Apparently, SL 1 also lives in Shangri-la!!
« on: May 28, 2013, 08:26:59 PM »
"Australia has been named the world's happiest industrialized nation for the third year running, based on criteria including satisfaction, work-life balance, income and housing", per the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development's (OECD) Better Life Index.  Australia beat out Sweden and Canada (also very nice places...)  :D

Sounds wonderful...  although it's a good thing that 'access/proximity to MK concerts' were not included in the index criteria.  >:( :P

Yes "access to MK" would have us getting foreign aid from Russia!!

It's a nice sunny country, but give me North America and I'll swap any day !! :)
Hey, i`ve got a truffle dog - finally a song the ordinary man can relate too!

Well my dogs do a lot of sniffing, but mostly each others bottoms... no truffles yet, I'll just have to 'Get Lucky' some other way! :)

When I first heard that lyric I nearly fell over from embarrassment, now it alway makes me laugh.

Hahahaha!!  Super excellent!!!  :D 

I just love 'Get Lucky'... always puts me in a good mood and always helps me keep perspective -- even without a truffle dog!!

I love that song.    It's so positive and hopeful.  That's in addition to all the other good things about it.
But a spoonful of forgiveness
Goes a long, long way
And we all should do our best
To get along
