I saw someone post this picture in r.s.s. Apparently, the guy was upset that he wasn't let in a pool in Czechoslovakia where he was visiting (he's from the U.S.) Have you seen these kind of signs elsewhere? Not that I'm against them, I'm perfectly fine wearing the "approved" attire.

PAul, I am not sure about Norway, but can tell you some things about Sweden that is #2 on the list.Besides, Norway is another Scandinavian country and can have much in common.From my experience from learning economics in college, talking to some friends I knew from Sweden and visiting it myself, I can say that Sweden is a paradise.Their economy is considered to be the most developed , the gap between the "rich" and the "poor" is 2%!!!Can you imagine?There are pretty much no poor there!They have no financial problems there whatsoever.From what I learnt they mostly never lock there houses and crime aimed at gaining financial profit is something they are not very familiar with...One thing my friend brought up though was: it is so perfect that it is boring!I could not live there.Well, I guess we were used to too much "action" in Russia.
And then Paul, come on ,what is up with the question "What is there in Norway that it makes it the place to be?"Let us not talk about something that we do not know very well.Well, what is so good about ANY country?What you say is good about America is not just an American thing, we are not living in medieval times.Freedom of speech and all that is pretty much anywhere now excluding just a handful of countries.
it is good where we are and what we are used to - it is simple as that.With that I have to admit I miss Russia, not sure if I can live here all my life, but we'll see...
Amazing thing I noticed: I am better off here financially, but was happier back in my home country.Talk about what matters in life.
