But who's going to account for it all?

I think decapitation is a relatively pleasant way to die, compared to some.

So...you were a berserker who lived in Africa? Weird, dude.

We can use the honey to feed the army, as well as fermenting some to make mead...

Oh... I thought you said "bookkeeper". :-)

Bees... uh... OK... we need one of those too. :-)

I'm fairly certain that some of my ancestors were "berserkers". It just explains some things, is all. :-)

They were Vikings, fer sure... but whether they were ordinary viking pillagers, or full-on berserkers... is merely a question of scale.

Well, plotting my return to power is tiring work... Have a good night, all!

Good night, Bear.

I'll study my mead-making book tonight in preparation for the coup. ;-)

Everything Scots or Irish is also Norwegian. And vice-versa. That's what the whole pillaging thing was all about.

The vikings came over, and ran off with all the best looking women. That's why it isn't called the U.K. Bikini Team. :-)

Heh...I note they left the haggis behind.

On the other hand, apparently the Scots did away with whatever lutefisk was dumped on 'em.

I'll try anything once.

Haven't had haggis...yet.

Lutefisk either, for that matter. I think Dad said they had it at gatherings when he was little, but it isn't exactly common in Vermont, and he never seemed eager to find any.

Apparently for good reason.

Haggis is revolting... even when you don't know what it is.

Lutefisk is *especially* revolting. Fortunately, there is no way to make it and have be a secret in the neighborhood. Like a Meth Lab...

Trini has sneaked some strange food on me before, but fortunately, most of it is really good!

*stretch*

I better get to bed. It's after 1:00 here.

Nighty night!

You Should Get a MD (Doctor of Medicine)
You're both compassionate and brilliant - a rare combination.
You were born to be a doctor.
What Advanced Degree Should You Get?

Maybe it's because I answer stoopid questions from doctors all day?
