Things I learned on MLK day
By cursory reading, it appears that Iceland has a constitution and government similar to the United States. Iceland also has a population of about 300,000 people. That means the pick-up line there could be, "We've got a lot of work to do to catch up with the United States. Bring your friends." Or perhaps, "What else were you going to do during a 20-hour night?"

Unrelated to Iceland or pick-up lines, I also watched Rollergirls. From what I can gather, a bout consists of two timed halves in which women slam into each other while going round and round on skates. There's a jammer from each team skating through the mess of girls (ideally twice). When the jammer comes around the second time every opponent she passes is worth a point. When she passes all four opponents or gets clobbered, the point is over. I thought I heard something about no punching, but that seems to be a fairly flexible rule. I don't think I need to watch another episode, but the next time the roller derby is in town or I'm in town with a roller derby, I think I need to go. It seemed oddly compelling, and in ways reminded me of Ultimate.
