All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

What? No Stray Cat Strut ?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Have there been corresponding thefts of Klimt paintings?

Those Viennese have MUCH better security. t /no sense of humor.

I was telling a Norwegian friend about the new thefts and she became very concerned, saying, "another one?! people must be making fun of us!"

Just got an email from her:

The problem is that we're not used to people who take stuff that isn't theirs… I guess that's why we don't protect it with alarms etc. It's kind of sad actually.

This is the same country that recently allowed a man to smuggle an ax onto a plane in his carry-on, which he then used to attack the pilot, no?

Laughing, check.

Not worth saying twice. Or even once.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Some of us actually don't want hamsters do die of heart attacks....

I think that I've mentioned here before the Norwegian art museums I've visited that are not only unattended, but which ask visitors to make change for their own admission fee from a cash box filled with the money from previous visitors.

It was a nice country while it lasted.

Yeah, until it was overrun by zombie Ibsen clones....

I think it makes Norway seem ADORABLE.

I seem to remember being able to see The Scream from the front door of the museum.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Norway: Nicer Than You.

Only in Kenya...
