AND i hear they have a large number of atheists and agnostics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/800px-OsloSkyline.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this shirt makes me giggle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/a1204_bm.gif" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;place #4: sweden.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;mostly because of the ice hotels.  they are also in canada and alaska, but...i like sweden.  for the record, some of these pictures may not be from sweden, but they rebuild this thing differently every year, so it hardly matters.  all these places are melted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/stockholm.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/icehotelsuite.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this is a suite.  the furs gross me out, but i love the sculpture.  and the beds are made of ice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/ice_hotel_T4681.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ice bar.  even the cups are made of ice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/ice-hotel-sculptures.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;amazing sculptures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;now for my wedding.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/icechurch.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;part of the ice hotel, this is an ice church.  i always said i didn't want to be married in a church...then i saw this one.&lt;br /&gt;of course, i'll be married by a greenlandic drag queen instead of a priest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this will be my dress:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/1553_F.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/newbridalgown.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and i don't want a corpse bride cake, but i like the colors on this one and where they were going with the design and lace and butterflies.  i'd replace the brown stripes with white, though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a44/eyeballeater/corpsebridecake.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, that's all i have for today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;3&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8351321432490811742-2658131923475805005?l=spleenfiend.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://spleenfiend.blogspot.com/feeds/2658131923475805005/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://spleenfiend.blogspot.com/2009/01/here-its-december-every-day.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8351321432490811742/posts/default/2658131923475805005'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8351321432490811742/posts/default/2658131923475805005'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://spleenfiend.blogspot.com/2009/01/here-its-december-every-day.html' title='here it&apos;s december every day.'/><author><name>spleeny</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BFlDhd3IpUc/SWas-1ug9RI/AAAAAAAAADA/p7Nl4P49sAY/S220/smiley3.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
