They have a straight up championship for it in America if you want to join in.

http://sundayriver.com/events-and-activities/events-calendar/north-american-wife-carrying-championship

The winning couple takes home the wife's weight in beer, five times her weight in cash, and an entry into the World Championship, which takes place in Finland the following summer. Each year, the field includes 50 couples with pre-qualification given to the winners of state or regional events.

I hope this sport gets accepted into the summer olympics:

Another thing that owns about finland is they levy income based fines for things like speeding:

One millionaire rear end in a top hat got fined 103k for speeding

That is loving awesome.

Tax records are also accessible by police, so they immediately can look up a rich person's yearly income and worked out the size of the speeding fine.

It's naturally caused lots of whining in right wing cowboy capitalism magazine the Wall Street Journal.

I love my dead gay currency.

Any country that didn't buy into the EU currency utopia idea is laughing really hard right now.

Weak krone is good since it makes Norwegian exports more attractive and also make tourism from stronger currency countries attractive as well.

It's also because the krone is basically any petro correlated currency similar to the canadian loonie

Why is denmark counted as a scandinavian country when it's not a part of the scandinavian peninsula?

because it has nordic culture, language and genetics.
