Wow, you know how to spell something?!?  Color me amazed.  

What color is that?   ;)
How is it that I can beat the Sa-Matra with one Fury, but I can't beat a Marauder with an Avatar?

I should have seen it coming that you would change color from the American spelling to the South African spelling?

My my my, what do we have here? People turning my welcome thread into a discussion about colors and colours and coleurs.
Why, you must have been drinking much Liquor. Or maybe you were drinking Liqeurs? Yes, you were probably drinking Aquavit, Norway's native scented Liqeur.

If you are Norwegian then I am a happy man. I love Aquavit and I like Norwegians. Your country may be insanely expensive, but the people are nice and those mountains are seriously something.

Damn, this reminds me that I still owe Bleeding Star some pictures from my Norwegian vacation. I hope he doesn't read this.

Colour me amazed at the spelling debate. *Snicker*

Just because this is worth it, I'll hit you for one point.

I was in Oslo last thursday and friday and apart from the alcohol prices I didn't really find it insanely expensive, really. Might have something to do with the Euro-NOK conversion rates of past week, but I dunno?
What would you give to know the truth?

Really? I was there 1½ years ago and the gasoline prices were insane compared even to Finland. The food and drinks were about the same level as in Finland, but Finland is expensive compared to most central European countries. Maybe things have changed? Or maybe you're just rich?

I didn't use a car while I was there, but the rest of the things (food etc) were just as cheap as in the netherlands.

Coincidentally, as I was trawling through some old threads swearing bloody vengeance on people who don't reply to my posts, I noticed the same thing.

According to statistics, Finland is the third most expensive country in Europe and Norway is more expensive. Are you sure the NOK didn't just trick you?

Also, according to this your foodstuffs are at around 78% to 105% of the EU27 average whereas Norways is at 158% - 229%. I dunno, maybe you live in a very fancy area back home?

Eh, I'm working on it?

EDIT: There you go.
