Kamikaze snowflakes, Halloween and "silly English knnnniggets"

The snow finally arrived. I.e. sleet, i.e. kamikaze snowflakes. Doesn't really make sense, as there perhaps is a kamikaze element in all kinds of snowflakes, arguably also in rain, but I thought that compound was kinda cool.

Weird thoughts. Borderline absurd, even. But weird is cool. Weird is unique. Absurd is even better. Anyway... *shoves thoughts aside*

My brain is apparently taking a holiday at the moment. Nothing seems to be penetrating into my head. I guess this is the teflon-covered brain syndrome getting at me again... Grr. Bad timing. Then again, when it comes to this stuff it always is... :-S

Hm. What else to say... Oh yeah, it's Halloween. *unenthusiastic cheering from audience* I don't know about you, but Halloween in Norway is so overrated. It seems so strange when kids here in Norway do trick-or-treating; seems a bit fake in my view. After all, this is an American custom, that the media has managed to integrate (to some extent) into Norwegian society. "Knep eller knask"??? My ass. Sounds even more fake in my ears. Nah, "julebukk" is much better. At least that custom wasn't introduced by the media... But somehow I doubt kids think as far as this. After all, they get free candy. Either that, or get to throw eggs at houses. Which some kids did to us (i.e. family back home) a few years ago. Our excuse was that we didn't hear the doorbell (fyi, it sometimes doesn't sound properly). Ah well, what's two eggs? :-P Enough said on this topic.

Oooh! Oooh! Oooh! Stumbled over a really cute quote from my grammar book (of all things):

"May an anti-hygiene group declare your house a shrine!"

*giggle* Almost on the verge of being an insult, that.

Speaking of insults... (complete rambling, of course!):



Me? Do I like Monty Python? Gee, how can you tell...? :-P

And off we go...

Peaceful and harmonious vibes to the world,
