I'm not sure where this is, but I believe it's in one of the Scandinavian countries. Where ever it is, I've watched it several times over the course of the last year or so when I first found the video. Such a lovely young lady...and I can sit and watch somebody work for hours! -grin-

Sit Down
Take a load off.
You Are a Country Chair |
You are down to earth and very practical. You like things that last, and you always look for craftsmanship. Some may call you old fashioned, and it's true that many of your favorite things come from deep in the past. You like to slow down and live life right. You believe that mistakes get made when we rush. You believe that most things in life are a waste of time. You focus your attention on what truly matters. |

Satisfaction - The Rolling Stones
In the early morning hours of May 7, 1965, in a Clearwater, Florida motel room, a bleary-eyed Keith Richards awoke, grabbed a tape recorder and laid down one of the greatest hooks of all time: the opening of "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction." Just three days later, the Stones took the song into the Chess studios in Chicago and completed it on May 12 after a flight to L.A. and an eighteen-hour recording session at RCA.
40 yrs. later, the song is ranked near the top of many greatest rock hits lists. Rolling Stone (which ranks it #2 on their list of "500 Greatest Songs of All Time") wrote this about the song: "That spark in the night...was the crossroads: the point at which the rickety jump and puppy love of early rock and roll became rock."
A performance in 1965, one of the earliest known recordings of a Stones live concert.

Titanic Sums of Money
It cost 7 million dollars to build the Titanic and 200 million to make a film about it.
There have been several Titanic-related posts in this blog.
Some movie trivia: Two For One, None For All
A funny video with lines from the movie: Titanic: Rose vs Jack
A quiz: More Than One Thing In Common
And a rant (and I re-used the graphic on this post): A Titanic Gripe
