You Scandinavians invaded my home land, like 1500 (+-500) years ago, and kept coming back for more. You should be ashamed of yourselves. :-D When I saw this,I can't help laughing. this is my signature for forums quoted from shog*9: I can't help but feel, somewhere deep within that withered, bitter, scheming person, there is a small child, frightened, looking a way out.
Being invaded by them might not be so bad if the attack was led by that Swedish Bikini Team!:-D Word of the day: Rotundacrat

When I associate the word Viking with modern Scandinavians my only thought is "what the hell happened to those guys???? They used to be so cool!!!!" I'm not a real reverend, I just play one on CP.

You are the intrepid one, always willing to leap into the fray! A serious character flaw, I might add, but entertaining. Said by Roger Wright about me.

Vikings invaded my birthland too, in 9th and 10th centuries. The main difference is they stayed there, on lands "given" by the French King, and founded Normandy ("land of people from the North"). So I may have some Vikings ancesters somewhere in the genealogic tree :) So I came to find To end up this way Feeling like I'm God Feeling there's no way KoRn

Interesting! I didn't know this. I think I'll check the "history books" on this one. -- Giles wrote: You Scandinavians invaded my home land, like 1500 (+-500) years ago, and kept coming back for more.

Search about the treaty of Saint-Clair-sur-Epte between the King of France Charles and the Viking Chief Rollon (or Rollo or Hrôlf), signed in 911. So I came to find To end up this way Feeling like I'm God Feeling there's no way KoRn

Jörgen Sigvardsson wrote: Are we nordic people still viewed upon as savages? I never viewed Vikings as savages... more as brave, cunning race. The city I'm living in was "founded" by the vikings... lots and lots of viking ruins around the city. Have a look at my profile. There is a link to Waterford City there. Regards, Brian Dela :-)
