But wait there's more: Ron's sister, Lisa, sang backup vocals on that song. She's actually sang backup for Weird Al on multiple occasions over the years.

Of course, I guess it's possible that I have if it's really good, and I just didn't know it.

The dude saw opportunity in the selling climate of his time and he ran with it. His legacy is probably neither lasting nor important, but he accomplished something uniquely American.

I kept the pocket fisherman in my work truck loved it.

I had the Showtime Rotisserie it was ok but a big roasting hen all tied up barely fit and would burn on outside before the internal temp inside was ready. Not to mention was a big pain to clean. The BBQ with a rotisserie is the only way.

Same, but kind of reverse.

The pocket fisherman I thought sucked. I still use the rotisserie about once a year for a chicken. Just watching it is awesome. May do a small prime on it this winter. But yeah, cleanup sucks.
