Weird, but Al’s still having the last laugh

Weird, but Al’s still having the last laugh. Other than the fact that they call the new album Fresh Outta Lynwood (huh??), it’s a good read.

Key quote:

‘I did learn pi to 20 or 30 places at one point in my life
[...] I didn’t do vector calculus, but when I was 12, I really would do algebra just for fun. Instead of doing homework, I’d ask my relatives to come up with algebra problems for me to solve.’

Hehe! Nerd! Oh wait, I did that too…
