Once upon a time there was a very handsome camel named alfred. He had two huge camel humps on his back. He fell in love and married a beautiful female camel named marie who had one perfect hump on her back. As time passed they became the proud parents of a wonderful baby boy camel. But he was born with no humps on his back. The camel parents thought and thought about what to name their beautiful boy. Then it came to them. Well call him humphrey. That was ridiculous. Do you know how much brilliant acting it takes to make that work. Can you look at whats in my eye line. Bambino and blake playing cards. Looks like he put his paw in a socket.

Its called my new teacher and me we love having you back. We do. I dont think youre weird. I think youre adorable. Dont tell anybody. I wont. It will ruin your career. Its one of those books when you start reading it, you actually read it out loud. Thats what i found myself doing. Thats the idea. I really enjoy and appreciate actual rhymes, perfect rhymes. You were excellent through the whole thing. Ive been working. Ive been practicing. Theres a great message in this book. Tell us about it. Its a celebration of imagination. Its a story of a kid named billy. Its a first day of school. A back to school book. Hes got a powerful personality, speaks out for himself. His teacher mr. Booth is by the book, by the rules, authoritarian, doesnt have a sense of humor. Billys tall tales dont sit well with him. And he gets more and more angry. Were so used to seeing you do parodies. What one do you enjoy the most . We were watching a couple of clips and loved it. Hard to say. If i had to pick, i usually pick white and nerdy. Thats so autobiographical. I have a lot of experience on that one. What inspires you. Whats going on out there today. What song would you pick out of todays top ten . Wrecking ball . I dont think too many people want to see me naked on a wrecking ball. Ive taken a survey i had a dream about that. Oh, my goodness. It was wild, you were great. Ill have to rethink that then. Certain things just scream at you and say this is the one. Theres a lot out there that needed weird al treatment. They are really asking for it. What do the artists say when you pick one of their songs and do a parody on it. Its usually very complimentary. Lady gaga said it was a rite of passage for a weird al. You have the grammies, if youre lucky, you get a parody. First of all, everybody that knows you thinks youre a lovely, lovely person. Oh. You are. Thank you. I dont know. Its weird. Youve got a 10yearold daughter. I do. Does she take after you . In a way. Shes very artistic. I wouldnt say shes weird. Shes got some musical talent. She wrote a little song at home the other day and i produced it. She doesnt want anybody to hear, just family. She loves animals. Yes. Shes a big animal fan. Whats your dream for her . Do you have an image in your mind of where your daughter is going to be in ten years . I cant imagine. I wouldnt have known id be doing this 30 years ago. She has a lot of interests. Sort of like the theme behind my first book, you can be anything you want to be in life. You dont have to be narrowed into that. You can do a lot of things. We talked last week hoda, they have a new survey that says parents arent reading to their children anymore. Its really affecting them. You obviously had parents that read to you and great memories and kids love books and they love whats important in life. I have a love for childrens picture books. Apps are great. Electronic gadgetry is fine. Nothing beats a parent sitting with a kid and holding a book. The whole tactile bonding experience. Yeah, and the illustrations too on this book. I love this. Hargess. Hes wonderful. Did he do the other one as well . He did. The whimsy and humor. Attention to detail. Such a perfect match. Has your daughter read this . She was the proofreader. She corrected the syntax and grammar. Of course she did. She knows how to spell it right then. We wish you luck. Thanks for coming in, al.

Your career is on fire. In a real relationship as opposed to this phony one that we have, what would you do about that . Go to your friend and say, what the heck are you doing . Youre embarrassing me. The embarrassment comes because of the violation of the trust and the privacy. Yes, its a violation of the trust and the privacy. Get over it. Sue me. You go to your friend and say, hey, here is the deal. I really love where your coming from. I really love where your coming from. For future reference maybe not share that. For future reference, maybe not share this. You also have to just accept your friend for who she is. Thats true, hoda. So get over it. Sometimes parents embarrass their children. They say, look, i love you so much, i get the right to embarrass you. I wouldnt be your mother if i didnt embarrass you. Ive heard that a few times. Thats a problem. Yes, she is.
