... Vienna and we made sure we got back in time to attend. Everyone took a candle which came with a protective cup and we watched as a Bishop walked into the church with the procession. The mass was not a normal one, lasting two and a half hours. The pipe organ was used throughout and after about 45 minutes an orchestra filed quietly in. The choir sang in beautiful harmony and it made me appreciate the surroundings even though I was clinging onto my ...

... and Brits of course, but also Germans, crazy Danes, an Australian, a froggy and probably more nationalities. Besides, there was no set dress code. I liked this diversity. We were coming from different horizons but I must say the the Norwegians had a very warm welcoming attitude that set the tone. Despite the noticeable absence of alcohol (btw I vaguely remember ending ...

... be. The cult of celebrity is pretty new, and to think that I traveled around the world (not just for this event alone of course) to hear and see someone I admire and respect and have been impacted a lot by is quite bizzare and weird, and actually abhorrent in a certain way, but I am glad for having done it because theother fans I met and Lene herself were all great and it was wonderful shared experience to have had.

... of points given up and a lot of points scored. But any basketball fan who heard that score was very surprised and impressed -- Sandvika beats most teams by 30. These boys have just turned heads everywhere, but usually by the second quarter. They are taking on the best teams in this country, always out-sized and always out-shot from the perimeter. But there's a pattern -- the Scandos come out looking at this scraggly, skinny bunch and think this will ...

... meats and arranged vegetables and chicken and you name it, and we had a wonderful time and conversation with the lead members of Asker Basket. As Ola Thomas said in his welcome speech, exchange is about exchange and is a never-ending conversation. One day our visit to Asker will be followed by a visit to Port Townsend, and on it goes. It was a great night out with our generous hosts. I gave Ola Thomas the only 2XX Nighthawks shirt ever made ...

I have now been in Ås for a week and finished my first week of classes in Global Political Economy at UMB. The town and university are both quite small in comparison to what I am used to. Most things on campus and open at 10:00am and ...
