Just off the boat. 124; Comments RSS. Forget everything I said: Sluseholmen cancels out all Danish efficiency. Posted on January 10, 2009. Danish efficiency is bollocks. I’m over it. Admiration has been replaced by frustration and wonder. For almost a year, we’ve been living in the brand spankin’ new Sluseholmen neighborhood. It’s perfect in theory:. Beautiful new building blocks surrounded by man-made canals, a la Amsterdam. Stunning views over the water. A street for shops (notice I say for, not with).

Rucksack Wanderlust: November 2008
http://rucksackwanderlust.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

sounds like fun: July 2008
http://soundslikefun.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
I tend to agree to things because they, at least initially, sound like fun. Hence, I write, study, teach, and try to make sense on occasion. This is a spot for stuff I've written, stuff I'm thinking about, and generally stuff that, well, sounds like fun to me. Tuesday, July 15, 2008. Thursday, July 10, 2008. The American leader, who has been condemned throughout his presidency for failing to tackle climate change, ended a private meeting with the words: "Goodbye from the world's biggest polluter.".
