entertainment in small packages

zac was trying to watch a dvd but there was a lot of background noise cuz the dvd laser needed cleaning. he pulled out our $2 shop dvd player cleaner disc and poped it in. we've only used it once before on the dvd player and it must have only been for minute or so. this time zac left it playing and got distracted with wombat. all of a sudden there's pictures of rhinos in a zoo on the screen and the words to "happy birthday" are going across the bottom of the screen as a group of kids start singing along. i started cracking up. the song finished and we discovered that was the first of 11 tracks. my favourites are in the video above (the animals never seemed to match the song being sung). it was also very cute when they did this song with the lines "i am a girl and you are a boy....." (it ended with will you be my friend?). a lot of the songs sound like they are specifically children's songs used for learning english as a second language and its a group of asian kids singing them as they're learning english. the little girl who was singing the girl/boy song could not get her 'L"s out and it ended up sounding like "i am a girrr...." its cute.
that's my entertainment tonight (we wore the dog out and i didn't feel like going out with friends tonite)

That really is too bizzare for words.
