    Default Top 5 countries for quality of life

    I caught this on the radio last night. And y'all know my catching ability is a tad zonked. But the top 5 countries.

    Norway, Sweden, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. I was half asleep so the order may be wrong and I do not know what they were quoting. But the announcer said of those who mention that all the world wants into the US, guess again.

    Bush's America made a couple of lists for human rights violations.

    We Native Americans are still waiting for the US to honor a single treaty with us.

    I don't blame them for not including SA in the list. It sucks to live in this country.

    Well understandably NZ is a clean green environment.

    And we're not at all.

    The more I think about it the more I like the idea of sending Bush to the Hague for trial as a war criminal.

    There are a lot of people here who did not support the war. When you hear a poll of 70% favoring something, ask exactly what the question was and in what order questions were ask.

    Most polls are of the form "When did you stop beating your wife".
    a. Never did. Ahh, never stopped.
    b. What do you mean. Don/t know the difference between right and wrong.
    c. and so on.

    Quality of life.

    I think the attitude of the people, just being friendly and easy going, was also mentioned.

    Of course if they are all like Trogg and the resident sex goddess, they could not reach another conclusion!

    "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO-HOO What a ride!"
