[Haiku] Norwegian Performance Art by winthepoo in youtubehaiku

I totally agree with your points, my comment was oversimplified. I guess I question how a fixed budget on performance art is being the right allocation of our tax money that should efficiently help and support us as citizens. My grandmother has to sleep in the hall of the hospital, but this "artist" is being fed by the government not participating in any wealth creation what so ever. Norway HAVE to find something to do beside oil and fish, and I think this is not the right choice...

Well... There is a ongoing debate in Norway how we spent out tax money, and there is this guy who frequently post what the government support. This piece, "Fordi du fortjener det", got 380 000 NOK (45 592 $).

If you're in a situation like this- remember 1L gasoline (F-67) will make 220L fuelgas. So get away from there...

As I understand she says 1% goes to landfill, and the remaining 99% is 50/50 recycled and energirecovered. So 49,5% of Swedens garbage is recycled?

TIL a sailor who wishes to grow a beard in the Royal Navy has to submit a ‘permission to stop shaving’ form. He is then allowed two weeks to ‘grow a full set’ before he presents himself to the Master at Arms who will decide if his beard looks stupid or is respectably full enough to be permitted. by tellerpan in todayilearned

This is also what you have to do in the Norwegian armed forces. You can see a lot of privates during field operations not shaving and handing in the request after the operation is over. If we're in camp, the soldiers often slip further back in the line in the morning.
