No Monkey Monday Today
Monkey Monday will return tomorrow, on Tuesday. Today, the Frank J. Fan Club is mourning the passing of Mr. and Mrs. Nick Yankovic, proud mother and father of Weird Al Yankovic, one of the Two Greatest Satirists* of Our Time. Mr. and Mrs. Yankovic were found dead in their homes on Friday past, apparently of carbon monoxide poisoning.
In recognition of Mr. and Mrs. Yankovic's passing, the Blog War with Frank J. has been called off. We're sure they would rather we laughed than fought.
*The other is, of course, Frank J.. We're sure Frank J. is all a-giddy about being spoken of in the same breath as Weird Al.

Posted by: Frank J. at April 13, 2004 03:08 PMI hope not. I saw him live a few years ago, and it was a great time. I highly recommend if the show is not cancelled, you go out and see him.

He's a good guy, and he has my sympathy.
