    happy midsummers day

    Maybe it's tomorrow?

    Anyway, it's celebration time in here, perhaps the biggest party weekend in this country. People go to their cabins, do sauna and beer 48/h straight and then have a heart attack.

    I'll be spending this year peacefully with few of my friends, nothing elaborate. It's good though, because I'm a bit tired and in need for a peaceful time, just drink some beer and sit down and enjoy. Suits me perfectly this time around anyway.

    Well... have a happy one

    In da butt.

    Enjoy it!

    It is certainly not midsummer here.............
    I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

      We don't need a midsummer celebration. Our days are long enough.

        Raining like hell in here, happy midsummer. Have some strawberries though that will lighten up the day.

          In Quebec (maybe Canada in general)we have this idea that we're a "Northern" Country, because of the harsh winter.
          It can be argued in terms of climate, but in terms of pure latitude (so for effects like length of day, that depend on latitude and not climate), we're not that northerly.

          For example, even Quebec City is south of Paris, and Ottawa would be in Southern France of Northen Italy, in terms of latitude.

          Anybody in London experiences longer day in summer than almost anybody in Quebec, (and that's not speaking of evil Fins).

                  In fact it is so wintery down here that Queenstown has had to delay the opening of Winterfest due to too much snow!

                    Why in the world is it called "midsummers day." It's not the middle of summer but the beginning.

                      I think it comes from Summer Solstice - the longest day.

                      But as this was a "pagan" celebration it was renamed.

                        Longsummer's Day makes sense, then. Or even Firstsummer's Day.

                            Whatever you pagan hating logicals, is it not enough that we dance around a giant leafy phallus and drink extraordinate amounts of booze?
