[QUOTE=Lee Shore;188007]Your deep understanding of the inner workings of the Norwegian philosophy of life is beyond reproach. If I am not mistaken, after six months of successfully knocking out wayward Canadian tourists, bears are provided with lavish estates and all the caviar they can eat for as long as they live. They spend a lot of time watching American TV and looking down their noses at us dumb yanks.[/QUOTE]
Important safety advice to hikers in the Norwegian backcountry: Never walk between a bear and her tv set. If you find a bear acting aggressively, drop the lutefisk and slowly back away. Do not run, and do not attempt to have the last word.
