1. What, noone wants to say hello?
No, seriously though, have I been away that long? I used to have friends at DU. Hmm, what to do, what to do...register at Free Republic instead, perchance?

:spank: Just joking. :silly:

2. Good morning!
On this wonderfully sunny Friday afternoon. Oslo is bathed in sunshine and a smashing 25 degrees Celsius, I'm off to play table hockey and drink beer in the sunshine after work, and Brazil are playing Argentina in the Intercontinental Cup final on the telly tonight!

Good morning!

3. well I can' t really say good morning
for once I am in Germany and it is 1.45pm and the other thing is I am not a cowboy. Hmmmm ... what to do?

Oh and I won't watch the game. It will be enough this afternoon to see those fans downtown Frankfurt.

4. I can't really say good morning either...
being as I am in Norway, I'm just indulging the Americans, you know :)

You've got to love being in Germany though, it's one of my favourite countries.

5. I know
we can't leave those few Americans out in our threads :)

Germany is a good country to live. Even though your social system is better than ours.

I have to admit I haven't been to Scandinavia yet. I know it is beautiful.

6. Yup, it's nice here
Oslo city centre has just been renovated for the centennial celebrations (check my blog for reference) and looks adorable. Of course, now we have the annual tourist invasion and I have to run a slalom between tons of Japanese, American and German tourists on my way from the subway to work...

Try visiting the fjords in the west one time, they're insanely beautiful!

8. I know what you mean with the invasion
I lived for some years at the Lake Constance. Summer it was hell esp. driving. All those slow caravan drivers from the Netherlands drove me nuts. Esp. when I was in a hurry :eyes:

The fjords are definitely on the must-see-list.

12. all our caravans are German
Old, grey Germans, coming here in their caravans stocked with food and beer. They buy nothing here, dump their carbage and fecal matter here and go back home. Argh!

14. I apologize for them
that is horrible. I don't understand why Germans can't behave in other countries. It is just embarrasing.

15. That's just the old Germans, mind
The younger ones are nice. I have some friends in the Köln/Bonn area and in Hamburg, they're great fun.

7. I'm here, my friend, and I've missed you!
I hate cowboys, since anyone who claims to be one now is just a pretender. They only existed in the 1800's. But I'm so glad to see your thread, since it's been far too long. I was afraid that you'd abandoned us.

Good morning from cloudy, hot and humid NY!

Rhiannon:bounce:

10. Thank you, my friend! How kind! And you're one of the few qualified to
comment, since few on DU, except you, know what I actually look like.:D

I'd been thinking about you, since I knew that your darling baby turned one in April, so I expected a post, but, perhaps, I missed it.:shrug:

But I am so grateful to hear from you and to know that you're still with us!:hi:

11. Yes indeed I do
you seductive blonde you.

All is well, although I've been away from DU for about three or four months now - check my blog for a recent photo of Aksel!

13. LOL!
I would hardly characterize myself as such, but you're very kind.:D

And I have certainly missed you, but I will check for a new photo. I think that this is the cutest age of all.:-)

17. I checked out your blog, my friend, and saw the latest of Aksel.
He is as adorable as they come, chubby cheeks, blue eyes, and all, and I'm not one of those who fawns over babies. But he is at the cutest of ages and is just irresistible. You are very fortunate.:D:loveya:

20. He-he, yes, he's a great little lad
best of all, of course, he's nearly always happy. Although he's been having a period lately where he tries to cry his way into getting what he wants. It's just the age. Check the blog for more pictures at a later stage ;)

21. He looks like he's a happy little guy.
You can see it in his face, especially in his eyes. And every child goes through stages, but it sounds like you're handling it just fine. And I will check back for more pix. I had missed seeing him.:hi:

18. Good morning! It's all smiles here as...
...the start of the secondmost magic sports event in the world, the Tour de France, is imminent. Beaten only by the football World Cup I'm in gleeful anticipation of three weeks of watching the magnificent athletes grind their way up the Alps and the Pyrenees. Last night I inspiredly went for a long haul in my sexy racing bicycle and will notch up another 50 kilometres tonight.

Meanwhile, good morning to all and everyone! It's coming up to 3 pm here and the sun is shining!

22. Enjoy the race!

And I just read your opening statement. Very edifying, LOL! Especially the last: Site is influenced by strong disregard for American republicanism, so if you're one of them, please fuck off.:evilgrin:
