been on, but Al does have a brief cameo at the end of my segment, so it’ll make a nice Al two-fer evening.

    Also, Al’s pals Penn & Teller are doing their first network special in eight years, called “Penn & Teller: Off the Deep End” (huh, how about that Al reference!) from 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM on ABC. Yeah, it overlaps “MSNBC Investigates: Tattoos: Skin Deep” and “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” but you could always tape one and watch the other.

    would be cool if someone gets it on computer video format if they have legal rights so all can watch on the computers.

    That show was totally wicked awesome. Al really got that girl going. I think she might have really believed they thought she said polka. That was cool.

    that show was so cool… especially since they brought in weird al to tease amanda (my name) who was 14 (my age)….. but she was like NOO!!! lol

    (My attempt at a transcription of Al’s song:)

    Well, there’s a girl named Amanda, who lives in Wells, Maine
    She never has boys or shopping on her brain
    All she cares about is polka…
    [Amanda protests as Al continues in background]
    …polka
    So I’ll stay right here and polka, polka, polka, polka ’till I die
    Hope you enjoy your new polka room, Amanda!
