He proceeded to wipe up the floor with my face and we both got fired immediatly after being pulled apart. That actually got me a job on a research boat for the University of Washington, which sailed among many places to Tahiti, where I met this girl who happened to be Norwegian, and well, one thing led to another you see. Norway was "home" from the first second I saw the place. Sailing in on the Oslo Fjord on the car ferry from Newcastle, waiting for my sweety to spot me as we pulled into dockside... all very touching and romantic... could probably make a good movie out of it I suppose. -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
