All fact - funny AND sad - at the same time. But ya, Norway could be a nice place to hang one's hat.

I need to move to Norway.

I was just thinking the same thing. Not to mention all that death metal. Sharpen my skates, I'm off.

Norway has like 3 hours of daylight in the winter. i like the cold, but would just as soon get in more turns during the day.

More like 6 hours, but I get your point. However... We compensate for that in the summer. Nothing like partying in the midnight-sun! Depends where in the country you live, though. Up north, you don't have sun at all in the winter.

Norway is nice. But we have a somewhat wierd relationship to temperatures, it seems... http://www.kalager.com/jokes/article299 ... vice=print

Hey man, it depends a little where you live
In the Northern parts (north of the arctic circle) there`s darkness all winter, and the sun never sets in the summer. I grew up there.

In the southern parts, you have "normal" light. I didn`t see the sun on Christmas eve before I was over 20 years old

Norway the blessed country................................
Norway has relatively high wages but believe me the prices for about everything are extremely high too. Without getting into detail i can reassure you that Norway is not better or worth than most other industrialized countries, but they really are good to keep up the appearances. I can tell you just some fine stories about Norway:
Politician in Kristiansand got damaged his car. They took out all that was worth a bit. Bought himself a camera and filmed it when the same thing happened a second time.
Police got all the evidence with the registration plates of the guys who did it. Case got closed a year later because the police had not enough resources to look at it.
16 year old girl i know damaged her knee. Had to wait one year for the operation- result: Operation not necessary anymore because her knee already was stiff.
Ethiopian guy gets knocked down in Oslo. Ambulance comes. They take up the guy who begins to pee. They begin to yell at the guy in the worst thinkable way let him lie there and drive away. Guy gets taken to a hopsital by his girlfriend (in a taxi) who is a known artist here (immigrant too). It shows the guy has a cerebral bleeding. If you think the ambulance personal looses their jobs, think twice you are in Norway (there is no Xenophobia in NOrway I could go on here FOREVER.
Road conditions: Have a colleague who attended a bicycle race. Hard to find a industrial country with worth road conditions or train connections. Ok back to the colleague. The guy attended a cycle competition. He cycled in a big group on a main road. The other guys managed to avoid a big hole in the road (really common here) but not he. He got a paraplegia and died 3 weeks later.
Quintessentially Norway is NOT a better place than most industrialized countries i know, not less Xenophobia, not less corruption and not less close minded people than anywhere else in the world. I would even say a lot more chauvinism than in every single place i have been so far. True they got natural resources a lot of other countries do not have, but that is ALL.
Conclusion: Not a better or worth country but a richer due to natural resources.
I can also reassure you that it`s not the norwegian guys who have the biggest rigs around here

I just googled it. I don't know the source so I have no idea about the author and it appears to be an opinion piece. One thing is for certain though; Norway does have a high standard of living and appears to be doing well despite having socialist elements in place. Maybe socialism isn't evil, who knew?
