The camel sleeps tonight…

January 29th, 2005 2 comments

Remember how my booksforsoldiers guy very kindly sent my daughter a box of candy and a stuffed camel? Well, he wrote to ask what the camel sounds like. He said, “I would assume it might sound like a camel but I rarely hear anything out of the camels when they pass us in the desert. Pretty quiet actually.” So I finally put batteries in.

Ho. Lee. Crap.

Unless real camels burst into song when you push on their shoulders, this does not sound like a real camel. And the eyes… the eyes were very unexpected.

Shall I share a link? Yes, I think I shall.

Small camel movie
Big camel movie

Does anyone out there have any clue what this song is? I’ve plumbed resources all the way to an online buddy of my husband’s in Israel, and no luck.

I’m pretty sure that this is some kind of demon camel meant to hypnotize my daughter into joining the Taliban or something. Excuse me… I feel the need to go put on a burqa.

It’s a small game after all.

As usual, Bartlebee gets the best lines. 🙂

[Meriel] everytime I’m in this damn temple, I want to rip it down.
[GM in training] ROFL Alrighty then.
[Liadran] But it’s pritty!
[Meriel] it’s epcot
[GM in training] That was funny.
[Meriel] it IS… look at it sometime. Huge silvery-sphere. Epcot. All it needs are mickey mouse ears.
[Tvini] Heh. Let’s do it for April Fool’s.
[Liadran] AHAHAHA
[Liadran] Can we add piped in music?
[Meriel] fine with me.
[Meriel] 😉
[Meriel] and have “It’s a small world” playing in the background
[Liadran] Little mechanical dolls dancing across the walkways. Ooh and a moat!
[Tvini] We can put in an audio animatronic display illustrating the construction of the temple.
[GM in training] (GM) is going to have her “Disney sense’ start tingling and log in
[Tvini] An all-Gnome review singing “It’s a small world after all”
[Tvini] I wonder if I’d get in big trouble for LJing this.
[GM in training] Hah!
[Meriel] and a big space-mountain roller-coaster spiraling down the halls of the thirteen
[Tvini] Wooee! With free illustrations taken from Shadewatch mirrors that you can purchase at the end.
[Meriel] we could also have costumed monks dressed as your favorite avatar
[Tvini] “Noot’s Teahouse” with big whirling teacups.
[Meriel] a Hoiderna avatar… a Truffeni avatar… we had an Idon avatar, but he was arrested for groping the female postulants.
[Tvini] Hahahaaaa!
[GM in training] Okay, yall have a sickness and need help. 😛
[Bartlebee] o/] It’s a world of graves and a world of fears, a world of favors, a world of tears…
[Tvini] (Bartlebee’s) right, we need a Starry Road ride.
[Bartlebee] When you wake up you’re bare, but at least you’re all there, it’s a Temple after all!
[Meriel] make that the space mountain ride
[Liadran] Ooh and we can put a glass coffin with Snow White in the Resurrection creche
[Meriel] ::applauds (Bartlebee)::
[Tvini] Wooo, (Bartlebee)!
[Meriel] are we disturbing you, (GM in Training)? 🙂
[GM in training] Haha, not at all. I’m actually greatly amused. This is better than TV. 😉
[Liadran] I think you should LJ it (Tvini). Between this and the lingerie thing, how else would people know that GM Bartlebee is so talented since he hides back there in the shadows?
[GM in training] Back Channel should be deemed addictive by the FDA
[Tvini] You’re right. Bartlebee cannot hide his light under a bushel. We’ll pry him out from under there.
[Tvini] Besides. What would the Magic Kingdom be without (REDACTED)?
[Liadran] AHAHAH (Tvini)!
[Tvini] The one joke I can’t LJ. Well, at least you all appreciate it!
