Damn herring shuckers.

I’ve made it a point to be racist against somebody and they’re the lucky winners.

“Olaf was a warrior king who was called Olaf the White. He was the son of King Ingjaldshaugur Helgason, Olafsson, Guðröðarsonar, Hálfdánarson Whitebone Upland king.”

Me, I like the stories of Hrolf Kraki better.

My first gen Sweede/American dad used to talk about two strong men called (sounds like) Gustav Acoola and another one called (again sounds like) Boosinee Beck.

Anyone else ever hear of these guys? Never been able to find any other source besides dad and I don’t think he made it up.

No, no, no.

You’re thinking of Danny Bonaduce.

Leif Erikson was that teen idol in the 70’s who grew up, lost all of his hair, and tried to kill himself with drugs.

Wait...maybe that was David Cassidy.

Dammit, I always get my 70’s teen heart throbs mixed up.
