What's New In W. Africa (Nigeria)

[graculus]

The Vikings are coming, the Vikings are coming ....

... In the lands of the North, where the Black Rocks stand guard against the cold sea, in the dark night that is very long the Men of the Northlands sit by their great log fires and they tell a tale...

... a blasted heath, home to the Cavers Tomb....

... Hrothgar ... we have flown our great clockwork flying boats (the B1 version with wings of leather, not your B version with feathered wings). The clockwork wound we set forth on our journey wisely hurrying to avoid the season of magic snuff, when the mighty storms upon our route feigned to dash us into the cruel sea by the vast snuff plains ...

... and here, our mighty poet, Beowulf dids't sit and a poem write to please our belov-ed loav8r ...

The noble Hrothgar passed
over narrows, lonely paths,
steep, stony slopes
on that unknown way
among steep bluffs
and the homes of water monsters.

He and the wise men
went before the rest
to scout the place,
and suddenly, he saw
a joyless woods leaning over
turbid and bloody water.
For all the Danes
it was grievous, and
the warriors suffered
when they on the sea
cliff saw Aeschere's head.
The water boiled with blood
and hot gore as the men watched.

... to Lagos we have come and oh! ... ... nis Þaet heoru stow!

... Where are the ducky maidens and waving palms? Where are the hanging poles for our horn-ed flying helmets?

... We are Geats and here is our leader Hrothgar, take us to our Great Hall that we may sup and eat delicious almond kransekake from Madsen ...

... what is this Lodge of Blue?
