    Was this an economics lesson or something? Proof positive that education in California is totally down the drain. Forget Sutter's Mill! It's all about Weird Al!

    =YKtlK7sn0JQ&mode=related&search=</a>

    I loved the image for "Shatner's toupee" (Kirk holding a tribble), and the sniper kitten is adorable. But the Farrah Fawcett poster is just wrong.

    Then there's this one:
    <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKtlK7sn0JQ&mode=related&search=" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
    =YKtlK7sn0JQ&mode=related&search=</a>

    Good conceit to use images from only eBay. And the kevlar suit to illustrate the sniper is funny. A key chain, however, is NOT a tchotchke.

    This one:
    <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKtlK7sn0JQ&mode=related&search=" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
    =YKtlK7sn0JQ&mode=related&search=</a>

    ...is technically and graphically superior. But they obviously don't know what a real "Pet Rock" is.

    "Video by Connors:"
    <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6XBvS0aar4&mode=related&search=" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
    =W6XBvS0aar4&mode=related&search=</a>

    The creator of a version this minimalist should at least know the difference between an "ALF" and an "Elf" alarm clock...!

    Then there's this one:
    <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OX_t2Hg9PXs&mode=related&search=" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
    =OX_t2Hg9PXs&mode=related&search=</a>

    An "Alpha" alarm clock??? Illustrated by the letters of the alphabet? Then again, this is the creator's own verbatim description of his effort:
    "a kinda of video of the weird al song eBay but i have got half of the lirics wrong and when i saved the video somehow"

    "Asian Boys:"
    <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3x5K72UiXM&mode=related&search=" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
    =n3x5K72UiXM&mode=related&search=</a>

    Now I know how Simon Cowell feels. To their credit, it really is a couple of asian boys lip synching. Somehow I find the hand washing motif mildly disturbing. (BONUS: One minute of outtakes!)

    Lots more, but I'll leave you with this:
    <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scK9w4uhXqY&mode=related&search=" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
    =scK9w4uhXqY&mode=related&search=</a>

    A badly shot bootleg video of Weird Al himself performing the song at Ebay Live! in 2003 in Orlando...
