Just so some of you don't get my attitudes against the Bush regime and the way the Iraq war was started as anything else:

I appreciate that your Founding Fathers inspired our own Constitutional Fathers at Eidsvoll in 1814.

I appreciate that you with open arms received Norwegian emigrants who wanted to create better lives for themselves.

I appreciate that you were our allies against nazism and fascism during World War II, and contributed to democracy in Japan and Germany.

I appreciate that you contributed to re-build our country after World War II, through the Marshall plan.

I appreciate that you took the threat from Communism seriously and contributed to increased freedom and stability among our neighbours in the East.

I appreciate that you helped us discover and develop oil fields in the North Sea.

I appreciate all the marvellous American creations within painted art, literature, music and movies.

I appreciate all the amazing American innovations within science, technology, medicine and business.

I'm proud of the friendship between Norway and the USA, and I hereby wish to contribute to its strengthening.

The End

The measure of a man is in his humility.
And you sir are a giant

I second that, Bullet!

Even if that does count as a bite on Maslo's troll.
