Quote Homer Simpson

Lisa: Mom, I want to honor Bleeding Gums’ memory but I don’t know where to start.
Marge: Maybe you could get the local jazz station to do a tribute to him, huh?
Homer: Jazz, pfft. They just make it up as they go along. I could do that: dee dee-dee dee dee dee dee, dee dee dee …
Marge: That’s “Mary Had a Little Lamb”.
Homer: OK, then, this: doo doo-doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo …
Marge: That’s the same thing; you just replaced “dee”s with “doo”s.
Homer: D’oh!

The Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline

I’m currently watching the program “Extreme Oil: The BTC Pipeline” Read more at http://www.pbs.org/wnet/extremeoil/journey/btc.html . You can also read about the pipeline at this webpage http://www.wsws.org/articles/2005/may2005/oil-m31.shtml . I found it very interesting! Oil and water will make wars, no doubt!

Renovation – New doors

Today we have had help from Per, the carpenter they used when renovating Elins home. The door bell rang at 06.50 A.M!! God damn that’s early to start working, especially since we sat up late last night watching Magnolia. Anyhow, the doors are now mounted, and I just needed to go to Maxbo seven times!!

Just started, one door mounted

It’s raining frogs

In the film Magnolia it rains frogs at the end of the movie. I had to search the Internet and find out why – here is an explanation http://www.usingenglish.com/forum/ask-teacher/6315-idiom-raining-frogs.html.

Elins opinion was that this was mentioned in the bible, so I had to do a new search. So from this site “The secrets of Magnolia” http://kempa.com/articles/mag82/ I found

Exodus 8:2 in the bible reads: “And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs.” Supposedly there are over 100 occurances of the numbers 8 and 2 within the movie, foreshadowing the coming ‘storm’. The ‘100 references figure comes from the following interview excerpt:

In Norwegian:

Fra Andre Mosebok 8.2:

Da sa Herren til Moses: «Gå til farao og si til ham: Så sier Herren: La mitt folk fare, så de kan tjene meg. 2 Nekter du å la dem fare, vil jeg plage hele landet med frosk.

Fant dette på http://www.bibelen.no, jaggu var de glade i frosk i Andre Mosebok gitt!!!
