Modern Vikings

We went to the city today (Sydney) to visit the Viking furniture warehouse. You know the place. Large warehouse, all the products have Nordic names.

I started thinking about the modern Vikings and their contributions to the world. Ikea, Linux, Nokia. They're pretty impressive warriors in the modern world just as they were in the past.

Do you know about being with somebody? Wanting to be? If I had the
whole universe, I'd give it to you, Janice. When I see you, I feel
like I'm hungry all over. Do you know how that feels?
