my oldest daughter graduates from law school this summer. :-)

 

sweden has a lot of the cutting edge tech and green research groups in the world.

 

Sweden's pretty f***in' awesome from what I hear. Pipe dream of mine to see the CERN LHC.

 

We were doing trivia in science, a gifted science class, and only 3 kids knew where the LHC was including me. That's just not right

might as well add the yellow and red cards from soccer while you're at it. lol

 

That would be awesome!! Instead of pointing to a pitcher for a warning, or when a manager is pushing it with the yelling pull out a yellow! Their reactions would be PRICELESS.

 

*Gibbons yelling s*** at the ump*

*Ump pulls out yellow*

"WHO THE f*** DO YOU THINK YOU'RE SHOWING YELLOW TOO YOU f***ING PIECE OF s***??? STICK THAT UP YOUR-"

*Ump pulls out 2nd yellow, red card*

"AW f*** YOU YOU PIECE OF f***"

Congrats! I always hear good things out of Scandinavian countries, especially Sweden. I need to go there at least to visit, if not live there. You guys need computer science positions by any chance? lol

 

you can live anywhere with computer science. if you are good enough there will always be work. not sure how hard it is to move here. I married a swede so it was easy. lol

 

nice place to visit. lots of history.

The Tug-o-War is frowned upon. What a civil society we will in LOL

 

Thumb wars are too violent as well

Could be worse, in the States they probably don't even know they're in Science class :)

I'm with you on this. Iraq had the same aspect of allowing kids to have the highest education possible under the Saddam Era. Because of this, there was a lot of Iraqis getting hired for high engineering and doctorate positions in Britain and parts of Europe as well as having the best reputation in the Middle East, especially throughout the 80s. Too bad it's not the same anymore

 

Cuba does this as well, but I'm not a fan of insane dictators. Venezuela did this as well, but Chavez was a little wacko himself, but at least he was democratically elected.

Haha you hit the lottery then!

 

I am very good enough thank you very much :P. Just need more theory tweaking and more efficient approaches. I'm confident that uni + more practice will help me perfect those things

We're supposed to be "inquisitive"

 

(Psst: Gifted kids are morons. We're not that smart)

Absolutely terrifying.

not many people know what a collider is .. what is the one in Germany where they study dust particle collision called?

"The LHC tunnel is located 100 metres underground, in the region between the Geneva International Airport and the nearby Jura mountains."

That's a good point!

Saddam isn't as crazy with his people. Iran/Iraq tensions were always there and America was pushing for a conflict, knowing that we had the stronger military at the time and that they hate Iran. Kuwait was his biggest mistake because it shows what measures a Dictator goes if he's publicly insulted in a gathering. Other than that, security was on point, taxes wasn't too high, stable economy, lots of oil was actually running through the country, free high education with (at that time) advanced internship programs. Women were allowed to walk near/past midnight and not get harassed, and houses locks were left open (in non poor places), that's how safe it was. Baghdad was developed as hell, as well as several other cities getting built in time, and Jordan's biggest university was actually a Saddam creation too lol

You live in Sweden cool.... But if you wanted to lose 70% of your paycheck... You could have just moved to Nova Scotia.
