Skiing

Sommer’n er til for å vente på vintern! Qoute: Steinar Ringdal

I have just watched a program on tv about the history of modern skiing. It is with great respect I realize the value of what Sondre Norheim and the Hemmestveit brothers did about 120 years ago. Without them, skiing as we know it might not have been what it is.

I found this video on Youtube from Morgedal. If you press read more there is another movie clip, just 18 seconds of Seth Morrison doing a backflip when in Lyngen. That guy is amazing!

At Sola airport

At Sola waiting for the plane back home. My computer has just had a near death experience. When logging off at Stavanger I initiated the “Shut down computer”-process, and then unplugged the power supply. For some reason my computer goes in to a dead lock once and then when I do that, but this time I did not notice and just packed my laptop in my bag. When at the airport I noticed that the temperature was extremely high on the outside of the protection when I packed away my comic book. When using the “Swede button” and trying to restart nothing happened. I waited until I had passed the security check and then plugged in the power supply, luckily it is back running again.

There is also an annoying German guy here, speaking English in his cell phone so that almost everyone at the whole airport can take part in his conversation. Jezzes, why not just go outside and shout, saving the money for the use of his phone!
