I love my couch, in a completely platonic kind of way. If you were sitting on it, these are the kinds of things we may talk about. It would be better if you were actually here since I could make you a drink and put some tunes on - and that would be great, because I have impeccable taste in music - but, since you're not, this will have to do. So put on some good music, get comfortable, and enjoy.

That's just so... genevois I must say. Way oh why do hey resort to rap when they run out of ideas? They could've done something much more interesting, like... yodeling! Or not. Maybe if they used Julie Andrews again? hmm...
I must say it's useful though. I'd forgotten 118 was firemen. I think 1118 is information now. Or 111.
This is so catchy, in an unfortunate kind of way. Ugh. Must listen to U2 in quantities, quick!
I think I'm glad that I grew up in Western Canada and, therefore, have no grasp of the French language.
whoops hit the wrong button, I have not shortened my name to Ni
You and me both, sister!
I thought that "Ni" was going to be your code name for when you wanted to slag off people from other cultures. Was wishing I would have thought of something similar, actually.
Caro, if they were yodeling, it would have been in Swiss-German. So... let's just be thankful for what we have, hmmmmm?
Brilliant. Brilliant.
Just
It's
Just
Brilliant.
Isn't it? And doubly so, for my money, because the best bits aren't the ones they intended. You can't put a price on that.
Can I get the lyrics to that? ;-)
To think, I WAS in Western Canada when J&G told me about this...
Caro: 118 *is* "information"... in France. Zees veedeeo ees pour toi, mademoiselle. Otherwise, the fire dept might sing it for you, personally.
Darryl: Your comprehension of all this Swiss argot scores a point for your colleagues' insistence that you "comprend tout". You can't fool us anymore.
Darryl - our notebook has died, we think, so our e-mail is down. I wanted to read your blog but couldn't remember how to get you - use shortcuts on that computer... I typed yellow couch in the search, and you came up 2nd! Good job. I bet the businesses called yellow couch don't like it! I couldn't hear the video, but it looks "interesting." Seems like the audio add a new component to it... You make me proud!

I know! There's just no words to express just how good a fireman rapping while milking a cow really is.
Who's the dude in the crop top who pops up occasionally? Is he like some kind of comedy celebrity or is he the product of their own strange and beautiful imaginations?
The guy in the crop top? There are not a lot of places, my friend, that I am afraid to go, but that is one of them.
