I passed over into the living room to find my three girls sleeping soundly. It was heart warming. There is nothing more beautiful than your wife and kids sleeping quietly while you watch a movie on your Macbook and drink beer. Tis the season. I had to make a post before this site started growing mold.Movies I recommend:
Obvious.

(This post as been edited)This post is designed to state what is obvious… to some.
- - Education is not to make you a genius. It’s to make you a complicit, easy to manage, consumer and worker in this world.
- -George Carlin says all of this well. -
- At the very least… question everything.
Christmas Tale
by Dr. Pants on Dec.22, 2007, under Norway
I wrote a little ditty about what it is like to live in Norway and got over 3000 hits in one day. Pretty Cool. Comments can be found here.
About three days ago my neighbor gave us a Christmas tree. Well, he didn’t exactly hand it to me but pointed way down the small mountain/big hill we live on and said, “There’s your tree.” So I put on my boots and hiked down to get it. I then dragged it up to the house and set it in the living room. There was one problem though. The tree had a huge space in the middle. It also lacked a ’side’. There was no way we were going to use this as our tree. I mean, it gave new meaning to Charlie Brown’s Christmas Tree. We smuggled a new one in yesterday. I hope they didn’t see us bring it in. Norwegians, like everyone else, ave their norms. I probably asked about 20 people at work if it would be considered rude to get a new one. One teacher suggested that, since the neighbors wouldn’t be in the house, we could say we wanted two trees.Works for me.
16 days off bitches! Happy Holidays.
