Laughing Lhursday*

Happy New Year, dear friends!
May the best of 2025 in 2026 become the worst! 
I have decided to emigrate to Greenland and soon become a Greenlander, as according to my reliable source, every Greenlander will soon be offered $2 million if they agree to vote in a referendum to join the (dis)united States of America as its 52nd state**.

* [For first time visitors]: 
Typo in the title? Nah. It's just that 
I would not let a tiny T spoil an avantgardistic alliteration.
 
** In case anyone wonders: The 51st state will, of course, become Canada.

    1. It may sound funny, but remember my words when such an offer comes along in the near future. Even two million dollars for each of Greenland's approximately 57,000 inhabitants would be peanuts for any of the perversely rich... and a bigger bargain than the Alaska ‘deal’ was at the time.

    1. I'm speculating that I'll be offered three million to vote against it. ;-)
      Lots of health would be wonderful, Carme. Thank you.
      And a happy new year to you and the yours.
      Abraçades!

  4. Hi Sean - well that's good ... we can meet up somewhere - perhaps on Hans Island ... halfway between Greenland and Canada ... I wrote about it when I was over in Canada in 2018 ... I is for (Canadian) Islands ... my piggy-money-box could do with the odd penny ... but a good laugh together would be extra cheery - Happy New Year - cheers Hilary

    1. Ah, no new Whisky-War, Hilary! I intend to let an inuksuk do my job. ;-)
      That would allow us to laugh in warmer climes.
