If you want to be happy, move to Fiji

In Fiji there has been a report that has shown that Fiji is the happiest nation in the world. Of course this comes from a Fiji based website an it could be construed as propaganda. Also the study shows that Nigeria came in second. Considering all of the protesting in Nigeria recently over the loss of their oil subsidy, the criteria of this scientific poll might be able to be called into question.

Another issue with the scientific nature of this poll might be the lack of questioning of Fiji's most famous golfer, Vijay Singh. Singh is not among the 89% that are happy at this moment. He's the exact opposite of happy and taking it out on Rory Sabbatini's caddy. Granted the caddy walked over Singh's putt line, but still, man he was mean. It could have been worse; it could have been Annika Sörenstam stomping all over the green before the putt. Then Singh would have unleashed some cursing that involved sexism as well as berating a person whose profession is basically akin to being a golfer's butler.
