I haven’t seen the movie Flight 93. It didn’t appeal to me at all, as if such a tragic story would ever seem appealing. I don’t know why, but it just seemed too soon. People who have seen it have told me to go watch it. They called it inspiring and fitting for the events. [...]

I just found the company ecurie25 which offers fractional ownership of a super-car. A great idea because who wouldn’t want to drive a super-car 30 to 40 days a year for a fraction of the price? (we are talking 6600 Euro a year) And when I’m saying super-cars, they really are the super cars that [...]

I’m a big fan of YouTube videos. You have to sift through all the videos made by attention whores and just plain nut cases, but then you often find some great stuff there. Even if it’s from good old-fashioned TV it can still be funny.
Here is a round-up of some of the best videos I [...]

I must be honest, the first time I viewed the documentary Loose Change it got me thinking about if 9/11 could have been a conspiracy. I skipped the fact checking of the claims made in the documentary, and went straight to the big question: who would benefit?
Seriously, if any government or organization (rouge or not-rouge) [...]

I’ve been slacking with keeping-up with my blog a bit. About two weekends ago Veere hosted the yearly Van Loon Hardzeildagen which is an event where historic sail ships called Hoogaars gather and race each other. Every year we take some time to walk down to the docks (which are only about 100 yards away) [...]

Can you feel it? It’s soft and somewhat mushy underneath our tushy. It can only be one thing…the bubble is back! I’ve been waiting for this moment for some time now – after all it’s been almost five years since our last bubble exploded, it’s about time we see some action again.
All the signs are [...]

I’ve mastered the English language fairly okay so far. When in the US people really don’t notice I’m from Europe, they notice I don’t speak like the locals do, but can’t place the accent (usually they guess I’m from the north-east – thankfully my host-parents never let me pick-up the Southern accent from KY and [...]

There was a time comedy on TV was filled with sitcoms like The Cosby Show, Family Ties, and Who’s The Boss. Sure at the time it might have been the epitome of TV comedy, but now the laugh reel, dinky sets, and fully scripted moves and lines are funnier than the comedy itself.
Now most TV-shows [...]

We all want to be different. Now that the economy is going better and better more companies are going the extra mile again to differentiate themselves from the crowd. IT companies in The Netherlands for example are keeping their job interviews at car dealerships again so the newly hired people can immediately select their company [...]

The elevator pitch is in a world of its own. It takes a combination of sales talent, dedication, and true belief in your idea. I watched this video on which entrepreneurs give their elevator pitch to an investment company at The Next Web conference. Most of them are horrifying to watch. So what constitutes a [...]
