I have learned something, sheep are surprisingly hard to count.

I have learned something else, they are remarkably easy to herd.

Now everyone sing along with me…

The stars at night, Are big and bright, Deep in the heart of Texas, The prairie sky Is wide and high, Deep in the heart of Texas. The sage in bloom Is like perfume, Deep in the heart of Texas, Reminds me of, The one I love, Deep in the heart of Texas.

The coyotes wail, Along the trail, Deep in the heart of Texas, The rabbits rush, Around the brush, Deep in the heart of Texas. The cowboys cry, “Ki-yip-pee-yi,” Deep in the heart of Texas, The dogies bawl, And bawl and bawl, Deep in the heart of Texas.

For those of you that remember Mahir, the Turkish stud, one of my study groupmates has pointed me towards another visionary in the same vein.

It would be easy to dismiss Günther and his quest to "sexualize the world" as childish teen-fantasy drivel, but to do so would be to overlook the true brilliance that is Günther.

I urge you to check out his videos immediately… the classic is the Ding Dong Song but Tutti Frutti Summerlove is creeping up as my personal favorite (there is nothing more than a strong PG-13 rating there, but probably still not the best thing to pull up at work ;).

The gratuitous use of white boy-shorts and creative use of fruit (bananas and melons of course) juxtaposed against insightful lyrics such as “honey, you’re so cute, this is the land of bitter fruit. Bananas, melones, yeah!” showcase the true brilliance of Günther. And really, most importantly, how can you resist the sexual dynamo that is *Günther*!

Go to Gunthernet.com and click on "Video" to find out why, when you thought Sweden could do no more damage to the world music scene than Ace of Base, you were horribly horribly wrong…

Another forward from Abizer, This is freaking brilliant!!

…and a little bit surreal – Chuck Norris’ response.

Even now, weeks after it was forwarded to me, this continues to crack me up. Even though this is a fake news story from the "BBC" I still can’t resist posting this link: Lion Mutilates 42 Midgets in Cambodian Ring-Fight (local copy).

Secondly, in the freaky device department (local copy), apparently brain-suckers are now available on the market for the low low price of $59.95. Ok, maybe not brain-suckers but vacuum powered haircut "system"… look at it! Who the hell would buy this thing???

Yesterday I saw the band that sings the theme song for the TV show The OC perform… you *know* you are jealous!

These guys reminded us of their name *repeatedly* throughout their show. Phantom Planet, that’s their name, that name again is Phantom Planet.
