Ole & Lena jokes are what keep the folks smiling up here despite
blizzards, crappy sports teams and mosquitoes the size of small aircraft.

Sometimes they get a bit bigger.  I (a MN native) was a tech-rep on the
F-106 at Duluth AFB.  One day a mosquito landed at the base.  The ground
crew refueled and did a pre flight before they realized it had the wrong
tail numbers.

And those of Scandinavian descent are the only group that don't get up-tight
about "racial jokes".  They make them up themselves and are proud of them.
They even publish such gems as Norwegian Medical Dictionaries:

ie:

DIARRHEA          Journal of daily events
DILATE:               To live long
RECTUM:             Dang near killed 'em



Or the flight announcements heard at Oslo airport:

Lufthansa Flight 123, departing for Frankfurt from gate A-13 at 14:30 hours
British Airways Flight 543, departing for London from gate A-17 at 14:40 hours
Air France Flight 675, departing for Paris from gate A-3 at 14:50 hours
Northwest Airlines Flight 15, departing for Minneapolis-St. Paul from gate A5 when the big hand is on the twelve, and the little hand is on the three.
