    And here even the Norwegians are starting to have trouble. Kids these days can't say the kj/ky/ki-sound; they say it the same as skj/sj (sh). So now "Takk for kysset" (thanks for the kiss) comes out the same as "Takk for skysset" (thanks for the lift) ... which kinda puts a wet blanket over a budding relationship.
    Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

    Almost happened today along the Ohio River...I caught myself just in time before giving Silver a shower!

    WHy can't the kids pronounce the words they've heard all their lives?

    Isn't that kind of strange?
