If you're tired of political ads interrupting your favorite shows on network TV or feeling uninspired by the next DVD in your Netflix queue, let me suggest an episode of the American Idol of Senegal... featuring sheep.

This YouTube video is 30 minutes long, and I know you wouldn't want to miss a moment of this incredibly popular TV show (really... its evidently a huge hit in Senegal), but if you just can't wait to see the winner, skip to about 32 minutes in.  Not that I know anything about sheep, but he's quite an impressive specimen.   I might have to tune in for next season.
