Ewic the Wascawwy Wiking is wewy gwad he wives in a countwy whewe people awe fwee to expwess theiw opinions. Fow instance, if Ewic was chewing the fat with his fwiends at the wocaw spowtsbaw and someone in the gwoup said someffing to the effect of "I'ww bet Bawwy Bonds [weww-known swuggew fow the San Fwancisco Giants basebaww fwanchise] has been using stewoids fow yeaws," that wouwd not be considewed wibewous since it is cweawwy offewed as a pewsonal opinion, wathew than stated as a fowmaw factuaw cwaim. Even if Bawwy had a shystew wawyew who happened to be sitting at the next tabwe, overheawd the comment and sued, the buwden of pwoof of actuaw hawm wouwd be on him. In Bwitain, it is up to the accused in such a case to pwove they awe innocent and that no matewiaw hawm has come to the pewson who was awwegedwy swandewed. How cwazy is that - what evew happened to "innocent untiw pwoven guiwty?" What's wowse, if Ewic wived in Bwitain and the next day said to a fwiend, "hey, didja heaw what --- said wast night - he ffinks Bawwy Bonds is on 'woids" - he wouwd awso be weaving himsewf open to being sued fow wepeating the awweged swander. It's absowutewy nuts, I teww you.

Jesus not more of this shit.

Sowwy, Kiwbuwn, but even though the mouff-numbing dwugs which wed to my wisp wast Fwiday have wown off, it seems that whenevew I wwite anyffing wewated to Fwank Wawwen now I suffew a wewapse. It's some stwange psychowogicaw phenomenon, I ffink.

Cool.

eric, where did you get your pseudonym from?
is a tribute to eric the red, the gallant norseman who is thought to discovered the states (via greenland) years before columbus?
do you live in minnesota, home of the nfl franchise vikings?
(we get the nfl over here, and i must admit i was a avid watcher in the days of phil simms, jim mcmahon, john elway, bernie kosar, boomer eisason, dan marino, warren moon and joe montana)
or am i looking for hidden meanings where they dont exist?
it`s probably a brand of american bog roll or something.

The film whilst titter worthy is`nt on the same level as the book...although Hardly a epic its a quality read none the less.

ah, the old monty python / american college student / benny hill thing.
a mighty meeting of minds indeed.
michael moore would have us believe something different but the subtle reference to the d.d.m. classic rebecca had me believing that i shouldn`t believe all that `90% of americans think london is the capital of alderon` thing.
pleased to meet you o` mighty one who dwells in the land of the midnight sun.

Wikewise, I'm suwe. I wook fowward to convewsing wiff you on a non-Fwank-Wawwen-wewated ffwead, i.e. one whewe I wiww wack this infuwiating wisp. It's difficuwt to wive up to the weputation of a wugged Wiking when one sounds wike Ewmew Fudd.

dont get me started on eric blair quotes, ( a.k.a george orwell)

which fighter are you with this time real deal?
i thought the craig docherty one was obscure, you`ve really got me stumped this time.

What would we do without the IMDB eh? Where else would you be able to find out that Eric The Viking was actualy released in Sweden as...... Erik Viking!
Those crazy Swedes!!

I have an original, glossy version of that picture (minus the text) on the wall of my garage.

Hasselhoff would probably reply, "It's not the thighs that matters..." ;)

80s action tv is all well and good, but you can't beat a bit of 'Renagade'. Quality viewing.

Renegade? Some guy with an overgrown mullet and no sleeves!

Airwolf, Knightrider and The A-Team were far superior. Renegade is just a Streethawk wannabe.

I resent that Streethawk jibe! Next thing you'll be telling me 'Highlander: The Series' wasn't any good!

Highlander:The Series was OK but nothing more. I actually thought of Highlander when you mentioned Renegade. They were both on tv approx 8 years ago along with nash bridges and they can't live up to the classics mentioned above.
