I watched the RTL4 and NOS news this morning (for those not familiar with these channels: they are Dutch TV-channels) to get a glimpse of the State of The Union, as presented by Pres. Bush last night. Well, what can I say, it couldn’t be more clear: the US is gonna attack Iraq no matter what. They don’t need proof or a smoking gun either: “Some have said we must not act until the threat is imminent,” Bush said. “Since when have terrorists and tyrants announced their intentions, politely putting us on notice before they strike?” What this means (in […]
Blogger sucks!
Nice free service I thought. Well publishing something to my page seems hardly possible: although Blogger states “upload successful”, it turns out that checking the FTP log actually states it DID NOT work.. Grrrr…
Where is the smoking gun?
Call me suspicious, but why can’t the UN produce a smoking gun when it comes to the evil empire Iraq? Maybe Iraq isn’t half the threat the US wants the world to believe. On the other hand: if they (they as in ‘the US’) really want a war, you would think they can ‘invent’ the proof they need. Afterall: they were able to blame Lee Harvey Oswald for the murder of John F. Kennedy back in the 60’s. So how hard can it be to forge some documents and convert them into the smoking gun they need? Or plant some […]
USA to act alone?
USA to act alone? Just read this article on CNN (Powell: U.S. prepared to act alone). Is it me or is this whole deal just getting more and more out of control? A collegue of me send me a cartoon about the whole Iraq situation that is rather funny. I will try and add it here (through the magic wonders of FTP). Anyhow: my 2 cents worth: they should have finished the job years ago when Schwarzkopf had the chance. In my opinions (but who’s intrested anyway) this is a darn farce anyway.
Monday Alert: another week coming up!!
Mondays really fuck up my life (pardon my French). I get up in the morning, slowly forcing my body to actually move to the bathroom. Looking back at me on the other side of the mirror, I see some freak with small eyes, exploded hair, yawning like I’m trying to get a new world record. O yeah, it’s Monday alright. Monday tells you 2 things: A. Your weekend is over B. Work, Work WORK! A typical Monday for me looks a bit like this: 7:45am – Starting up movement-coordination brain cells 8:05am – Starting shaving feature (trying not to bleed […]
Welcome to Bloggers@large
Hi, and welcome to my personal Blog (short for weB Log). This is sort of my online diary where you will find my rantings about life. When I had to figure out a name for my blog (not being creative), I just was thinking about the expression: “that criminal is still at large”. So Bloggers at large seemed funny. Then I had to figure out a description for this blog. Well, it seemed appropriate that, since I am from 1967 – generation X – I describe this blog as “Just some rantings from a thirty-something guy, on his way to […]
