Tell me about Sweden

[Knarkarplanka]

I´m from Sweden and I´m going to Texas later in the summer and will stay there for a whole year.
It would be nice to know what americans think and know about Sweden.

So please, tell me what you think and know!

I know someone that's from Sweden. His father owns a baked goods company in Sweden. I just happen to live in a town that was founded by swedish natives back in the late 1800's

City Of Kingsburg


It's a nice quiet town. Very small, but I've got Comcast HSI and digital cable

Located between Norway and Baltic Sea, neutral during both World Wars, thus reached a very standard of living and has very high life expectancy, majority of population connected to internet via broadband, and blond people.

I know that everyone throws it out there as the model for succesful socialism even though the system is slowly bankrupting the country...

 

Oh, forgot something very important, you guys sold heavy equipment and ball bearings to the Nazi's during WWII thus defeating our efforts at destroying Germany's industrial war machine.

:thumbsdown:

Apparently really beautiful women there. I believe he was looking for some of our own BELIEFS of the place, such as my belief that America is a terrible place full of indecent humans and stupid fuqs, may or may not be true, but its my belief. He wasn't looking for facts about how much they gross per year or whether or not they did this in that war.
