To put the words into the mouth of the silent majority...
In one of their songs, the Norwegian (mock-political) metal band Black Debbath declared itself the voice of those who don`t really have anything to say ("Et talerør for de som intet har å si"). That is also essentially the way that I feel about blogs - they are pretty much a device for people to express themselves without really having anything much to say. And with me writing this blog it is going to be the same way, just a string of random, meaningless thoughts, mostly about Norway. Having moved abroad, maybe it`s a nice way to keep involved.. Or something...

Come on man, don't be so hard on yourself. I find your ramblings to be not only interesting but very observant, incisive, intelligent, honest, and far removed from nationalistic bend, unlike other Norwegians. I am impressed. The fact that the welfare state is a bizarre experiment on social equality and that somehow it exists only in Norway gives you something to thing about.
