  1. Yo Bjorn! Don’t know if it’s just me but your trifextra link is redirecting back to the trifextra page rather than here. Check it out.
    Nice post btw!

  2. oh my, the ways that i love this are far too many to say here.
    Icarus-my horses name
    Icarus-used as my alter ego for many years
    Icarus- I flew too close too the sun much too young.

    so great Bjorn. so great.

  3. you’re so brilliant, you make me feel like I’m looking at the sun when I read you.
