Off topic I guess... But, out of curiosity, I looked up what they eat there. Boy would I lose weight there!

Beats watching paint dry, at the moment. :)

I'm curious, why would you lose weight there?

Lol, I see what you mean:

Looks like something they fished out of a sulfuric hot pool. And not even a few drops of gravy on what looks to be mashed potato?

Someone needs to open a Popeye's in Iceland! People fight over their chicken sandwiches for a reason!

That’s life. Sad, but boomers will be remembered for our music. Many teens today love our music. My granddaughters do.

[[“Like watching paint dry”]]

What? You don’t like watching paint dry? You’re weird!

“it is highly unlikely that houses need to be invacuated”

Invacuated - interesting word. As in, we’ve been invacuated in our homes for a year so a “crisis” wouldn’t go to waste.

“Then that Sunday morning everyone was surprised..especially when the ash cloud came through.”

And fleeing sasquatch reports were numerous, but that never gets talked about... (snark).

Now THAT, is interesting. I’ve been to enough pig pickings to observe the attraction to scraping away gums and tongues... it gets gnarly, but the hardcore love headmeat.

Actually, Iceland was in the news a while ago for (re 2008) tackling its banking crisis. Unlike a lot of other countries it tackled it by letting its big banks fail, several years of checking for irregularities throughout the banking sector, and sending people to jail for as much as 3 or 4 years. The link below is a fascinating analysis of how they turned their crisis around, how they did NOT follow less successful reactions in Europe and the US, which will allow the same troubles to burst out again in the future. They had to work on improving their tourism business since big companies are unlikely to want to deal with their careful governance policies. Tourism now is 3 times larger than it was before 2008. There are lessons here.

No, the socialist regime scapegoated banks, and that’s all there is to it.

I lived in the Tri-Cities at that time. We barely got any ash since the prevailing winds took it more north east. But those upside down sand dune looking clouds were pretty awesome

I hope you read the article before commenting. I tried to find one that had some substance.

None of them have substance, what I said is exactly what did happen.
