Another Saint Martin's night (Wednesday 12th of November 2008 12:55:00 PM)

very narrow sidewalk, and very irresponsible drivers after dark, ...

Another sting operation, this time in Thailand, Joran's current residence, has revealed that
Joran is now involved in trading women. He arranges prostitutes ...

So, what makes Enkhuizen (the city I live ...

Here's a Dutch word for you all. I know I have done little blogging this past summer, but I am
back now, and it's all down to this one word: "komkommertijd." It literally
translates as "cucumber season", or if you wish to be really ...
(more)Hijack of passion (Saturday 30th of August 2008 09:13:00 AM)
A rather funny thing that happened in my country this week. A Transavia plane headed for Turkey

police made two arrests, a man and a woman, on suspicion of ...

It's official. I live in the region of my country with the highest teen alcoholism and drug
addiction rates. As a result of this I also live in a region with a high teen suicide rate. The
epicenter of this problem apparently consists of two ...
(more)Euthanasia or murder? (Tuesday 26th of August 2008 12:38:00 PM)
An interesting case for those who wish their country would legalize euthanasia. In my country
it is sort of semi-legal, and there still are some teething problems. We now have a case that
could clear up some of the legal problems. A young man was ...

Yes, we have it too, in the Netherlands: a smoking ban in bars, restaurants, and clubs. The ban
commenced yesterday. It's nothing new of course. Many other countries have such bans in place.
Still, knowing the country I live in, the coming months could ...

Mass hysteria. It's always an interesting phenomenon. Especially when it's crushed. This
country has been in such a state for the past two weeks, and yesterday it was all over.
Streets, stores, people's outfits... The color orange reigned supreme for ...

From something about my country that sucks, to something I'm truly ashamed of. We have a
pedophile party in this country. They tried to get into Parliament at the last general
elections, and fortunately failed to raise the 570 signatures required to get ...

The past few months I've been part of a discussion, on and off, about the quality of Dutch

explaining to do, as we all agree, including myself, ...

People just aren't social enough, are they? Whether you walk thru a crowd on the street, walk
past someone in the frozen dinners aisle, or sit next to a stranger on the plane... It's hard
for these strangers to even utter a 'good morning', or ...
(more)Police dogs (Friday 25th of April 2008 01:12:02 PM)
The Dutch police have to cope without their dogs for the next few months, maybe years.
Apparently the use of police dogs in solving murders is an unreliable method. This isn't the
fault of the dogs themselves however. It's the cops themselves who are ...
(more)What? 200 years? When? Tomorrow? (Monday 21st of April 2008 12:30:00 PM)
They couldn't stop talking about this on the radio, last Saturday. An Amsterdam newspaper, Het
