Harry Potter and the political matters!

We are waiting for the last book of the Harry Potter series that won't be out this upcoming summer... Americans have reinvented the titles featuring the current events... Why not?!

Magic Bullet: a full-of-crap head!

It's still here! The Magic Bullet is now available outside the TV network! Don't miss it (you can't miss it anyway...but just in case). I posted this for some of my Belgian friends... ;)

Two thumbs up and your body down !!!!!

I watched this impressive movie yesterday, and I figured I would cut down on fast food! It's amazing how we destroy our body step by step -day by day! No doubt, Amercica is sinking under the weight of greasy food and fat people! I would say that it's even really scary! A two-thumbs-up movie that perfectly depicts the whole situation!

Diet Coke Plus

Starting from Spring, you can enjoy the same great taste of Diet Coke but with 5 of the minerals and vitamins that your body needs daily included in the beverage... What an update! I'm thinking about trying it... It may be better than normal Diet Coke for such a Coke drinker.... I dont think this new product has already been put on the European Market. I guess you guys will see it pretty soon in the supermarkets!

Flint Center: General Wesley Clark

Yesterday, Paola and I went to the Flint Center to see General Wesley Clarck who had a Celebrity Forum. The Flint Center is located on the De Anza Campus, althought it's on a private property in front of the Sunken Garden. Gen Wes Clark is retired since a couple of years. He is a Democrat and tried to be candidate for the elections; Kerry finally got the opportunity to get the presidency against G.W. Bush. He's got really nice ideas, but his ideas are Democrat, and therefore, not applicable!

Parking for Belgians only !

They pick whatever cool stuff and they make parking spots for them...It's a joke, but I remember I had one from Salem last year...Cool stuff !!!

Only in the US!!!!

As far as I know, we'll never see that in Europe! They have a hole building in San Francisco as well as people in the streets promoting the Message sent by the sect!

Americans learn French

"Au printemps, chez les Belges...
Le temps est nuageux.
Il fait frais".
"During Spring time, in Belgium...
The weather is cloudy.
It is chilly."
They even talk about Belgians in textbooks. Isn't that so cool? The information is not always accurate, but, still, it's fun to read!

Amercicans -whatever you may think- are more advanced!

At De Anza, there are different kinds of parking spots. Student carpool: 2 or more people in a car have priority to park their car (the spots are closer to the buildings). Alternative fuel vehicle: even closer to the buildings, these spots are reserved for people who drive the brand new types of cars that produce less polution. Staff parking: you know what that is! Besides, there are the regular "disabled", "police", etc.

I love you

Click here No comment!

Unbelievable !!!!!!!!

Click here to discover what a Belgian family hides behind the façade of their house! It's simply incredible! Although I feel sorry because the report is in French and filmed by the French television, I could resist! Serge has got 30 children from three different women: 2 of them (his wife and his sister in-law) live in his house and the third one has to live somewhere else because of a lack of room. Both parents are unemployed and they manage to feed their kids with only 3000 € a month! When they go shopping they need 170 lbs of potatoes, 9 lbs of pastas, 7 bottles/day of milk! It's just crazy! They live in a trhee-room house where the bedrooms look more like dorms than real kids' bedrooms!

License plates

In the US, your are not forced to have a license plate at the front of your car, and you can even choose what's gonna be written on it! Isn't that amazing?! For instance, the owner of this Mini Cooper S picked "DI MINI" standing for "THE MINI"...Easy to remember! I've seen other funny stuff and even a little cheesy sometimes such as "V loves M"...Others even put names of sports like "GOLF"...Interesting! At the front, it is often seen that the owner put his/her favorite baseball or football team as his/her license plate! Much more excinting than our boring red numbers!

Fuck Iraq, hot topic!

Paola and I saw this car with the American Flag and "fuck Iraq" written on it! Americans don't fear anything obviously!

Notre-Dame de Namur

Notre Dame de Namur, that's the name of a university located in California! Can you believe that? Impressive, right?! Namur is the first city in the Waloon Region...

Let's save up!

I don't remember for what poroduct it was, but there is one thing I perfectly remember: these Americans are crazy! On this item, you could save 4 cents. I can't believe it! That's how they can get so rich! They keep saving up...And 4 cents in one shot, that's really impressive! So, I really don't understand why Belgians keep complaining when we offer them discounts going up to 50%! OK...here there isn't any "sales time", but still! I'd rather save a lot at a time then saving 4 ridiculous cents everytime I go to buy a new pair of shoes!

On la connaissait....

Un homme se balade dans Central Park à New York. Soudain, il voit un pitbull attaquer une petite fille. Il se précipite, attrape le chien et finit par le tuer, sauvant ainsi la gamine. Un policier qui a vu la scène arrive et lui dit :
- "Vous êtes un héros. Demain, tout le monde pourra lire à la une des journaux : " Un courageux New-yorkais sauve la vie d'une enfant."
L'homme répond : - "Mais ... je ne suis pas de New York !"
Eh bien on lira : "Un courageux Américain sauve une petite fille... "
"Mais... je ne suis pas Américain !"
"Et qu'est ce que vous êtes alors ?"
"Je suis Pakistanais."
Le lendemain, les journaux titraient : " Un extrémiste islamiste massacre un chien américain sous les yeux horrifiés d'une petite fille. "
