Long story short: taught kids about swearing as s substitute teacher, got the principal (my mother) in trouble, wrote a manuscript about swearing, interviewed a linguist about religion for the humanist (atheist) magazine, she invited me to join her book project on swearing, the book was published, the «kulturelle skolesekken» (bringing culture to schools) invited me to tour the northernmost, most swearing part of Norway to talk about swearing.

I’m a crossing guard at school. My amazing trick is to balance the lollipop on my nose.

I also know some Shakespearean sonnets and the first page of finnegans wake by heart, but that’s usually more expected.

The most wow reaction i had from my sons’ friends was when i swore better than them. But then again, i once went on a two week tour to schools teaching the kids how to swear, so …, no big deal.

Yes! But like all projects, they die quickly.

One channel for poems, mostly in Norwegian, but the occasional English/German as well Joyce!

Another for teaching Norwegian (in English) Some years old now
