Interesting about the happy countries. Wonder what contributes most to their happiness. Hope you have a happy weekend.

ReplyDeleteThis is slightly off topic, but related to the discovery of so many dinosaur eggs. Now that scientists have the complete DNA of the Woolly Mammoth, I'm curious as to how they'll use it.
ReplyDeleteI'd never heard of Loretta Lynch, but what a wonderful accomplishment she has to her credit!
Being Swiss-Italian by heritage, it makes me quite "happy" to discover my relatives come from there.
