Okay, this time I brought the tape, and I'm going to post the entire back
cover of the box.

	  What are you waiting for? Give meaning to your life...
          with the ``Weird Al'' Yankovic Video Library.

   ``Fat'' from EVEN WORSE. ``Smells Like Nirvana'' from OFF THE DEEP END.
   ``Like A Surgeon'', ``One More Minute'',
   ``Dare To Be Stupid'', and ``This Is The Life'' from
   DARE TO BE STUPID.  ``Eat It'', ``I Lost On Jeopardy''
   from IN 3-D. ``Living With A Hernia'', ``Christmas At
   Ground Zero'' from POLKA PARTY.  ``Ricky'', 
   ``I Love Rocky Road'' from ``WEIRD AL'' YANKOVIC.

   Total program time: 45 minutes. Color and B&W.

And that's the entire back (except for the Scotti Bros. logo and the UPC!). No
mention of ``UHF'' anywhere. But it's there, and it's shown in between ``Smells
Like Nirvana'' and ``Like A Surgeon''. Does this mean that I've won some con-
test? :-) :-) Honest, it's really there. I can even list the people he imper-
sonates (except for two or three), plus some of the footage from the movie. Has
anyone else got a copy with ``UHF'' (the song) so that I know I'm not hallucin-
ating? :-)

BTW, in the video for ``This Is The Life'', there are some scenes from at least
one other movie that I don't believe Al was in. The scenes included Michael
Keaton, what looked like Marilu Henner, Danny Devito, and what looked like
Robert Duvall. It seemed to be set sometime in the '20s or '40s, and one memorable scene has Michael Keaton tossing his hat at a hatrack, and it goes
out the window. Can anyone identify the movie and what relation it has with Al?
