Thor Factoids

I can't wait to see the upcoming Thor movie. Yeah it's hardly mythology but still Marvel's Thor is based on the god of the same name. Here are a handful of factoids about the mighty son of Odin. The mythological one I mean.

Some Thor factoids

- In the Norse mythology, the thunder god has red hair.
- Thor devotees wear images of his hammer as pendants as a response to the rise of Christianity in Europe.
- The day Thursday is named after him.
- Thor has two goats (named Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr) that pull his chariot.
- Thor will do battle with the great serpent Jörmungandr during the immense mythical war waged at Ragnarök.

My Ideal Afterlife

Egyptian afterlife

You know what's my ideal afterlife? Living on as a benevolent spirit like Obi Wan Kenobi. I'll be one with the universe yet can manifest myself at the same time. More than that, I'll travel throughout different realms within and beyond this universe. Which means, I can freely go to Earth, the Judeo-Christian Heaven, Asgard, Olympus, the Western Lands, the Hindu God Realm, El Randomia, the Jade Empire, Middle Earth, Azeroth, Oz and many more while helping people and fighting evil wherever I go like a wandering cosmic adventurer. Yes, I'd like that.


I have an afterlife plan just in case I kick the bucket. It's a set of instructions for my closest friends and relatives to ensure that I achieve that ideal afterlife. However, I can't post them in this blog because 1) It's very personal and 2) It's not the right time to reveal them. When the signs are right, I'll reveal my instructions to the public.

Cool story bro.
