Hello Zlater! Welcome to the forums!
Zlatan is actually a pretty common name in the Balkans, although I guess Ibrahimovic is the most famous by a pretty big degree :P

Nah, I just surf around Wikipedia a lot when I don't have anything else to do (like on the train).

The best series of books there is, shame on anyone who hasn't read it.
Technically it includes me, as I listened to it.

I agree! Although, I've only read the Swedish translation, so I've yet to experience the original. I'm thinking about reading the English version though, only to see if one is better than the other.

Actually, me too.
I listened to it on cassette tapes while out sailing on the Baltic with my still very much active grandpa. It was great :]
...or rather, only the first two books while out sailing. The rest I listened to at home, if I should be correct.

A question that comes to my mind:
Where do the most people in these forums live?
