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

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!
Thin Lizzy – Whiskey in the Jar
It’s been a while since I bought this album, just haven’t found the time to publish it here. Bought it when driving to Sunnmøre this easter. Thin Lizzy is still playing, just see http://www.thinlizzylive.com, but if you ask for my opinion Thin Lizzy is Phil Lynnot, and since he is dead, Thin Lizzy is best to be remembered for their old hits. Their story can be found here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_Lizzy
The most fattening coctails

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

Banger Racing at Eksismoa
Today, or more correct – yesterday, Espen, Elin and me went to Eksismoa http://www.eksismoa.no, despite Anders Glende lack of acceptance, to watch banger racing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banger_racing. We had a lot of luck, it rained cats and dogs right until ten minutes before we arrived, after that it was no rain and a bit of sun. We also meet Bunæs there, and joined him and his friend. Elin loved it!!

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!!!
