    Oh no, we thought it was fantastically hysterical. The humor is a little dry and subtle for the typical American who's into a steady diet of Hollywood humor like The Hangover and Bridesmaids** (barf, drinking, penises, diarrhea...) We thought it was outrageously funny. Even DH who doesn't love subtitles, is telling all his friends to watch it.

    **Terrible movies. I'm embarrassed that these things are "our"contribution to the world culture of humor. Re Bridesmaids, I'll never get those two hours back.

    Lovely trolls!

    I must put The Troll Hunter on my list of movies to watch. I wonder if it's on Amazon streaming...

    The trolls are sweet. Why are you dropping the studded tires?

    Not dropping the studs, upgrading the studs. My commute is over an hour one way. Nothing wrong with the Kendas, but the Marathon Winter are a more bullet proof studded tire. When the temps drop to below freezing, I want that little bit of more reliability.

    Very cool!

    But, if I named a bike "Detritus," I can't imagine I'd ever be able to bring myself to wash it...
