According to a recent representative poll in Austria:

19% are interested in politics (2004: 26%)
48% keep up somewhat with the main headlines (2004: 48%)
33% don't care about/follow politics at all (2004: 19%)
Well, it makes sense.  Why would you care about politics when scumbag lawyers will just destroy anything you try and improve.
Btw, another study shows that the loss of interest is much higher among academics.
Very understandable, because noone cares what they have to say about anything, and even when they're asked, the reply is inevitably 'Topple capitalism!  Execute the running dogs!'
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Does anyone know of a better word than commemorative for something to do with an anniversary of an event?
Commemoration to me just sounds....kinda related to something having died. Has a somewhat somber sound.

Thesaurus ?  :unsure:

Woah !!  Who know there might be a thesaurus online. :blink:

Just adds to it really. Those words also carry the sad distinction.
Jubilee is a bit royal.

I don't know. I don't find "celebratory" to be too sad. Maybe when I celebrate my 50th birthday in four years.

He should be out chopping wood near his remote cabin in the mountains where he lives alone.

What sport does he play?
I'm guessing something mainstream but he really does look like it should be something obscure...hurling or the like.

He's signing an American football Tyr, I wonder what he could play...?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
