It wasn't the best of weather when I made a little trip to Lelystad today... The ship more looked like one from Pirates of the Caribbean...

Mbeki is Guilty of murder.

Guilty of denying the AIDS disaster in South Africa - killing millions. Guilty of protecting the emigrants in South Africa - endangering millions and guilty of letting Mugabe stay in Zimbawbe - throwing a country to poverty and ruins.

Goodbye Frank

 At the reception to say goodbye to my dearest friend Frank van der Heijden from ABN AMRO in Nieuwegein  they used a color coded card system to process all the thousands of people they expected who wanted to speak to Frank. I didn't had much time and fixed all the colors so I could speak to Frank at once and be off to Amsterdam right away (on my new bike of course)

Heinz commercial

The aim of the commercial is to insinuate that the product "tastes as if you have your own New York deli man in your kitchen." But after 200 people complained Heinz pulled the commercial of the air. Guess no more Heinz ketchup - I will use an other brand from now on.

Yeah!

I drove past Honda-Amsterdam this morning and couldn't help noticing that something shiny white was standing on the pavement. It turned out my new bike! And I can pick it up tomorrow! :-))))

While driving my motorbike today I passed the Bunkers of the great Atlantikwall build during WWII near Haarlem on the west coast of Holland. After 60 years not much has changed with these bunkers - they are way to strong to be removed...
