My guess is he beat you to Disneyland as well. Come to think of it, he beat me too. Looks as if there's a chance i will pass on without visiting the Magic Kingdom or IKEA.

Come to think of it, i've never seen a near Arctic glacier, melting or otherwise.

While I would dissuade a trip to Disneyland (I have gone without) you cannot understand our common humanity without having visited IKEA. Although, like with Disney, I suppose, if you have kids, IKEA is all around you!

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."

Technically, we are all the enemy. Except those living in temperate climates on the energy budget of an average Sri Lankan (i.e., one tenth of average European or American).
