Just a quick wave as I sweep by tonight. I’m going to a lecture tonight (against my general principle of not going out on weeknights–or any night, come to think of it) to hear a lecture. A man from Norway will be speaking tonight at the University Club in St. Paul, and members of our Viking group were specifically invited. The speaker is an expert on Norwegian square-sailed boats, and is one of the trainers for the crew of the Dragon Harald Fairhair Viking ship project.

My Amazon sales of Troll Valley had a little spike yesterday, probably because of my column at The American Spectator Online. Yes, I watch the figures. And yes, I do esteem my personal worth on the basis of sales figures. Pray for me.
