    greetings frm Norway

    WHat does it mean when The Weather Channel says low 40, high 48, currently 36?(yes, that's Farenheit)

    OTOH, I love the heated tile/stone bathroom floor and the heated towel rack.

    Not much on the TV, CNN keeps repeating and most other stuff talks in Norwegian.

    Daughter chatting on line suggests watching network shows on-line - good idea (NOT).

    ABC and FOX all detect a foreign IP and won't show shows outside the USA.

    So I figure its midnight at the office and I'll use the corporate VPN to fool the networks into thinking I'm calling from the USA. Bad idea, BUSTED my VPN uses websense and it tells me internet TV and Video is filtered.

    what am I doing up at 6 AM? Can't sleep. I think my body clock is now officially confused.
    I think the continental breakfast buffet is now open. Bye.

      Heck, my body clock gets confused when I walk next door... And I keep hitting the "snooze" button...

          Some of these links that you guys post cause me the same problems! Enjoy your travels!

                  During a typical year, that could mean you're in NW Indiana. Enjoy your time away.

                      Maybe a good time to become addicted to online gambling? Poker perhaps?

                          In Minnesota, that means it's warm enough to wear shorts.

                              In North Carolina that means people think it is the Ice Age.

                                  In the late 60's I flew out of Minneapolis at night on military flight (cargo plane), no heat, it was 15 below zero (F) on the ground. I've never been that cold in my life. Don't remember much of the trip except for thawing out once we landed.
