2006- First Post

Only 45 minutes into the new year I thought it would be a good idea to post a few reflections. How original!

We went outside about half an hour before midnight to take part in the bizarre tradition of literally blowing money away. Over 35 million USD have just been set on fire here in Norway, purely for entertainment. Even the Norwegian Red Cross thought we should celebrate New Years Eve the traditional way (with all the fireworks) with a clear conscience, and rather incorporate a wish to contribute to the relief work during the rest of the year in our new-year resolutions. I don't make any. And I also spent almost 30 bucks on rockets. But I did put the empty wine-bottle we used for support in the recycling bin.

Happy New Year!
