hahaha Kim. Me too ... a bit.
Hi Kim,
I wonder what Algorithm these Kids at UofM used to come up with this ranking but I find it very bizarre. I am an Albanian living in Canada, but I find that people here complain even more than Albanians in general. If it wasn't for the political discontent in Albania, we're a pretty mild laid-back and overall happy people.
Colombia is the third happiest in the world? I mean I would never go there in fear of being kidnapped. And if Quebec was a country would it be in absolute dead last spot?
These thing is so skewed that it's not even worth analyzing.
P.S.90% of all statistics are wrong. :-D

too funny! I kind of feel more happy in Albania than here at times. Yes balance is a good thing, huh! Have a great week! We are spending it at the lake of the ozarks, here in missouri. My parents live here. It has been really great here so far!
Huggz....Kimi
Of course statistics can be used to prove anything you want, but I don't think they were out to prove something (after all the US is not in the top ten).
I kind of agree with you ITS- Canadians do seem to complain a lot more than Albanians do, but my stress level is lower when I'm here in Canada. It's not only the political situation, but the enviroment that really concerns me.
WOW! That's very telling, Kim. Very interesting. I can totally agree about the Netherlands.
Hey, congratulations on your (upcoming) new condo in Toronto! It's a wonderful city and you are going to be so HAPPY there!
