<CARNAC>BOLOGNA, JANEANE GAROFALO AND SCROTUM</CARNAC>: Is it possible that we let four days pass without mentioning the untimely passing of Doug Fieger, better know as the lead singer of the Knack? To make up for this gross oversight in our usual chronicling of pop culture departures, here's a look at some great "My Sharona" moments in pop culture from Weird Al (natch), the gang from Reality Bites, Filipino prisoners, Jimbo Jones, and Cheech Marin. Plus, Us catches up with Fieger's "little pretty one, Sharona Alperin.

    My oldest son was in preschool with Sharona Alperin's son, so we got to see a lot of her.  Beyond that, no comment, and read into that what you will.

    I am under no such obligation. She uses http://mysharona.com/ to flog her real estate business. Tacky.

    Meh, she was name checked in the song and uses it to promote her business.  Seems fine to me.

    My oldest son was also in preschool with Sharona Alperin's son, and also a mommy and me class for 2 years, and she's perfectly nice.  Doesn't disclose the m-m-m-my sharona thing unless you ask about it, and that's more than I can say for what I would do if someone had written a song called My Spacewoman.

    The inside of hogs, star of Cats and Dogs, and makes polywogs?

    Smells rank, left flank, sperm bank?

    Stick of meat masses, chick with glasses, thing 'twixt dicks and asses?

    One of the performers at the open mic I mix on Monday nights is his niece, so we had a moment of silence for him this past Monday.

    You have a short memory.  At home, I will remind you.
