Eggs

Good morning,

and well met.

Most of you have probably been

up and about for a few hours now.

But we also know that

some of you enjoy

staying under the duvet,

listening to our show.

And when the opportunity arises,

why not?

However, let's not forget that

some, maybe for health reasons,

are confined to bed.

And to those, I'd like to wish

a speedy recovery.

Maybe you're considering

having a cup of coffee now...

Moe?

Speaking of coffee,

we've received this long letter...

Pa and Moe are brothers

Good morning and well met.

Today I'm in our studio

examining a calendar stick.

It's a gift to our staff from a listener in

Halden who eagerly follows our series on

ancient weather markers.

Actually, these calendar sticks

have become quite popular again.

Moe?

They are particularly

in demand as souvenirs.

And it is indeed rather

curious that such a small stick

can tell us so much about

people's sense of time and

their feast days through the centuries.

How many times do I

have to tell you that...

Pa and Moe have spent

their entire lives together...

...you mustn't drink raw water.

Except for Pa's scooter trip

to Smaaland

Tampen, Statfjord:

South and southwest,

strong breeze, 12 m/s.

Moderate to poor visibility.

The Orkney Islands

and The Hebrides:

Southwesterly breeze rising to

strong breeze on Thursday, 12.

Moderate or good visibility.

Rockall:
Southerly strong breeze,12,

rising to near gale on Thursday, 15.

Here, open wide.

The pound sterling moves up to 11.96

The French franc moves up to 108.60

Will you stop doing that?

The U.S. dollar drops

from 5.4410 to 5.4290

The Canadian dollar...

Then there's 16 across...

"inflammation." Now, let's see..

Seven degrees Celsius.

No, eight.

But you just said it was seven!

Seven?

That's what you said.

Well, it's cold no matter what.

Rain and rain showers.

Moderate to poor visibility.

Storegga, Frya- and Haltenbanken:

Southwesterly strong breeze, 12 m/s.

Intermittent rain,

moderate visibility.

Selling 116, buying 115

Storebrand sells 164

and buys 167.

What an idiotic crossword puzzle!

Modern nonsense!

Seabird, 10 letters.

Albatross-e!

Albatross-e?

It is called albatross.

Yes, but that's only nine letters.

Very well, but still...

... someone who gets a pirate TV decoder

to watch encrypted TV transmissions,

without having to pay.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean to hurt you.

But you pricked me.

Come now,

it isn't all that bad.

I just got jumpy

because of that explosion.

What explosion?

-Yes.

You didn't hear it?

No. Where?

I guess it was...over there.

-Over there?

-Yes.

-Really, over there?

-Yes, really!

Do you see anything?

Yes, of course I see something...

...but I see no explosion.

Anyhow, something did go off.

Nonsense!

Pa and Moe do not own a TV set

The Western makes a comeback,

but there's a new hero.

Louie Talker fights.

John Wayne killed the Indians,

...today's hero moves in

with the Indians,

unless he's not busy

dancing with animals.

Yes, that's correct.

No...no, it doesn't.

Let me have a look.

No, this can't be correct.

Oh, yes, it is.

The scales are brand new.

Well, let's weigh you then.

Let's see...

This needs to go over here.

- Yes...yes.

Like so.

How much did daddy weigh

near the end?

Well, not much at all.

- Indeed.

But I don't get this.

Why is there such a difference?

-Do a recheck then.

That huge a difference can't be right...

Go get dressed, Moe. Otherwise,

you'll just catch a cold again.

Do you need to scold me every time

my weight's been revealed?

Moe enjoys dancing

after he's been weighed

Do you have to play so loud?

At least turn it down to talking level!

Good morning and well met.

Time for a story.

Just before Christmas

a little girl came home from school

and said that her class was going

to make some Christmas presents...

All the way up there.

Hand me a glitter garland, please.

Thank you.

This goes here.

Flags next!

Thanks.

Christmas ornaments!

Ornaments, yes...

Thanks.

Here's an extra

Christmas ball for you.

Oh, thank you.

When are you actually

going to grow up?

Actually?

Then Job stood up, tore apart his

cape, and cut off all his hair.

No, no, no, no.

Listen to this:

"Then Satan fled before

the eyes of The Lord,

And struck Job with

a malignant tumor...

from the soles of his feet

to the top of his head."

Do you really need to read

that stuff on Christmas Eve?

But that is what it says here.

- Oh, well.

- Pa?

- Yes?

Do you remember that time

daddy got ill,...

and they stuck a big rod up his prick?

- Uff, no...

...wasn't it some kind of tube?

- No, I think it was a long stick.

But daddy did not

understand any of that.

That's right.

He didn't even understand that

praise could be dangerous, too.

Most certainly.

I could really do with

a decent cup of coffee now.

I hope it's strong enough.

It definitely is.

Really good.

I just found two hazelnuts

in one shell again!

Oh, really?

Do you want to play filipine?

[trad. Christmas game involving hazelnuts]

Yes, fine by me.

What are we playing about?

About whether the sausage salesman

will come this year as well...

He won't be back this year.

Really? I think he will.

Well, what's the prize then?

The dishwashing, of course.

Dear all,

in a few hours it will be

January, 1995.

A month that got its name

from the Roman god, Janus
