Yay Vikings! (No, not Minnesota, the other kind)

Season 3 of Vikings starts tonight on the History channel! Is anyone else out there a huge fan of this series? (I know Francie, Mary and Cal are!)

To mark the return of Ragnar, Rollo, Lagertha, Bjorn, Floki and the gang, how about a few Viking LOLs? If that's not a contradiction in terms, I mean.

Historically, the Vikings were tremendous explorers. Those guys sure as hell got around. When you least expected it, there they'd be.

These days, however, Vikings restrict themselves to corporate raiding and financial plunder only.

Plus they take holidays now. Everyone's got to relax sometime.

Traditionally, Viking kids are raised to be fierce right from Day One.

Even their friggin' CATS are vicious.

So for example, don't let this baby's charming smile fool you. Inside every plush Teddy bear snowsuit, there's a savage Viking waiting to get out.

And baby Viking girls ALL want to be Valkyries. Who can blame them? I want to be a Valkyrie myself!

Hey, want the man in your life to look more like a sexy Viking? Here's a quick and easy way to achieve it using only simple household cutlery.

Or you can persuade him to get a haircut like Ragnar's.

If he'd prefer to leave his hair long, however, just make sure he doesn't wash it or brush it for a couple of weeks. And if he can cultivate a Stone-Cold Killer glare as well, then BONUS! The Barbarian is at the gates -- rowrrrr!
