Friday night is tell me your story night

[Stephenite]

I've moved to Norway. Fifteen years ago I moved. I could have moved anywhere. Or could I? Maybe, it was pre-ordained. Since i was a kid i liked the stories of the norwegian adventurers (Amundsen, Heyerdahl, and co.). I was amazed by fjords and glaciers. Appreciate clean air/water and liberal socialism. I was living in a squat, after coming out the army early, at 19 y.old and found a 'Teach yourself norwegian' book. I was moving in this direction for a long time. Here is A-ha and Take on me hehe

I'm trying to keep the tone within the confines of a family friendly forum. Doable. She's always going to be doable that one.

Much as I would like to post "grendel" by Marillion, "2112" by Rush or "Rime of the ancient mariner" by Iron Maiden I suspect people have only so much time to listen to these tracks. As it happens, a lot of "golden era" Maiden tracks are story type tracks so here's a somewhat shorter sample.
