darned, i missed the wife carrying world championships on 14 july 2001 in sonkajärvi. more at whatsgoingon.com.

and i think i also won't be pulling faces at the gurning competition in egremont, uk. but fortunately, this also can be done online.

btw. i got the inspiration to this entry from a story at orf on. but the editors there are very, very afraid of links. and i wanted links.
