  As a Norwegian, I am fully aware that my ancestors helped created the English language by first invading the welsh isles, and then, three generations after invading the Francs, we invaded the isles again with romance speaking nobility for generations.

  English is a Nordic made Francish/Welsh/Germanic creole that was made popular by the still Norwegian blooded crown.

  I used to pronounce it “sk”, but in my new job, working with schedules with a Londoner, it is now “sh” for me. Undoing the US-ification of my English one word at a time.

  Of course, wouldn’t want consistency or anything trivial like that.

  The screaming from the principal after we put the home page of all computers in the computer hallway of our upper childrens school to rotten dot com.

  Orangeparty homepage still haunts me as much as Arachnophobia did to an 11 year old mind.
