SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

The Song Challenge:   The Norwegian Moose And His Road Rage -- DATELINE:  OSLO, Norway -- Raymond Johansen isn't sure what to say on his insurance claim after a moose walked across his car and kicked in its windshield this weekend.  Johansen and his girlfriend, Kristen, were driving home when they stopped for a moose on the highway.  They thought they'd avoided a potentially deadly collision with the moose, which weighted about 400 kilograms (880 pounds); but, no such luck.  Johansen recalled shouting "this can't be" when the moose walked across the car's hood and one of its feet came crashing through the windshield.  Neither the couple nor the moose was injured.  He said the moose may have been enraged by the bright lights of the car.


In the Land of Ikea by Jack the Sailor
(Tune: Time of the Preacher by Willie Nelson -- I know Ikea is from Sweden, work with me here!)

In the land of Ikea, in the year or 0 1
A moose stomped a Volvo, and he did it for fun
In the land of the vikings, where the story is told
When a moose stomped a Volvo now we let it unfold

Raymond Johansen was driving along,
saw a moose in the headlights
and stopped for to long
The moose broke his windshield
which caused him to curse
And he just felt stupid
Cause he didn't reverse

In the land of Ikea, in the year of 01
If you see a moose there then you better run
