The beat is not arrested until to the breach of the dawn.

What happens when you run the Sugar Hill Gang's "Rapper's Delight" through babelfish into Italian and back again?

(Many thanks to boing boing just for being them)

My favorite is the "Sesame Street" theme, translated to Klingon and then back to English:

Day of the daytime star
The clouds are filled with dread and forced to flee...

Myself, I got a kick out of the String Cheese Incident reference at the end.

A friend of mine used to follow them everywhere and bootleg their shows, then create CDs for all of us, with actual honest-to-deity full color liners and everything. He spends more on color laser supplies than I do on my house payment.

He ended up joining their "organization" as "archivist". He no longer does that, and is now back in Houston.

Which means, to me, he wouldn't see the humor in the boingboing story, since his sense of humor is apparently gone.
