Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I love these inch long bees. They've made me happy all day long. And thank you for the nice poetry, Tangent. I've been working on a tune to go with it. It's sort of Henry Rollins meets Frank Sinatra.

JJ: Peter: I had no idea this roller derby thing was so huge. They've got teams all across the US. It's wild.

Rune Willem: Yes.. i am afraid that visitors to Oslo Norway and other places in Norway will be very chocked about our prizes here in Norway. Here is some examples: A beer in glas = 14 dollars pr half a liter,a beer in botle = 16 dollars. On shot of whiskey(4 cl.)=...

Peter: they look busy as... well... bees!

in response to Just Bee

Peter: some constructive tips: 1) practice cleaning up the stencil-work. they seem to start crisp and then get drippy and bleedy... as if you either got alot more rushed as you went (which makes sense- no one wants to get busted) or the stencil itself got saturated with paint/overspray and basically turned...

Ben: The actual name for the Gherkin is 30 St Mary Axe, which is just the address - boring. It's built on the site of the old Baltic Exchange which was blown up by an IRA bomb in April 1992. It's a very cool building. You can see it from almost anywhere...

Chris Erb: I don't know where the "Landing" part of the name came from. There are apartments up the hill called Regency Heights which makes sense. Maybe it's because the city is on a river?
