A Google check on Statoil is something to do with crude oil for refining. 

Henrik has not been around for awhile but email on the way.  ;)

BTW Scott, it's Rasmussen.  :P

Someone called?

Dale I have send you a mail, but here is a direct translation for all of you Defenders to read, cause it is indeed danish.

Få en bedre start på dagen meen directly translated Get a better start on the day. So it meens you start the day better with coffee from a statoil Station.

Statoil is the former Esso, here in Denmark all Esso gas stations was renamed Statoil in the late 80's or early 90's.

Hope this helps.

-Henrik

btw: there is absolutely no snow here in Denmark, the weather is quite hot with 10 degrees Celcious ( 50 degrees Farenheit).

Well, we're sitting in the midst of a three day wind chill warning ::)

Currently -31 C with 15 KMH winds, windchill = -42.  Forecast low is -36 C. 

Nice "high" tomorrow, -29 C ::)

There's just something Canadian about bitching about the weather.  It must be our national pasttime.   ;)

So, I'll proceed:  currently -29o::)
But the cold snap should be over soon!
-14oc tomorrow and -2oc for Xmas.  More importantly, the wind seems to be leaving us alone now.   :)

-2 F here. Not sure what it is in Celsius, since I bombed every science class I ever took and I'm American.

Nice and cold is what it is.  Around -20 C or so.

We got enough snow to make driving a pain last night, but it'll all melt off this week when it gets into the upper 30s F.

Nope, we decided to keep it ;)  Not that we ever send you weather, but you know what I mean. 


We finally caved.  Enough of the hibernation, my daughter couldn't stand it, so we went out skating in the -32 windchill.  Stupid as it sounds, that was way better than the early week temps. 

Upcoming forecast looks positively balmy, but that's just long range BS.  They longranged this weekend at near zero.  It's warmer (-12 C) and the windchill isn't so bad (-20 C) but I don't trust them.

Anything other than the -40s and I'm happy now.
