Botox Party

Sunday, January 28th, 2007

“A what?” Yes, a botox party. Like a Tupperware party but just a little different…

In these modern times there a people that invite other people, like friends and family, for a botox party.

When using botox I think you are stupid, but okay that is my opinion. In the case that you really want that, just have your own fun, go to a clinic to have it done.

I saw a program on tv of a group of friends and people that know each other. They invited a adviser, who brought a doctor (can I see your license, please!) to do the job right away, in the kitchen!!

“We are having a really enjoyable evening and I thought why not?!” a young guy says into the camera.

Yes, it is quite normal to put a unstable neurotoxic into you face. I thought that it could damage you brain…
You are right. In this case there is no way damage anything, there is nothing!!!

Jimbo is a pathologic(al) liar…

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

I never did follow Jimmy Carter’s carreer, I must admit. I knew he got a Nobel Peace Price, but more mistakes have been made there.

Now he has published a book that has the title: Peace Not Apartheid. As I heard the title I frowned my eyebrows. After hearing parts from the book I made a comparison with some high rank dutch politicians (former prime minister Van Agt for instance) that have formed a form of latent anti-Semitism or anti-Zionism, like Jimbo does. It is at least biased, but probably worse.

There are so many lies in the book: Page 62: When I met with Yasir Arafat in 1990, he stated, “The PLO has never advocated the annihilation of Israel. The Zionists started the ‘drive the Jews into the sea’ slogan and attributed it to the PLO.

I was drawn to this lie: We all KNOW by fact that this is not the truth!

I am not going into it deeply because others do that much better that I could ever do. And next to that I must be honest that I did not read the book. But also in this case: others did the (good) job!

Read on at CAMERA. They made a roundup of all criticism on Jimbo.

Something related: Jimmy Carter Center gets Arab money. And I mean loads of it…

Palm adventures – part 3 (or four?)

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

[I started this fourth part end december and was too much fed up with the whole thing to write on with it...]

I lost count…

That is our policy” – is is a frequently used sentence in the USA, I am sure. It think they see it as a magic word: policy. To my opinion it is an ANTI-magic word.

This is part-I don’t know in the Palm Treo 680 from the USA saga. For earlier parts look below!

After having trouble to become Europe’s first COPPER Palm Treo 680 owners, my best friend Servaas and I were prepared to bug his bil (brother in law) to help us out.

We did ask him to order two COPPER Palm Treo 680 at the Palm Treo store with an American creditcard.

We are still empty handed. The TWO orders we had were dumped by Treo Store and we still don’ know why.
We did order two times because we both wanted to get the Palm Music Pack (for BOTH phones) for free with our order.
After a call we got the answer that there were no copper ones anymore and thats why our order was just skipped.
After that still lots and lots of copper treo’s have been shipped… Huh?!?!

Still empty hands, okay, a grey phone on its way from the States.

[27-01-2007]
End of the story is that we both have an American, but graphite Palm Treo 680. Taken from the States by my buddies bil.
We were still waiting for copper Treo’s to buy if available in Europe. No one could tell us when the first ones would be there.
But last week we did hear that Palm is stopping the production of the copper 680…

I could buy one at ebay, but I am really so sick of it!!!

[and I don't even talk about the (severe!) battery and other problems]

Palm Treo 680 plans

Friday, December 15th, 2006

I was planning to be one of the first European owners of the COPPER Palm Treo 680.

It is not going to be like that…

Around Christmas I will receive a graphite (read: GREY) Palm Treo 680 from the USA, while I could have had one from November 22nd in The Netherlands.

I will tell you later how this could be possible…

I tell you, between you and me: it is that I don’t like pyromanics!!!

New, extra extra GREEN!

Friday, November 10th, 2006

With my buddy Servaas I did write for The Crab for quite some time . He started it and I jumped in. We were having loads of fun.

The Crab will relaunch today @ 18:00 CET

Why? We want to be GREEN!!! Nothing more, nothing less!

Tell the world ! The Crab is now about environmental issues, health and such, more than we already did.
Let us tell you how to go green in your life. And you tell us! Please?!

Olympic money

Olympic Rings
Almost a week ago an article in the newspaper struck my attention. The finals for swimming are definitively put early in the morning on the Summer Olympics in Beijing in 2008.

Not for programming reasons, but for the fact that the American commercial network NBC is paying two billion (read: 2.000.000.000) dollar to have the finals (and parts of the Winter Olympics of 2006) in the US living rooms on prime time!!
Swimming finales are preferably in the early evening because of physiological point of view. This seems to be the case with all international finals.

I am not interested in watching sport, but in this case the soul of the Olympics is sold for a huge amount of MONEY.
