More news from the domestic front in Norway, the Nebraska of Europe; our stalwart allies in the War against Terror.

Incidentally, the phenomenon of a moose running amok through a children's clothing store somehow seems.....so Norwegian. It conjures up all sorts of images in the mind, of.....Norway.

"Ping" for the Norway ping list.

There will be no news of Norway this evening (Sunday evening), not because there is rarely news out of Norway on the weekends, but more so because I spent the whole night working on farm income (not my income) taxes, and at 8:30 a.m. (Nebraska time--2:30 p.m. Norway time) I am ready to hit the sack for eight hours.

Oddly, it is pouring rain right now here in Nebraska, the Norway of America, pouring rain very hard with temperatures in the 40s; it feels like April.

Frank:

I notice that the story made no mention of the musher being armed against the possibility of a moose attack. From what little I know of mushing in Alaska & Canada, it is not uncommon for a dog sled to carry a shotgun at the ready. Is this permissible in Norway?

Good story.

"two well grown moose calves stormed out of a forest and attacked a dog sled."That's odd.I wasn't aware moose were that agressive.
