Maybe Mike could toss out a German phrase for the next competition! hahahha!
Or maybe get one of the BlahBlah Swedes to record a tongue-twister my mother used to recite -
"Seven seasick sailors are taken care of by seven beautiful nurses on a sinking ship"
in Swedish:
"Sju sjösjuka sjömän sköts av sju sköna sjuksköterskor på ett sjunkande skepp."
Our mom spoke the Swedish dialect that pronounces the "sj" as "wh". Another dialect uses a "sh" sound. The "wh" is funnier to listen to - it sounds like whistling - but that's just my opinion, lol.

What is a traditional German "tongue-twister", Mike?
(Probably the one that's most well-known in America is:
"Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers")

haha, lolson - an MP3 of it would be funny!
Min mor would say the "wh" . But when I took Swedish language class back in high-school, the teacher would say it with the "sh" instead. Min mor told me that the teacher had it wrong and must be Norsk or something, hahaha!
So at home I learned to say 7 as "whoo" and at school I learned to say "shoe", lol.
