Congress should repeal the "don't ask, don't tell" law because the
presence of gays in the military is unlikely to undermine the ability
to fight and win, according to a new study released by a
California-based research center.
I know that all along... ;-)

At a benefit auction for young in prison (a actiongroup which supports childeren in prison) I bought this great photograph by Vincent Zedelius - a young Dutch Photographer.
My friend Johanna had a nice and warm interview in The Margriet of this week about her childeren leaving her house and how that made her feel. The article had a great photo of her as well.
I really like the trailer of Hancock - the new movie with Will Smith. I hope that it meet my (high) expectations... (nice tight suit by the way)
Planet Internet is changing its name to KPN (the Dutch Telecom Company) I was wondering what they would do with their SEX planet website. Would it be named SEX KPN? But no... SEX planet will stay SEX planet... :-)
An interesting exhibition in The Stedelijk Museum of photographs of Wolfgang Tillmans.
We moved with Zomoto from our old office at The Herengracht in the Centre of Amsterdam to the North part of Town. It is quite a different surrounding and building. From acient antique to swanky high tech. Just the next step we needed.

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...
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.
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)
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.
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! :-))))
My Prius could be a total loss because of heavy hail fall yesterday. The roof, engine lid and sides of the car are completely ruined. Luckily the Porsche was safely inside the garage...

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...
