In Swedish we say: "när man talar om trollen, så står de i farstun" -
when your speaking of trolls, they're waiting at the entrance. And as
everybody knows - trolls are tough as the devil, but they turn into
stone when the sun shines on them. The connection is clear as mud,
right?
Oh, hi Vulcan!

Sweden and Norway has never been the same country. We've had the same
king occasionally, but never the same government. The last time around,
it lasted for less than 100 years, and that was 100 years ago at that.
In addition, Norway has had common kings with Denmark a lot more than
with Sweden.

Hmm..., how weird. LVD (or other Swedish Dragon), is this how it appears
in your textbook?

I don't understand that. You guys are cryptic. I use ceramic tea pot to
brew my teas, so does that have to do with it?
Why do people like to make this kind of joke to me? >:-/ The other day, I
asked a coworker what's in Halo Halo (a Philipino drink), and he said
beans, palm seeds and a nasty white stuff called jiz.... When I asked
what's white jiz, they told me it's high in protein and it's mixed with
egg.
