Meanwhile as nothing is going on, I still watch the stage a bit because there is a lioness on the run.

Haha I cycled through that area this morning because of a doctor appointment. Only heard of the search afterwards, not that it would've bothered me anyway. As an avid cycling fan, after this season I've got plenty of expertise how to deal with nasty cats!
 
Today would have been the perfect day to discuss the different characteristics of Burg vs Schloss and the etymology of Danish surnames.
Vingegaard is a toponym, a Danish manor house.


Ejerhistorie

Vingegaards først kendte ejer var Ove Tagesen Reventlow, som ejede gården i midten af 1400-tallet. Hans barnebarn, Christoffer Kruse, fik Vingegaard i 1530 blot få år før den store borgerkrig, Grevens Fejde (1534-1536), brød ud. Uroen skyldtes rigsrådets uenighed med hensyn til valget af en ny konge. Den voksende uro blandt folket sprang ud i et åbent oprør mod adelen. I spidsen for det nordjyske bondeoprør stod Skipper Clement, der støttede Christian II's (1481-1559) genindsættelse som konge. Oprøret blev dog slået ned, og rigsrådet måtte nødtvunget indsætte den reformerte Christian III (1503-1559). I 1536 var borgerkrigen slut, og Danmark tilhørte ikke længere den katolske kirke.

Borgerkrigen fik stor betydning for Vingegaard, der blev brændt ned af oprørske bønder. Hvilken stilling Christoffer Kruse havde under oprøret er uvis, men han har sandsynligvis været på rigsrådets side og bekæmpet bondeoprøret. Frem til 1620'erne var Vingegaard ejet af slægten Kruse, men i 1625 blev den solgt. Ejerforholdene på denne tid er, som for mange andre herregårde, indviklede, idet gården deltes blandt flere arvinger. Disse arveandele kunne derefter nedarves, handles eller byttes, hvorfor gårdene i lange perioder kunne have mange og skiftende ejere.

With the Hollywood strikes going on, maybe now is the time for my idea for a tv series: 'Jonas House, MD.' Its about a doctor who gets carried by grumpy teammates for the whole show upto the final act where he disappears into the distance to beat his enemies to death... side plots include diagnosing his fellow doctors with illnesses and mocking his friend Dr Pogacar for being slow.

Side plot also includes the most gifted doctor anyone has ever seen who constantly goes off on his own but comes back just in time to help Jonas House with a complex surgery and to eat pancakes in the hospital cafeteria.
