Just reading this gives an old man a chubby.
Behold the power of cheese.
Well, it appears the Norwegians had better eat more of that cheese, so as to increase the birth-rate.
There are not many Moslems in Norway--a minuscule number as compared with Sweden and Denmark--but their own birthrate is significantly higher.
And so it seems to me the Norwegians should forget about investing in "things," and invest in large families instead.
Please add my to your ping list, thank you.
Excellent culinary advice. = )

Who cut the cheese? Thor cut the cheese!
Any who, outside of an erection, I thought the writer was describing old unwashed sweat socks, which sometimes languish at the bottom of laundry hampers across America.
My friend, you just gave away a multi-million dollar idea away for nothing to Kraft foods.
"Hey Lars, is that gamalost in your pocket or are you happy to see me?"
Yes, in a few years all across America police forces will be using cheese wiz gamalost with a win-win result:
Stage #1- This crap will neutralize any crowd.
Stage #2-They will walk away happy.
Gives the term Cheese-head a whole nother connotation..
I love gjetost myself. I can find it once in a while. My kids always called it peanut butter cheese because it was brown. MMMMMM. Brings back many memories. Now lutefisk...never could quite abide that one. Fiskeboller, yes, lutefisk, no.
Mornin'. Thanks for the ping, and the post.
You're on the now-famous Norway ping list.
Because Norway is such a small country--less people in all of Norway, than in the capital cities of most countries in Europe--not much happens there, but when it happens, it's all good.
You know, I'm trying to figure out this Norwegian architecture.
I looked at a bunch of photographs of houses in Norway, and at some promotions for some famous restaurant in Oslo, and there's really something wrong with the architecture up there.
Too much wall, too few window, if window at all.
Yeah, sure, it probably gets cold in Norway and all that, but man, living in a hole could drive one to drink.
The unrelenting winter winds of Nebraska are cold too, but I would feel as if a gopher in a hole, not living without great big huge enormous spacious windows on all four sides of this house; almost as much window as wall here.
True, it drives up the heating bill, all these large windows, and on all four sides, but being able to look upon the great big wide world outside boosts the morale and shines up the outlook.
I'm solar powered. Sunshine gets me going. I don't do well when it's overcast here on the CA coast. I don't mean just cloudy, I mean low gray sky, like an ugly ceiling.
I haven't checked out the architecture much, but remember the bright colors used as accents. Color can also help to pick you right up.
Hope you are OK. They say that Spring is just around the corner. Can't wait.
Please FREEPMAIL me if you want on, off, or alter the "Gods, Graves, Glyphs" PING list --
Archaeology/Anthropology/Ancient Cultures/Artifacts/Antiquities, etc.
The GGG Digest -- Gods, Graves, Glyphs (alpha order)
It's odd, I don't have any (acknowleged) Norwegian blood in me, though there IS Baverian, English, Cornish, & Welsh, so who knows...
Anyway, for me, the fewer windows, the better I like it.
Might have to do with spending over 20 years on night shifts, and preferring night classes, but still...
Rotted the moral fiber out of the French? Or was that the Limburger?
