This is a great image. How often do we have the perfect nugget of truth or great idea and then think we have to work it over and over until it’s unrecognizable or disappears like the melting snowball.
We are ready for Stormhoek in the States!
I hate to shoot this snowball down, but if you polish a snowball it gets really hard and mean and turns into an iceball. I get your idea, but having been hit by one too many polished snowball, the picture doesen’t gel in my head. Maybe Norwegian snowballs aren’t like normal ones. Sorry about this, I’ll never post anyting critical on your blog again!
Depends how you polish it, Gyri
