I'm impressed that you got past the hidden mechanical backup detonator
with the very sensitive trigger!

FNAR!

"For No Apparent Reason"

Nup. It's not an acronym.

OK... new try:

Hmmm...?

Cool, FNAR spells SANE in ROT13.

Number #1. Originated from The Viz as F'nar, so I'm told.

F'nar is tangential to the Land of Green Ginger.

The Land of Green Ginger.

You don't do a lot of hallucinogenics, I take it?

Only when I hallucinate them.

Hallucinate what?

::: Another Swedish lesson:
:::
::: fil = yoghurt
::: kyl = fridge

oddly appropriate as a fridge is the best place to store yoghurt.

Which is why I mentioned it.

I'm afraid my knowlege of swedish is limited to tusen och en natt, which is
the *ahem* educational midnight movie on TV1000.

And I suspect you are not talking about classic literature?
