Oddly relaxing sort of natural disaster

I find myself endlessly amused by the news today (what little they show in between the coverage of the Queen's birthday (I dag er det Margrethe II af Danmarks fødselsdags, hurra hurra hurra - hun sikkert sig en gave får som hun har ønsket sig i år med dejlig chokolade og kager til)). I can't help being amazed at the stuff people are thinking up to get around today. Planes grounded? Take the train! Trains booked full for a few days? Take the bus! Rent a car! (sorry, fresh out) Take a taxi to Paris! Rent a limousine to get you to Germany!!!

Seriously, I'm just waiting for the horse drawn carriages to be put into service. Maybe tomorrow?
