RE: Greetings from Belgium

The cinema’s in Tilburg are verry bad and the others in the
Netherlands are not so good either if you once bin to the
Metropolis.

Ahhh… you should try to sit your butt sore at Cinecitta and then rinse it all away with a nice beer menu at Kandinsky. Tilburg definately has it’s charms, although the cinema in de Heuvel isn’t all that much indeed.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 20-09-02 AT 06:25 PM (GMT)]You guys have no taste whatsoever… The GAZ M21 Wolga. Although i prefer the flat black KGB-variant over this (also very nice)

The East German Volkspolizei-one is an M24, will do as well }>

Kingdom? The last time they had a king was in the late 1700s when they were united in the Rzeszcspospolita with Poland, uniting both states under one crown. It’s a republic now, with rather little remains of it’s former glory as most of it has beens smashed in wars ever since the Polish Partitions which ended the existance of the country until 1918. There are some nice sites to be found though.

Edit: forgot my list, in no particular order:

North Korea
Iraq
US
Mongolia
Iran

This list would probably look different any time you’d ask me this, but generally i like to visit countries in order to make my own opinion of them. Also, i like foreign countries to be differen: it doesn’t make sense to me if i go abroad and end up drinking Heineken and eating at McDonalds. I do like to see more countries than just these – all of them!

Are there countries i don’t like? Yes, there are. However, it has happened three times to me that a country annoyed me so much that i swore never to go back there, but found myself back a year later. So i won’t make that mistake again.

Burning down the White House in 1812 doesn’t count? I guess that makes Canada the world’s most powerful nation.

Edit: Oh, yes, of course! The French weren’t able to help the US back then, if so the Canadians wouldn’t have come close to your proud capital. In that case the president would not have needed to flee away and hide in a bar…

RE: F-80 Tribute

Sorry Phantom, can’t help you there.

But i have a question: during the Korean War, the F-80s quickly transferred to the attack role. However, during those missions the ammo load was reduced (a total of 6*300=1800 rounds could be carried IIRC) because the aircraft had centre of gravity problems in this role. Do you know more about it – did it have problems with pitching up again, or something?

RE: Who is your fav simpsons character?

Have to agree with Vortex: Homer is absolutely brilliant, but a bit too one-dimensional. Sometimes he is way too predictable.

On the other hand, i really like Skyner, Chief Wiggum, Ralph, Martin, Barney Gumble, Abe Simpson, Marge’s sisters, the mayor, superintendent Chalmers… way too many really.
