Not to mention that he'll probably clamp on and not let go.

But you said you'd be the Olympic champion pengy pitcher! Giving flight to the flightless!

And I was hoping to be the International Commissioner!

OK, if the powers that be are paying attention:

Besides the dancing zucchini / dancing cucumber smiley, what I really need is a smiley with a flat spot in the middle of the forehead from all the times it's slapped itself. Call it 'doh'. Then one with hunched shoulders. Call it 'dunno'.


Powers that be paying attention? come on Zuke what world you living in? :rolleyes:

No, it's the Norse term for the world we live in, between Valhalla above and the serpent below -- Mitgaard means Middle Earth.

Gaaar!

I bloody knew that as well. If you were to ask me who Fenrir or what Yggdrasil is I could tell you in a heartbeat but I couldn't remember what that was ARRRGH!!!

Mythology is a one of my favorite subjects, especially norse, greek, roman and saxon.

How amazingly embarressing.

I was surprised you didn't jump on it -- I'm a little vague on Norse cosmology, actually. I know there's a 'Mitgaard Serpent' that lives below ground, but I'm not exactly sure what it's place in the mythology is.

Have you ever read 'The Book of the Dun Cow'? A truly strange and wonderful book.

are you sure about the midgard serpent? I've been wracking my brains trying to remember anything about it but it doesn't ring any bells with me.

No, not read the book of the dun cow. Anything to do with Ymir the first giant?

The serpent is a long snake type thing that devours the stars, it then curls up to go to sleep and a world forms around it, 'til it gets hungry again. Not too certain it's norse mythology tho'.


Afternoon all :kiss: :rose:

Well in norse mythology the world was created when Ymir was killed by Odin and his family, his blood drowned the majority oif the frost giants and formed rivers and his body was turned into the earth. As far as swallowing the stars go, the end of the world according to Norse Mythology is when Loki releases Fenrir the wolf and fenrir swallows the sun allowing the frost giants to re-awaken (its complicated, they're mountains when they're sleeping and they're easily as powerful as the gods, kind of like the greek titans)

Afternoon Plas :kiss: Like I said, I'm not too certain about where that myth comes from. Just something I remember reading somewhere.

hey I got a kiss! :)

Not sure where the myth comes from either. From the sound of it, it could be from one of the south american religions. That's just from the snake reference of course. It could also be a dragon in an oriental religion (not Shinto obviously)

Hmm..... might give that some thought. Mind you its pretty obscure.

*Chuckles* You can have one any time ;)

I've read some fairly obscure stuff in my time, more of an addiction I think, than a hobby or simple pleasure. :rolleyes:

You're asking me how something weird happened? Just because its my head and my thoughts, it doesn't mean I can make any more sense from it than you can. :D
