There`s nothing great about Messi. :D I`d ask where are Mario Kempes, Pasarella, Bati-gol or Caniggia.

Kempes is working for ESPN,Passarella president of River Plate,Batigol and Caniggia retired

I know that (I didn`t knew where Kempes is), what I wanted to say is that before Messi, this players deserve to be mentioned in that list. :)

Mos of them goes out of Albania with false promises, thinking that the will find a great job in Italy or Spain, and they are working behind the roads.

There is an Albanian Mafia very strong, playing with this young women

Top Gear and various comedians, such as Frankie Boyle, Tim Vine, Michael Mcintyre, John Bishop (our very own scouse one).

Nothing else though. The UK is rubbish, which is why I have myself listed as Irish.

I am english, but live in Norway...reason?

Norway has been voted best country to live in by the UN 7 times in the last 9 years (Human development Index). United Kingdom was down in 21st last year. Still wondering why I chose to live in Norway?

Economy crisis? What economy crisis? We have not had any real problems like the rest of the world. And we are not in the EU, so we get to keep all the income from oil and fish sales. Norways oil fond is so massive, that if they shared it evenly among the population...each Norwegian would receive around $12.7 million each.

And if you have ever visited Norway, then you know how expensive it is...well thats because our average wage is higher, so i always feel rich when I go back to England and like a millionaire when I go further south :)

Also, there is under 5 million people in this country, which is less than London. A lot of space, a lot of money. Beautiful girls and fjords. Great food. I can work 3 days a week and make enough money to live comfortably. Equal rights in more or less every way of life. The list is almost endless.

Worlds largest mountain range Himalayas mostly happens to be in India thats worth travelling.

apart from these Taj mahal is part of 7 wonders, http://www.indialine.com/travel/images/jaisalmer-fort.jpg

with some cities like Jaisalmair,Fatehpur Sikri, Delhi having archeological sites in abundance.

The Indians are special in a way that they makes relationship even with strangers & are most times helping.

In my country (aka the annoying little red dot), you can:

- lose half your weight by standing in any sunny area for half-an-hour
- get your skin blackened by standing in any sunny area for hour
- get skin cancer by standing in any sunny area for an hour and a half
- contribute as much as $100 a day to the Government simply by driving
- get to play on exotic beaches made with artificial sand and enjoy the sight of majestic container ships by the shoreline
- have the convenience of being able to vote only for the ruling party during an election
