  2. I never nap but after I woke up for good today at 4:30 AM with dental pain, I couldn't keep my eyes open by the early afternoon as I tried to listen to a #WeirdAl greatest hits so I ended up crashing on my bed for like 2 hours and 15 minutes. Unfortunately missed all but the final 3 laps of #IndyNXT race as a result.

  3. The first concert I ever attended was #WeirdAlYankovich in fifth grade with my dad, at the height of the Running with Scissors ✂️ 🏃‍♂️ era. It's still one of the best live shows I've ever seen. And #WeirdAl is still the GOAT. 🐐

  9. Random memory / observation...

    Here in #Saskatchewan, we have lots of place names that are memorable or unusual (for English speakers) or just plain odd [1]. Some, like the province's name, are just anglicized words or phrases from various First Nations languages (flavours of Cree, Dene, and others). Others are English translations of such phrases, which may sound odd to native English speakers. Occasionally this oddness gets them used in various contexts, like in Weird Al's "Canadian Idiot", where he says "Eat their weight in Kraft macaroni, and dream of driving a zamboni all over Saskatchewan".

    The random recollection is of a game I used to play on the Amiga computer back in the late 80s or early 90s. I don't recall its name, but it was a driving/racing game of some sort. One of its levels was called Moose Jaw, which is one of our memorable place names (a mid-sized city and home to a Canadian Armed Forces air base).

    The funny part is that the level included towering cliffs, jungle, an enormous waterfall ... anyone who's been to southern Saskatchewan will now be chuckling to themselves. I guess the Swedish developer (IIRC) just thought it was a good, unique name. I doubt he or she had ever been here.

    [1] For example, we have towns for both #Elbow *and* #Eyebrow.
