This is my userpage, my little corner of Wikipedia. Consider yourself warned. For the most part, it serves me as a reference to what I've done so far, but feel free to browse thru it if you like.

Due to the fact that I've recently found out that I indeed had a subscription to Real Life(tm), I find myself with less spare time to devote to Wikipedia. As I'm sure you all know, a full subscription to Real Life(tm) cost a lot of both money and time, but I find it well worth pursuing. You might want to consider getting your very own Real Life(tm) at some point ;)

Please - don't edit my userpages (except my talkpage); if you see something that needs fixing / something you disagree with / plain don't like, do drop me a note on my talk page about it. Thank you.

Things you might want to know about me
Well, as I see it, there are two options here... either you know who I am, or you don't. If you do, fine. If you don't, well, read on then.

I'm a guy, 30 something, into lots of different stuff - including the following:
 * Military aircraft
 * Things that go boom!
 * History
 * Rockets and spacecraft
 * Computers
 * Firearms
 * I seem to have written a lot of articles on old Norwegian naval vessels...

I am from Norway, and work for the Royal Norwegian Air Force. That may help explain some of my interests.

I have also found the most wonderful woman in the world and married her - and since she is speaking English, my language has improved markedly.

I've been editing on Wikipedia since 22 July 2004 as a logged in editor, although I started editing shortly before with just my IP.

Why that nickname?
It's one of the two handles I uses online. Basically, it started because a friend on another board noted that In short, she started referring to me as "the 'wegian warrior", and it sort of stuck.
 * 1) I'm a 'wegian
 * 2) I'm a warrior (both by profession, and by the codes I live by)
