promises, promises... I trust a brit with refreshing freedom from chains like I trust a 3 week old haggis not to collect bottle-glass fly maggots.

Iceland isn't a member of the EU.They're a member of the EEA,which is kinda like the EU,but not the EU itself.

Let’s see. Iceland gets

- to default on its debt
- stay out of the EU

Sounds like a slam dunk win-win.

Now, if only I could work out something similar with my mortgage and the Obama/Pelosi/Reed trainwreck.

President Ólafur Grimsson stunned the world’s financial community by refusing to sign the repayment schedule into law. Instead, he said that the matter would be decided in a referendum among Iceland’s 243,000 voters.

If those voters approved that bailout, they would be enslaving themselves. They cannot possibly pay that kind of money back in one or two generations...
