10 Reasons the Rest of the World Thinks the U.S. Is Nuts – The Huffington Post
10 Reasons the Rest of the World Thinks the U.S. Is Nuts – The Huffington Post – This spot-on rant might just as well be titled: “10 Reasons Kris Doesn’t Live in the U.S. Anymore.” I am very lucky to live somewhere where my employer has no right to know my reproductive status and no means to attempt to control it. Religious freedom my ass…

What Australians Eat
What Australians Eat – This is pretty shocking stuff (to this caveperson, anyway). As the Snook put it, “The average australian eats 2kg broccoli in a year. I think we eat that in a month.” I was also depressed by this: “When we cook, a Westfield survey found more than half Australians rotate between a repertoire of five meals or fewer.” No wonder bread, junk food, and fries are so popular.

Boxed Wine: Not Just for Your Alcoholic Aunt Anymore | Mr. Money Mustache
Boxed Wine: Not Just for Your Alcoholic Aunt Anymore | Mr. Money Mustache – Hey, Mr. Money Mustache not only comes out in favor of boxed wine, but he also mentions our preferred brand as well – Banrock Station! (I had no idea it was available in the US.) I had to laugh though at the mention of couples who go through “a bottle of wine a week.” Uh, yeah. We go through a fair bit more than that…
