my some days whereabouts
Went to a very nice exhibition today about animals in circuses. How they are tamed and grown.
This exposition started in september last year. Long before the discussion these days in parliament. But that did trigger me to go and see it. Impressive.
This is how it looks now. I’m very happy with it, Not in the least because it is all finished now.
Awesome right?
If you fly once in a while you have to stand the safety video, which is more boring every flight. Here’s something to help you stay awake.
Bet now you remember.
The other day the news on the frontpage was aboutJamie Oliver killing chickens live on television. People were shocked and had tears in their eyes.
His goal was good. You can read about it on the internet everywhere.
The reason I put it here on my blog is that in my newspaper, the NRC, there was an article about it on the same page as a recepe for… yes, chicken!
The problem isn’t losing weight, it’s gaining weight.
From the website of John Walker (klik on diet and nutrition)
He has en engineering approach to the subject that pleasses me.
Suppose you want to take off 10 pounds over two months. Just work out the total calories you have to burn by multiplying the pounds you wish to lose by the calories in a pound of fat, 10 × 3500 = 35000, divide by the number of days in two months, 35000 / 60 ≈ 585, and then you know what to eat less every day. If you know what you burn every day (for me that’s about 2000 calories) you know what to do. It’s as simple as that.
Ok, the site doen’t look sophisticated at all and its all text but then again, its the content that counts. Its noting new too, but to me it’s worth wile reading it again.
You know this, don’t you…
I like that word, procrastination.
Look at his other little movies as wel. They are so cute.
THE movie in the Netherlands at the moment. Dutch film and of international quality I must say.
The other day I went to this movie, everything is love is the meaning of the title.
I loved it. Its a real feel good movie, happy endings all over. Very nice. Not deep at all. Good casting en good playing either.
Go and see it, you’ll spend a very nice two hours. Sometimes you don’t want to think meaningfull thoughts… don’t you?
She: “I’m wating for Mister Right..”
He: “Who isn’t, but what do you do in the mean time…”
The new year has already started.
Very quiet for me, very noisy for the rest of the city.
I wish for all of you that your dreams come true…
Mind you what you wish for.
The other day I saw on TV a really awesome earphone. Not for sale in most of Europe and certainly not in Holand.
What to do if you want it anyways. Look on Marktplaats.nl. The Dutch version of E-Bay. And YES, there it was and for half of the price of the new one.
And it was for me, obviously. I went for it yesterday. The seller lives in Amsterdam, Sloterdijk. Only an hourly drive on a Sunday.
It is not only looking very good but also reduces the surround noice. So even with the radio tuned on in the car, people can hear me now. Great!
