Our family will be moving back to Newfoundland next summer!

Ottawa's okay and all, but I'm really glad we'll be home, at least for a few more years. :) Can't have the youngster forgetting his lineage and all.

That's awesome DJ!  'Grats on being able to go home!

Witnessed a moped vs. stationary excavator trailer today. While that fact is not cheerful, the fact that the moped driver is (Or rather, will be) ok kind of is... It was quite a bang. The moped will at least need a new front wheel. The trailer survived unscathed

I suspect the rain, possibly mist on the helmet to be the likely causes of the crash.

Me, I dislike vacations - There's so little to do that I enjoy doing...

Asmo, you see a lot of crazy stuff on the roads (didn't you also almost get hit by a kitchen appliance?)

I know! I am starting to think that Norway is a dangerous place to drive.

There is no more crazy stuff on the roads here than in the rest of the country, it's just that I'm on the road often enough to witness some.

The thing with the moped was expected though, the way they put that trailer there. Mopeds are not known for having very good headlights and when it's dark and raining, seeing the road through the helmet can be difficult.

Not really, but the road here is narrow, with lots of turns and ups and downs, and some people drive too fast. Me seeing an occasional (near-)accident is, as stated, is more of a "if you sift through enough sand, you'll find a gold corn" than an indicator of general traffic safety.

I'm feeling jolly imagining a thread entitled "Let's git serious"
There's going to be t'ousands of posts and there's going to be proportionally as many of mine in there as Asmo has in this one.  ;) :) :D

Reason to be VERY cheerful: despite the crazy stuff on the roads, Norway has some of the most beautiful scenery EVER. Just spent the last 10 minutes looking through Google images and OMA  :o is it just gorgeous there.

Yes, Norway does look absolutely gorgeous.

Is it wrong that the picture of Norway, Sweden, and Finland together on a map remind me of (admittedly a bit deformed) male parts?

Yes of course it is wrong but in more ways than you imagine.
Finding the roots of your wrongness won't be easy or cheap.
Tell me Ali, when did you first envision yourself kicking Pudding?
