Reflections from a Swede in Norway.

Here you will find my small graffiti board where I write about things I come to think about.

In my blog, I write about the general unfairness of life, about spam mail, vintage computers, board games, Norwegians, current and not-so-current affairs, technology and whatever else occurs to me — in other words, a glorious mess. All opinion expressed here are of course my own, and all similarities with any living people is of course intentional.

Oxymoron

Published: Saturday 2006-08-05.

Here I pay for an expensive membership in a gym to get in a bit better shape, and what is the first thing I locate when I am to assemble a simple CD tower from IKEA?

Yes, of course it is the electric screwdriver. However, I quickly spotted the oxymoron and found my muscle-driven screwdriver instead. It feels a bit like I ended up in a situation like the one I saw in a photography from outside a gym in Los Angeles; it was situated on the top of a small hill — so they had fitted escalators to make sure you could get there without breaking a sweat…

Jeg har en dings fra Black & Decker som både skrur og borer, som jeg riktignok ønska meg først og fremst for borefunksjonaliteten, men den kommer godt med når skruene i BBB-reoler skal trekkes skikkelig til. De skruene sitter så knotete til at det er vanskelig å stramme dem ordentlig (det er dårlig med plass til henda inni der), og stramme må skruene være om hylla skal stå støtt.

Men ellers klarer jeg meg fint med en vanlig "muskeldrevet" skrutrekker, ja:)
