I saw an edited version of this once, laughed 'til I got sick. This is even better!

It appears that Members of Parliament have been given free rides on public transportation - without being taxed for it. Now, some of the present and former MPs risk receiving quite a bill.

Kaj Ikast, former Minister of Transportation, had this to say:

The parliament never informed me, that I should pay taxes for this (free transport). So you can all go to Hell. I built Storebæltsbroen, and I built Øresundsbroen (the two bridges connecting Sealand to Funen and Sweden respectively). At least this should give me free transport when going to and from meetings at Christiansborg.

:o) I totally agree. And we should also erect a monument in his honour - and maybe introduce a national holiday - Kaj Ikast-day.

1½ months ago we had this Indian or Pakistani tailor come by work to take measurements for new suits - and they arrived Monday!

Two custom tailored suits + extra set of pants for each + six shirts and four ties - for the price of one suit, if bought in Denmark (OK a suit and a couple of shirts). And it looks great, and apart from my being a centimeter slimmer around the waist a month ago - everything just fits.

The picture is from one of those 70s blaxploitation films, and something I picked up from a series - Everybody hates Chris - a "the wonder years" (Mine glade 60ere på dansk)-sort-of-thing but translated to the late 70s/early 80s with a black family with Chris Rock doing the narration - and it's funny. I love Chris Rock:

And everybody's talking about gun control, got to get rid of the guns. [....] F**k that shit.You don't need no gun control. You know what you need? We need some bullet control. .... l think all bullets should cost $5000. $5000 for a bullet. You know why? 'Cause if a bullet costs $5000, there'd be no more innocent bystanders. That'd be it. Every time someone gets shot, people will be like, ''Damn, he must have did something." ''Shit, they put $50.000 worth of bullets in his ass.'' People would think before they killed somebody, if a bullet cost $5000. ''Man, l would blow your fucking head off - if l could afford it!" -- Bigger and Blacker, 1999 HBO special

And it looks like we're going to Cuba in March! if Castro doesn't bite it - if he does, I think we're opting for somewhere else - most likely Brazil. But two weeks of doing nothing is going to be nice.
