I'm posting this since it was talked about on this weeks show. I was laughing at my desk this morning when the podcast crew were making fun of Geir.
I have met Geir twice at Epcot, Sept. 2005 and Sept. 2008. I didn't like the Eau de Parfum for Men until I got back home since the smell is so overwhelming in the shop in Norway (he sprays everyone that walks by). Once I realized I liked it I had to buy it online. I use very little of it because it does have a strong smell. A lady that works with me has the Laila for women and likes it a lot.
Anyways, I'm not sure where I'm going with this except that Geir is a nice guy, if not a little bit too pushy with his product. I can't imagine being stuck on a cruise ship with this guy chasing you around trying to apply his product. Oh well, it made for a funny podcast.

I didn't quite understand the reference, since I wasn't on the cruise, but I kinda felt sorry for the guy. :confused3

He was actually very nice - although he did squirt me several times and massaged my hands. He asked where we were from and talked for a bit about some realtives that he has that live not too far from us. We saw him leaving his stateroom one morning (which was on deck 2 - I was a bit surprised at that) to go to the gym, and he was all done up and smelling good.... Not what a normal person looks like when they go to the gym ;)

My DH loves that cologne and wears it often. Every time we go to EPCOT it seems like we see a sign that Gier is there or will be there soon. We laugh that he isn't even really from Norway - he lives in EPCOT in one of those cute houses in Norway! Now we know he vacations on DCL! :rotfl: If I tell DH that Gier was on the podcast cruise, I MIGHT have a chance of getting him to do the next one :thumbsup2

He was very kind. He gave my mom and me free samples. The line "he is where rainbows come from" had me laughing for hours after

He gave us a ton of samples too. Infact I'm using them so that the bottle I currently have lasts a bit longer, or at least until Sept when we go to WDW. I'll buy it there. Maybe Geir will be there and I can get him to sign the bottle.

My daughters and I use Laila. He gave me a few samples on the ship, too. Meg was thrilled and stuck one in her purse for prom!

He was very nice...though he wears the tightest dress pants I have ever seen....hopefully he has no plans on having children!!
BTW, I think his cologne helped me cover up my apparent smell of "butt" ! :lmao:

I agree!!! I walked by the shop where he was sprtizing people and couldn't believe how tight his pants were. And it takes alot for me to do a double take. :rotfl2::rotfl::lmao:

ok so let me get this straight cause I didn't quite understand either -
Geir is a Norweigen who created the Laila and the cologne whatever it is called - for men? And he occasionally is at Epcot and on the cruise ship trying to push his product? yes? And apparently, he is very "rainbowy?" ;)

My hand will never be the same....Geir kidnapped it for about 15 minutes.
And the pants are very tight.
And he's very nice, and loves to give away free samples, and gift cards, and loves to autograph things (he was even autographing the samples...LOL!). It was fun to talk to him, or rather, to listen to him as he chattered away like a monkey and massaged and lotioned my grody garden-weary hand.

Depends on which wife it is.
My Mom and I were walking thru the store where Geir was spritzing away. MY Mom looks at him, looks at me, looks at him and then says to me, "His pants were so tight, they leave nothing to the imagination."
This was one of the many things she said during the cruise. Right Jen?

He wasn't her type, I did hear she was looking for some action though!

I was in hysterics laughing, because I realized that I had been one of the people whose hands were "held hostage" by this guy. When I saw Jaime's photo, I knew it was the same guy. This happened to me a few years ago, as well.
I could not stop giggling during that part of the podcast. I nearly did a spittake when I heard the "rainbows" comment. :laughing:
And now I'm laughing at all those "tight pants" comments. He must have worn looser pants back then. ;)

Kevin's reaction to this "butt" statement was hysterical. I'm not sure what was funnier, the reaction or the statement.
I'm sure Geir has a good sense of humor and understands the good-natured ribbing that he received yesterday. You have to be friendly and good natured to spritz people all day. :rotfl:
I'm going to look for Laila when I'm in Epcot this October! I love perfume that you won't smell on every single woman in the supermarket.

Apparently you were not smitten with me, you didn't even recognize me for the rest of the cruise. Or.....maybe Pete was right? :snooty:

Some things on the boards make me smile, a few things make chuckle, but I laughed out loud so much from this one that my 3 year wanted to know what the funny joke was about. :rotfl2:

I was laughing so hard listening to the podcast. DH and I were sitting in the theater and decided each and every person in there must have been cornered by him because it smelled like we were inside the perfume bottle.

OMG, I was almost hyperventilating on this thread. He does look like Annie Lenox.
I had to take a picture. I knew no one would believe me when I got back and told ship stories. Those must be some industrial seams to not blow out when he bent over. I don't think they sell those pants in Iowa.
