BF>> And they speek so funny.

 RN> Not the ones I told you about.

If I hear a Norwegian in Norway speek English I can say he's from Norway.
It's the same with the Danish and the FInns. And in my ear a Norwegian
sings when he speeks.

 BF>> And they make the best beer in the world.

 RN> Never cared for beer.  I don't know why.

Ohhhh, a cold Tuborg Julebrygd, That's the beer they make at Christmas (Jul).
It isn't Christmas without it.

 BF>> England said no to Euro and there will be a popular vote here in autumn
 BF>> so....

 RN> I hope your country will follow suit.

I'm not quite sure what's right. I think it would be the best if we did
join but we don't
need the Irish 300% increase.

 BF>> We have many German tourists here and they act like they own the whole
 BF>> world.

 RN> I know some Americans that are that way.  (-:

I know but I didn't want to be rude to you.
We call them parrots since they are coulorful and loud.

 RN> I suppose they forgot they were guests or maybe they thought the rules
 RN> didn't apply to them, for one reason or another.

In Germany they say: Die Dumme Schwede.

 BF>> I would prefer France but I can't speek French so therefor I go to
 BF>> Greece.  :-)

 RN> A beautiful language, but I still prefer the universal one.  (-:

I can say: "2 Mythos please" in Greece and Mythos is the Greek beer.

 RN> That's why we're there trying to set up a government for them so they can
 RN> rule themselves.  We don't want to be there any longer than we have to be.

That's what you and I ,the common people, hope but there are billions of $ involved
and what will happend when they start to act?

 BF>> And North Koreans to give up their atomic program.

 RN> That's where the Chinese government's cooperation will come in handy.
 RN> They don't want North Korea to have those weapons either.

But can USA and China work together after what happend?

  RN> I never heard that.  My best friend is Jewish and he has told me nothing
 RN> along those lines, but I will ask him.  It sounds more like a rumor to me.

It was a theory but we will never know the truth.

RN> As for the historians, well, they're entitled to their opinion, and people
 RN> can either agree or disagree with them.

That's true.

 RN> It's the same here, but we are tightening the gaps in our security after
 RN> 9-11.

Unfortunatly you can never tighten all gaps and if somone /really/ want to get
insid USA, well, then he will succed and then it's always somone who will help
him find the weapons, for money, that he need for his task.

 RN>>> It takes money and an organization to do that.  We, along with many
 RN>>> other countries, have stifled their supply of cash.

 BF>> Temporaraly.

 RN> That may be, but we will continue the hunt and ask for every nation's
 RN> cooperation along those lines.  The American public as a whole doesn't
 RN> quite understand the ramifications of what our government is doing, but in
 RN> the long run, everyone will come to believe that what we're doing is
 RN> proper, with the possible exception of the die-hard liberals.

Every normal human beeing understand this but there are always some that
doesn't and they always find a way to continue their fight.
We have here in Europe groups that are pro:s in demonstrate. Their job is to travel
around in Europe and fight the police wherever there is a EU-meating and they are
very well equiped and dangerous and the police don't laugh at them and what this
groups will/can do in the future no one knows and they are a powerful factor to count
with.

Do you btw. know where the word "hooligan" comes from?
I know.


 BF>> And there the French are forrunners. When something goes against the
 BF>> farmers they fill Paris with tractors and cow-dunge.

 RN> (-:  I didn't know that!

See, you don't know it all.  :-)
This have happend several times.

 BF>> WWII started as a war against the jews with the Krystal-night.

 RN> That's not what I thought.  I could be wrong, because I remember nothing
 RN> about Krystal-night.

It was that night between 9 - 10 nov. 1938 the jew-hate exploded in Germany on order
by propagandaminister Goebbels and all jewish shops and synagogues were closed
and many jews were start taken to concentration camps.
My wifes fathers sister are married to a German and he remember what happend during
this time but he never wants to talk about it.

 RN> I don't do that.  My friend in New Zealand is a Buddhist and you already
 RN> know my best friend is Jewish.  We never discuss religion and accept
 RN> one-another as we are.

That's the best way to keep a friendship but sometime it's nice to have a
conversation
about religion to. Someway it concern us all.
