Lions

The moment of realisation
Gloriously inebriated at the Kuching Rainforest Music Festival. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" is blasting the right amount of cheesy reprieve from a night of 'global music'.

"Ee-e-e-um-um-a-weh
Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh
In the jungle, the mighty jungle,
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the quiet jungle
The lion sleeps tonight"

We were 'dancing' in a group, or more like stumbling around in drunken stupor, giggling like schoolgirls high on a crush. A revelation dawns, as pure as the starry night sky.

There are no lions in the jungle.

They live in wide open African plains, not lush tropical rainforests!

Friggin' hilarious. I probably peed in my pants.

I guess you had to be there.
