okay, weird - There's a song on the radio right now, "I am a Squid" as sung to Simon and Garfunkel's "I am a Rock"

I think it's performed by Tom "T-Bone" Stankus (of "Existential Blues" fame)

This should be cross posted on Cute Overload!

Okay - it was some guy named "Paul Anderson" who did "I am a Squid" ala S&G.
