What is the meaning of all of the bodies squashed together in what looks like painful torture?

I thought it was a giant orgy on a giant phallus. :blushing:

new slogan for Norway:

"When in Norway, See the Giant orgy on the Giant Phallus"

Do you have any idea what babysitters charge in Norway?

Quick--back away from the computer!

Yes, giant orgies can lead to those. :wink:
 
What else is there to do on those cold Norwegian nights that last for six months?

Certainly not DURING the giant orgies, though, so who invited the kids?
 
maybe it's a TRIBUTE to the ORGIES----and the aftermath

It is meant to portray the struggle of life in how we tear and trample and make love to each other.

The resolution is found at its very top, the dome is made out of joining hands.

Hi

I see that you guys have posted pictures of Smalehove. These pictures were actually taken by me...and I ate the head :biggrin: this is actually quite a popular dish especially around Christmas time and in the west of the country. And believe it or not...it is quite tasty (well, if you leave the eye out of this). So if you come to Norway in the wintertime be sure to try it...eating local food is an important part of the culture. That is why I tried cuy in Peru...fried guinea pig :-)

So, how's the Nordic donor list looking?

deep fried.

Although those Peruvian Guinea Pigs seem awfully large!
 
Wiki said:
Peruvians consume an estimated 65 million guinea pigs each year, and the animal is so entrenched in the culture that one famous painting of the Last Supper in the main cathedral in Cusco shows Christ and the twelve disciples dining on guinea pig.
