I didn’t know there were any Vikings left except those up in Minnesooooda. These apology guys must be REALLY old.

Before you know it, the Macedonians will be apologizing to the Persians.

I’d like to say I’m sorry to Gordon for poking him with a safety pin in first grade.

An apology isn’t good enough. The Danes need to pay reparations.
To: blam
Well, I am sorry too. I did not eat any Methodists, but I am a Anabaptist so I have been tempted. And I have not pillaged anything in Ireland, but I would love to go there one day. So...anybody I offended. Ah shoot,forget about it.

What’s next, reparations?

Oh, just damn. Someone needs to smack the apologist with the flat side of a two-handed broadsword.

The Danish culture minister, Brian Mikkelson, who was in Dublin to participate in celebrations marking the arrival of a replica Norse longboat, apologised for the invasion and destruction inflicted Brian, Ireland had no towns worth raiding until the Vikings built Dublin!

A Message to Everyone on Earth:
I’m pretty sure that in the past 20,000 years some of my ancestors may have done something bad to someone else’s ancestors..... on the other hand, I’m also pretty sure that many other people’s ancestors did something bad to some of my ancestors, too.
WHATEVER HAPPENED WAY BACK WHEN, IT’S NOT MY FAULT!!!!!!!!

Maybe the Viking depredations were what caused the Irish to become heavy drinkers.

The Irish built lookout towers throughout Ireland to watch for Vikings on vacation.
