Went to the Poteet Strawberry Festival yesterday near town. Nothing quite like wandering a Texas fairground with a gordita in one hand and a turkey leg in the other.

Commemoration of the Katyn massacre. It ended in heated debate between photographers over who should get the best position.

My foot has fallen asleep.

No.  He's also asleep.  While at the gas station a woman asked me for a light then asked when the gas station closed.  I took down her license plate.

Maybe you should put it back up.

[Razgovory]

Need it for the files.

Teacher lockout entering 3rd week. New poll shows that basically all teachers have gone from voting for the center-left coalition government to supporting the extreme left, and 10% the extreme right.

What parties are the extreme right & left?

Was there a reenactment?

Danish Peoples Party (wants to appear social democratic, but hates Muslims, uncivilized people such as the New Zealanders and young people) & and the Unity List (communists, but doesn't want to talk about revolution, aloud).

Was there a reenactment?

20 rows of Polish officers were bound and marched towards a memorial statue, then they covered the Poles in that black banner and fired some shots. I asked a man standing with a Polish flag about it but he was more interested in telling me about his cycling trip on Bornholm.

They don't sound *that* extreme.  At least when compared to other places.

Perhaps not, but Danes aren't usually extreme at anything. I would say that a shift from 80% of all teachers voting for the government to 3% is extreme, though. The conflict is mostly between the teachers and the municipalities, not the government.
