Creationist movements in Britan and Australia. Wonderful.

I really don't want to try Spain.... it's been much too long since I studied the language...

This is a heartbreak... I've always been an Anglophile and dreamed of someday retiring to Britain to finish out my days there. Very sad...

<a href="http://www.thisislondon.com/dynamic/news/story.html?in_review_id=522065&in_review_text_id=4 86907" target="_blank">... now just hang on a minute there...</a>
<a href="http://webcenter.newssearch.netscape.com/aolns_display.adp?key=200203141002000229264_aolns. src" target="_blank">... yes, very interesting indeed.</a>

OK, I take that back.

The Netherlands look better every day.

This is off topic, but here is further evidence that the UK is more civilized than the US:

Sweden also gave us August Strindberg, all the films of Ingmar Bergman, Greta Garbo, and Birgit Nilsson (who would be enough to balance out any demerits arising from 70s disco

The easiest way of achieving said aim would be happy hour at the student union bar coinciding with the event.

Totally off-topic, but, on the subject of European nationalities:

In Heaven:

The Cooks are French
The Police are British
The Lovers are Italian
And it's all organized by the Germans.

In Hell:

The Cooks are British
The Police are French
The Lovers are German
And it's all organized by the Italians.
