Great clip, Eddie – I enjoyed that (but it would only play the first half or so, not sure why!) Is that Swedish? I reckon you’ll know!
Hope you enjoy(ed) Dakar,
Rob
I think it’s Norwegian…
Eddie, I thought this was great. It actually reminded me of something I read in a book by Walter Ong, that once someone is in a literate culture, thinking as one would in a primary oral culture is close to impossible. In other words, what makes this funny to me is that we’re computer literate and looking back to what it was like being book illiterate, but adding the script of what one would do to get help from the computer age. I like your blog.
