Boy Do I feel honored :lol: :lol: :lol: .... Or what... And were even going to Digital TV in August.....So you wouldnt BELIEVE the hassle and lines at the electronic stores at the moment....for the Digital Boxes or Receivers for the older televisions...TV Dealers are selling them about as much as the Mobile Phones here.
But as you noticed I dont watch much TV here... No time Im on the TTT Forum.. Its more interesting..

Whew... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks for the News .... :thumbsup: ;)

Gee 1 out of the 96% And 1 out of a population of 5.5 Million with an unapproved Teardrop... Chitt I feel special.... :lol: :lol:
And still smiling and goin on with a Dream....

And by the way - Isnt Ingvar the Teardrop builder - from Sveden for sure.

Another statistic just announced:

Finland makes it to number 4 in the chart of child well-being in industrialized countries, behind Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark.

The US comes in 20th and my country comes 21st, plumb last. :(

PS: those in the US, do not fear - this report comes from Unicef, so you'll be able to pretend it isn't true, as Unicef is a UN body.......

Well thats a fine Howdy Doody.... :o :shock:

Well our kids are doing well... Both parents working lil ones at daycare..
or when they are old enough... starting at 11 or 12 years old.. Unfortunately they spend time alone till parents get home which is sad.
Kids feel it too unfortunately...
Seems like the Daycare raise the kids more and more in the fast paced world we live in... Also very sad..

To make ends meet here both parents must work if possible.. But I dont think our Country is alone with this situation...

Kids are the ones that suffer.... but we do our utmost best...
