Two long time neighbors are talking. One of them complains that he has skunks under his porch that he can't seem to get rid of. "Here's what you do," his friend says. "Make a big platter of lutefisk and put it under your porch. That will get rid of them." The next time they see each other the friend asks if he tried the lutefisk. "Yes, and it drove away the skunks. But now I can't get rid of the Norwegians."
