Drunkathon 2004!

Hey monk, a quick question. Whatever happend to the lovely femme fatale you used to have as your avatar? Or maybe it's just my brower that hides her from moi?

It's the wise and respectable Krop! What's up lately?

With regards to the adorable Tarja Halonen - those were the days, but I removed her because the two of us seemed to have grown apart in all those years (edit: well, months. But you get the point). I'll have to dig up a new avatar one of these days. Initially I wanted to use a picture of Stefu, you know, to stay with the theme, but he just doesn't respond to my viciousness like back in the old days. I'm sure you as an old-timer will agree nothing is as good as it was. Even nostalgia isn't what it used to be

Speaking of Finns, does anybody know the main difference between a Finnish wedding ceremony and a Finnish funeral? At the funeral, there's one person present who's not drinking vodka.

Why the **** do they include a word like 'Saturnalier' when don't include everyday words like 'Kodd'. It's an outrage!

Because Bellman had Saturnalier but never went to Gothenburgh to learn what a Kodd is.

What's up? Well, what do you expect? I'm an unemployed ****er living of my girlfriends student loans (well, it's more like she's living of my money...).

It doesn't seem like kodd is included in any of Bellman's hits but the same also seems to hold for saturnalier. At least with that spelling....

I must confess that while 'saturnalier' do feature in my vocabulary, 'kodd' does not, despite living on Västkusten as a kid. Enlighten an expat?

[Chemical Ollie]

I can't recall Jävlar Anamma included kodd in their hits either. But their music fit when you have saturnalier.

However, I recall changing the lyrics of Brännö Brygga valz to "där seglar Kålle me kodden på svaj"

Although not an expert on the regional existance of the word kodd, I've mostly heard in in the Halmstad-region. A typical example of this would be the lyrics from a Peter Wahlbeck-song (one of his few good works imho);

"Det var en kall kväll i Halmstad.

Jag hade fått ett tips utav en polis, som jobbade i Falkenberg.

Han skulle själv ner till hamnen i Halmstad för att det var en fest på en båt.

Jag tog en taxi ner, bakom Rolles där låg det en orange båt. Jag hörde musik innanför, så jag gick ombord.De hade byggt upp en bar, kan man säga, nån form av cockpit, båtens cockpit. Jag tog en öl och jag tog en öl till. Jag snackade med lite folk som jag kände från Halmstad. Det var en del falkenbergare med. Bland annat var det ett dansband från Svenljunga. Hildings hette dom. Bakom basistens bas glänste nåt i velourbyxan. Det var basistens kodd. Herregud, vilken kodd! tänkte jag. Så fet, men ändå så kort. Ok, den ska bli min. Hallå grabbar, jag heter Owe. Jag bor här i Halmstad. Ska ni hänga med på efterfest? Vill ni ha en sup? Var har du lärt dig att spela bas? Jaha. Jaha. Ok, vi ses sen. Dom spelade så fint och jag tog en svängom med en tjej. Jag spanade in kodden, så att säga. Herregud, vilken kodd! Jag kunde se den framför mig i min våningssäng. Efteråt så packade de ner sina instrument. Jag hjälpte till, jag bar och jag lyfte och jag var så slirig och go. Yr och fin var jag när jag öppnade dörren och bjöd in Hildings. Basisten tog en dusch på min toalett. Nu satte jag in stöten. Jag tog han på kodden när han med handduken torkade sig. Jag fick en smäll. Jag tog honom på kodden igen. Jag fick en smäll till. Jag försökte ta honom på kodden en tredje gång. Då fick jag en sån jävla smäll. Det är skönt att få stryk. Bögstryk. "

Peter Wahlbeck is awsome!

I've seen him live a few times. The first time he said that whenever he heard the word "gay", a 2.10-meter (7-feet) macho-african came to his mind. Not some feminine man.

And then of cource, there's the song about the trip to Ullared. But other than that I'm not a fan. I don't know if the fact that the only time I meet him, he compared me to some old danish porn star...

[Chemical Ollie]

Bränn ner Ullared. Bränn ner det.

I wonder if Pekka has lured the girls into the sauna yet?

[Kropotkin]

It would be about time. But I would bet my money on him being out of the game by now.

When you're that freaked about something involvning alcohol it's bound to end with a rendezvous with Ulrik.
