Thanks for the book recommendations. When I get the cash, I will
certainly look into one or more of them.

The Norse Course exercises are great. I've gone through most of them,
and am trying to make things harder for me which is why I've struck out
on my own with the Havamal.

After I wrote, I dug a bit deeper and found the Zoega and CV online (not
at northvegr as they've taken it down).

here: http://norse.ulver.com/dct/zoega/index.html
and here: http://lexicon.ff.cuni.cz/

I'll post again as I find more and send my efforts to the list for
review, if that's okay.
