A very funny evening with Andre van Duin

It was now or never: I could get the very best seats in Care theater to watch the latest Andre van Duin Revu. I didn't expect much but is was a blast. Van Duin is still very very funny - creates an instant warm feeling in the theater and even his side kick Ron Brandsteder did a good job. An evening not to forget.

Complicated

My IWC Da Vinci is one of the most complicated watches and I am always amazed that it "knows" when a year is a leap year and February 29 days. There must be one tiny wheel in there which keeps track...

Knight Rider is back!

It is a 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR - better then the old kit, but still your typical American Muscle Car: huge engine, terrible driving... :-)
The pilot was fun - let's see what this series brings us.

Gays for Obama

For the first time in any presidential campaign, let alone a primary an LGBT specific message appeared in an ad.
This ad was published in Gay publications in Ohio and Texas. There will be change is the USA, This proves it I guess.

On/Of the bike

Trying to ride a bike has it ups and downs. Why trying some new manouvres I lost control of the bike and came to a complete halt at the street...

40 years ago...

In an old shoebox at my moms' I found this old kindergarten picture. I am trying to recover and to restore it...

Not so sharp anymore

What the F happened with Sharper Image? (They filed for bankruptcy today). It always has been one of my must go to stores. OK I didn't buy anything - uh maybe nobody did... ;-)

Birthday present

From Merel en Marijn I received a great Craft Thermal long sleeved crew for on the bike. It helps to keep me warm and comfy during these cold days...

Simple: excellent anual report website from Philips.


Philips published his anual report 2007 with a special website. This is een high tech way which shows that Philips is really making progress with innovation. I really like their latest introductions in terms of design and functionality.

Hmmm...

Across the street from our hotel is the Victoria & Albert Museum which has one of the finest decorative art collections in the world including a Leighton and some Jacob Sang glasses.

The 39 steps as comedy

The 39 steps is a new comedy which uses John Buchan's story and Alfred Hitchcock adaptation if it. Only 4 actors play all the roles while using minimal stage props. It was really fun.

A (short) weekend in London

The weather in London was terrific so it was time to (re) visit some nice sites (Tower) and to do some serious shopping. The first ever Abercrombie in Europe on Burlington was so crowed that we decided to leave the hour long queue for the cashiers. Jermynstreet was nice and so was Lilly White sports department store.

Parties


Bingo!

Joop van den Ende, good for more than $2 billion and ine of the richest persons on this planet, won the Bingo yesterday. He won a brand new Mitsubishi ($15.000). Unfortunately for him: his own company organized the Bingo, so he cannot collect his prize. Poor Joop, I guess he is doomed to keep on driving his Maybach instead... :-)
