  Oh... I polished an exhaust port, textured an intake port.  Finished up a chamber.  :-X ;D

Mjölnir was made by the dwarven brothers Sindri and Brokkr and worn by Thor.

Mjölnir is depicted in Norse mythology as one of the most fearsome weapons, capable of leveling mountains.   The hammer of Thor, a Norse god associated with thunder.

So you ride it than we can call you Thor from now on but who are the dwarven brothers in that case?  :P

Very good name for the bike actually, although the marvels depicting Thor have become quite popular nobody will associate Mjölnir whith it. Unless you live in Scandinavia like me.  ;)

Android phones are by the way flashed with a tool called Odin, which is a rather interesting fact too.

It's this Odin I had in mind...at least for Samsung. A true ruler of the mobile phone Valhalla.

Today, I had to take the car to work because of the snow. With luck, I will be able to ride to work by next Monday.

   Yeah..yeah.. yeah.  Dwarfs ... Lepricons .   It's all the same right ?! .  :o  Hahahaha !  :P  ;D       
 And I'm thinking ?..... Some people in the upper mid-west might just be familiar with Mjolnir as well.  ;)

Thank You.
