See him fly.

There's nothing like country music to make you believe that life could be simple again.
So this morning, I was delighted to receive a YouTube video of a band called Gunnar and the Grizzly Boys.
It was headlined: "Redneck Country Band Ambushes Google Street View Car!"
I knew this couldn't possibly be true. I feel sure that Google's Street View drivers, who have to sometimes master rough areas and rocky terrain, must be armed.
Still, the video gave some sort of impersonation of a Street View image populated by, well, this redneck country band and their -- presumably -- equally redneck friends.
The most obvious reaction is that this can't possibly have been made with the complicity of Google, as the faces of the protagonists aren't blurred.
Yet surely the blurring happens after the shooting.
The notes to the video insist: "To protect our friends at Google who bent the rules to make this video possible (and their jobs), we can't disclose when and where this was filmed."
