The Economy

If there is anyone confused about what the hell is going on with the economy, I am posting an episode of This American Life where they explain pretty much everything.

The Air.

On November 15, 2008, in Norway, by Dr. Pants

I think I have mentioned the air in Norway before. 

When Deb was pregnant with Natalie and she left Buffalo, for Norway, I came to visit a few times. Each time I came I lost weight. I also slept very deeply. It took me a few months to figure out it was the air. There is something about this place that makes the air like a drug. When I told my doctor that I lost weight when I visited, he said it was, partly, because I slept so well. 

I tried a little experiment a few weeks ago. I slept a whole week with the window shut. Then I slept a week with the window open a crack. I slept like a drugged baby when the window was open a crack. Needless to say, I leave it open a crack even when it is arctic cold outside. 

I have searched on for other people who have written about it. Nothing. 

Does anyone know anything about this?
