More Dorky Stuff From the "Eat It" Guy

The Weird Al Show is coming to DVD in August! Furthermore, he's got a new album due out sometime later this year. You can download one of the new songs from his website.

Thanks to graveyardgreg for the heads-up!

Um ... What? 0.o

The LA Times is reporting that The Pentagon wishes to omit certain Geneva Convention bans from its operations manual.

WTF?

Have any other sources confirmed this? The Sydney Morning Herald and The Guardian are reporting on the story as well, but they're basically quoting the LAT article.

This is not acceptable.

*falls over from awesome*

So I've got this project, y'know, a secret project that's been in the works for a while now. The project has had a lot of ups and downs and twists and turns. But earlier this year I was completely gobsmacked when one of my Top Three Dream Choices for a collaborator on this project said, "Sure, what the heck, I'm in."

For me, getting this particular person on the project is like trying to make a movie and having, say, Kathleen Turner phone up and say "Are you looking for any actresses?"

So now we're getting into the nitty-gritty work of it, and the Mysterious Unnamed Collaborator is sending me materials, and they're great stuff. :) Not like they'd be anything else -- but seeing the actual great stuff instead of just thinking about how great M.U.C.'s stuff will be, still makes me pump my fist in the air and go, "Yes!!!"

Look for an announcement next week, at AnthroCon if not before. Prepare to be amazed. ;)
