THE HAPPIEST NATION IN THE WORLD

Every year, since 1981, the National Science Foundation has done a World Values Survey. Always asking the same two questions.
  1. Taking all things together, would you say you are very happy, rather happy, not very happy, not at all happy?
  2. All things considered, how satisfied are you with your life as a whole these days?
This time around the USA came in 16th. The winning nation was Denmark.

You know what is becoming popular in China? Pole dancing.
I guess lap dancing is second year curriculum.
BTW - Take a few minutes and enjoy this article's slideshow of images from around the globe.


I would have loved to have been the proverbial "fly on the wall" when the cracker company Chez-It decided to commission a sculpture of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. A scupture made from a one ton block of cheddar cheese.
I know where we can get some tomatoes real cheap. Lets make some nachos!



"Let's all be careful out there!"
