And take your little llamas
We've opted to name our apartment Llama School, since we live on Las Palmas. Why Llama School, you ask? Perhaps these lyrics from the classic Sifl and Olly tune will explain things.
(Before the song starts, a bus driver runs into Sifl and Olly's studio, having hit his head and developed amnesia. He's got to get these llamas to school, you see, and Sifl and Olly give him directions in the form of a song, and during the course of the song you see the little puppet llamas in their little puppet llama school bus and God almighty Sifl and Olly is just endless joy.)
LLAMA SCHOOL
Yeah, I think.. I think you take, uh, Las Palmas
Take Las Palmas to Colorado
Take Colorado down to Pico
And that's how you GET TO LLAMA SCHOOL!
You go to Pico,
You take Pico to Colorado
Take Colorado to Las Palmas
And that's how you GET TO LLAMA SCHOOL!
Pico!
Take that to...
Colorado
Then go down to...
Kopico?
And that's how you GET TO LLAMA SCHOOL!
Now you say Pico
And take your little llamas
Colorado, Colorado!
Las Palmas... GET TO LLAMA SCHOOL!
Get to LLAMA SCHOOL!
You got to go to LLAMA SCHOOL!
Naturally, those directions don't make any sense. They are just random street names Liam Lynch picked out when he was in LA. This was a mild disappointment when I moved out here.

Where can I watch some Sifl and Olly?
There are a couple of their older, shorter bits on their website, but everything else (the two MTV seasons and the unaired season 3) can only be acquired by illegal internet means. But those illegal internet means are recommended.
