    My ex once retrofitted a 1999 theater-grade 3-chip DLP projector to use UHP lamps instead of Xenon. Result: 132" HD screen bright as all fsck! And this was in 2005, long before people in our income bracket could get HDTVs.

    I listened to my Weird Al in 3D cassette until it stopped working. Awesome album.
    Ah, yes. How could I forget the melodic juxtaposition that was Nature Trail to Hell in 3-D?

    This is not classic Al.
    Bad Hair Day is almost 15 years old now (well, it's like 13 right now, but shut up). That's more than enough to push it close to classic, since the songs it was based on would be older than that, and anything before that IS classic. Classic=good and old, not just old. I could poop in a box and save it for 30 years. That wouldn't make it classic.

    This is not classic Al. Classic Al is Stuck in a Closet With Vanna White, Attack of Radioactive Hamsters from a Planet Near Mars, or Another One Rides the Bus. I remember the premier of I Love Rocky Road on MTV.

    Now get off my lawn! Durn kids.

    Cookie choice?


    Classic Weird Al is classic for a reason. I like the newer stuff, but anything from Bad Hair Day back is gold.

    Older Weird Al at that!

    I think that was 1994. Man Alapalooza was an awesome album.

    I got to watch a 3 block big TV a few weeks ago.

    It was on top of Fremont Street in Vegas.

    Used to have a link to the ad for that. (can't remember if it was 152" or 172") The TV cost over $27,000 if I recall correctly

    Personally, if I were gonna spend anything over a couple hundred bucks for a tv, I'd go instead for a top-quality digital projector, and the price on those has really been dropping the last couple years.

    Btw, for any gamers out there, nothing beats playing a first person shooter on a larger-than-life sized screen.
    Ha ha! That's what we did; made our own 100 inch projector screen. we broke it in by watching all of the Terminator and Die Hard movies. And right now the kids are playing Wii on it.

    Has he considered how he would even get a 151' tv into his home?

    Maybe. Like he came back and looked at the TV wall as if he was expecting our store to have one. We're not specifically an electronics store so I don't know. I don't know if he realized it was about 12 feet.
