As someone once said to me "that wasn't hard"

Hmmm... I see that if I should wish to carry on an intelligent conversation with Hill in the future I must read up on Norse mythology

(not my specialty, but I'll pwn you all on Greek).... Hmmm, now where's that copy of Edith Hamilton...

You evil woman.

Explain it too me!

Please?
@ Tony: I have a feeling that Fiona could outdo me with her own knowledge in Norse mythology.

Cernunnos is the horned god of celtic mythology, yes? He is the consort of the triple goddess, and the year king. He dies at the summer solstice, killed by the next year king as a ritual sacrifice to ensure the harvest. Asgard is the home of the sky gods of the north, and therefore a masculine religion. They all go together when they go - much safer place for the Cernunnos figure, don't you think ?

[QUOTE=Hill-Shatar]@ Rav: Sounds difficult. Is it hard making something for children? Good to hear you do not have much more work to go, although I do not envy you writing 1000 words. [/QUOTE]
It depends really. The coursework is being judged more on the animation facilities used and such rather than suitability for the target audience I think. But I don't really see how I can aim what I'm writing at an older target group. So, maybe something around the age of 10 kind of thing. I would try to avoid aiming it at a younger audience as it would begin to get more complicated then.
Yep, 1000 words are always fun.

It does seem more than it actually is though.
[QUOTE=Hill-Shatar]Yes, what I said had hidden meanings.

[/QUOTE]
As usual. As always in fact
If we're going for Norse mythology, are you sure Celtic gods are linked to Norse ones? Celtic had druids and the like, Vikings had warrior gods that got drunk, killed stuff and got into wars.

I'm glad Opera has an encyclopedia.
Cernunnos and Ogma. Bah!
Loki's next. Or Thor. Viking that is. Not Stargate equivalents.

That's true, he did scare me enough that I had to stop eating his nuts... As for my parents, they said his nuts would make me fat and that I should stop... I did get my dad to try 'em though and he loves em now
Hello Fiber... It's best if you don't ask really

The nuts are my semi new product from the GCI, Numb Nuts are an assortment of nuts that have been coated with a mild anaesthetic that, when ingested, give the eater a feeling of numbness in their body, when ingested en masse, the eater can suffer a loss of consciousness, and even in extreme cases, short and/or longterm memory loss.
