Norwegian Millionaires

 

Norwegian families found out that they were worth millions on January 9. The pension fund is invested in the taxes of oil refiners. The Norwegians have so much money that they are called paper millionaires. We don't have this much money because of taxes. Plus gas prices keep going up.

Insane Waterslide

Verrückt is the world's biggest waterslide located at Schlitterbahn Water Park in Kansas City, Missouri and was designed by Jeff Henry. It is even bigger than the world record holder, which is Brazil's Insano. While the Insano is 14-stories high, Verrückt is 17-stories high. 'Wizard of Water', or Jeff Henry, has made many strange attractions. I would love to go on this ride because I love rollercoasters and I also love waterslides and this insane waterslide is like both of them combined.
