TODAY'S SWEDEN UPDATE

Annette Gaudreau, noting the photo chosen to illustrate this story about an American-car show in Sweden, asks: "Do Swedes think American guys sit on cars, basically naked, with a bunch of other, basically naked, guys?  Or is that just what Swedes do on their cars?"

In other news from Sweden, we have a story about snakes in a preschool, featuring this key quote: The reptiles have survived in part by munching on toads in the preschool’s basement.

This has been today's Sweden Update.

Those aren't the naked guys I want on MY car... Just sayin'...

And that's a weird place to put the "teasers"* in a "snakes in a preschool" story *(about pedofiles). Today's editors must be smokin' better w@@d than in my day. Pity... (that they're not sharing...)

I wasn't aware that snakes could "munch" anything, much less toads.

Shouldn't that be "The Big Meat 2008 Show"?

I know this blog is far too classy to stoop to catcalls, so I refuse to point out the gorgeous and scantily-clad girl to the mid-right under Highlights. I am also far too sophisticated to have found out that you can't click through and get a larger version of the pic, - no matter how hard I tried someone were to try.

I'm glad I'm not the only one to not try to click through to a closeup of the lady.

"...and in the walls of the building."

And in a totally unrelated story: The Sollentuna reptile park, next to the Vinbäret preschool announced today that several of their prize species dissapeared from their (not there) wall mounted display cases.

Hmmm. Usually American car shows feature mostly-naked women sitting on cars. So we either have here a failure to communicate...or cars appeal to a vastly different demographic in Sweden.

(Note to self: Avoid Swedish car shows.)

[Kathybear]

Wes, exactly what I was going to say. Apparently older women shop for cars in car shows in Sweden. NTTAWWT...

10,000 cars do NOT make it the biggest American car show....try the 405 freeway on a Friday afternoon.
(private note to Dave - very cold, mentioning naked guys in Sweden and then posting THAT photo - ick.)

[insomniac]

[Annie Where-but-here]

"Do Swedes think American guys sit on cars, basically naked, with a bunch of other, basically naked, guys?"

Well, yeah.

Don't they?

[markhh]

Federal Duck....
Then someone didn't try very hard ...

Judging by that picture, and how old that car is, the vinyl seats must have been remarkably hot.
