Here is a roundup of some of our favorite strange Internet stories that have surfaced this past week.
Odd Amenities:
Travel search site Skyscaner asked hotel workers around the world to compile some of the strangest requests they’ve been given by guests. Some of those desires include chocolate milk baths, 15 daily cucumbers and the ever-so calming sound of clanking goat bells to help lull one guest to sleep.
Live Out Your Dreams:
Neuroscientists at Frankfurt University are inducing lucid dream states through the use of gamma waves. The technique helps patients have more control of their dreams and could help prevent panic and stress at night.

Wake n’ Snake:
You’ve had unwanted pests in your bathroom, but imagine waking up to a 12-foot snake. A Texas woman had the pleasure of playing host to the python before three animal control agents arrived to take care of the issue.
Three Sheeps to the Wind:
Throughout the history of mankind, there have been a great number of questionable experiments done in the name of science and Texas A&M University is adding to that list of strange studies by testing the effects of alcohol on pregnancy by intoxicating sheep with alcoholic injections.
