    translation from Norwegian needed

    I am trying to read on a musician, but my Norwegian is not that good and the translator on my Kindle is pretty sketchy. I appreciate any help (heck-you guys probably know him anyway )

    Thanks! I just learned of this guy and was curious about his accomplishments. Not much on him in English and he is totally absent from English versions of Wikipedia.

    I was going to go with "Drink a pint of milk a day" (something Judas Priest once said, I think about backmasking) but yours is better. Much, much better. I should have thought of it.

    It says "It's Tuesday. I got to call my Mudder." (Spoken in a drawn out fashion, of course.)

    I got part of an article, but when I tried to run it through a translator, it sounded garbled

    "GJERSTAD: 112.000 kroner vil Agder Energi ha for å koble 29-åringens kulturhus og lydverksted til kraftnettet. -Et slikt økonomisk løft klarer jeg ikke, sier Gjerstad-ildsjel Knut Magne Valle."

    Also, what is "Papiravis fredag og lørdag, eAvis og full
    digital tilgang alle dager" and "Papiravis, eAvis og full digital tilgang alle dager"?

    Gjerstad {town] Agder energy [supply company] wants 112.00 kr [approx 20 K $] to connect the the 29 years old culturhouse and soundlab to the energy net. "I dont have money like that says the Gjerstad-fiery soul Knut Magne Valle.

    Papiravis is the physical newspaper fridag and saturday, eavis - is the online version, full digital tillgang alle dager, means you can read it online all days.

    "The power company Agder Energi wants 112.000 NKr to connect the 29 years old cultural centre and audio workshop to the power grid. - Such a requirement (such a financial boost - unclear) I can't handle, says the Gjerstad enthusiast Knut Magne Valle."

    Takk! That makes sense. When I ran through a translator, it was incoherent.
