What's on my mind...

Bits and pieces

Now in their 2nd year the kids are supposed to get "individualised" homework. Mathias' reading homework goes something like this:

[drawing of pig] How old can a pig be? A pig can be .. years. (no, it does state the number of years, I just can't remember..) Next page. [drawing of goose] How old can a goose be? A goose can be .. years. Next page. And so on and so forth.

Then, homework done, he continues to read The Hobbit...
*sigh*

Two days ago (16th) my blog was 2 years old! Poor thing, and already neglected...

And two days from now I'll be off to Edinburgh, which hopefully will lead to new updates - at least a few photo posts...

1968

Devil Mood did a great meme, and I feel so uninspired these days I'm letting her inspire me... The task is simple - type your year of birth and click google images, and voilà! A story to tell. Being born 1968 the difficult part is what not to post. I failed miserably on the leaving out bit...

The Norwegian king-to-be is finally allowed to wed his non-royal fiancée of 9 years. The bridal bouquet... The assassination of Martin Luther King jr.
"Pepsi-cola - the taste that turns you on!" Yeah, right...
And how gay is this? H & M advertisement


The assassination of Robert F. Kennedy

Local council somewhere in Norway. Just look at them...

The riots in Paris!
1968 Cadillac ...
Yeah, it was still the 60's... Jimi Hendrix ruled!

The Beatles released The White Album
The fun people had...
Elvis at his most attractive... This was the year for his "sitdown", dubbed the world's first Unplugged...
.. and not forgetting the Black Power sign by Olympic gold and bronze medalists Smith and Carlos
