It has been snowing on and off for about a week, which is apparently quite unusual for Malmö. The ocean currents tend to keep Skåne's climate rather mild despite its Northern location. Although I read that the North Atlantic Oscillation is negative this year. That means that all the cold arctic air is floating down from the north. There are only 2 good things to do in cold weather. Honestly I haven't been doing either of them, and most people I know can only manage to get one of them accomplished.
We went to see a hockey game the other night. The arena in Malmö is incredibly nice, but there were very few fans in attendance. Perhaps the lack of fan revenue is the reason that advertising was on every conceivable surface.
Should you ever attend a hockey game I would recommend attending with a Canadian. They are invaluable when it comes antidotes about fans getting killed by rogue pucks, brutal eastern european hockey league fights, and explaining what the hell icing actually is. Thanks Justin.
*side note. The Swedish hockey league does not allow fighting. If you drop your gloves then you are ejected from the game. snooze.
Due to the recent media fallout from the whole Wikileaks fiasco I've decided not to pursue a career in diplomacy. It appears that international espionage isn't what it used to be. Instead I have decided to try out for my local terror organization. The opportunities for a terrorist conspirator seems like a relatively viable option in todays cutthroat job market. And getting a salary paid in virgins is always an attractive option. Although I am a little concerned about the lack of life insurance and 401K options.
Terrorists don't have blue eyes, you poser.
