2007-05-26 Bicycles In Beijing
Ladies And Gentlemen!
Marc Spoor proudly presents... his brand new scuba diving suit! *tadaa*
It took me five minutes to put it on and I almost cooked when I wore it for the photo. But imagine! My own diving suit! Who would have thought three months ago that today I'd be posting a picture of my own scuba diving suit. Yee ha!

Quote of the day:
"Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away, and you have their shoes."
That's what I call common sense!

I found these videos on YouTube the other day. They are absolutely amazing. If you can't dance: travel. Matt travelled the world and made a "dance" video about it. Later, a huge company found it and decided to pay him for doing it again. Matt's the man!

When I'm driving around in my car, I usually listen to cassettes instead of radio. Yesterday, however, I ran out of cassettes and went back to good old radio waves instead. They played a song that I've never heard before and I liked it instantly. It started
"There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you 'til I die."
In my humble opinion, these are the best lines since "We were moving mountains long before we knew we could...". With a little help from the Internet I found out that it's called "Nine Million Bicycles In Beijing" and sung by Katie Melua. Good voice, but I don't like the video clip too much.

1) That suit is snazzy.
2) That dude was doing more of a jig. And I'm jealous of his travels. And he's a bad dancer.
3) Why did you have to go to the police to show them your new bulb?
1) Thanks a lot! A comment like that is exactly what I was hoping for ;-)
2) He posted a few other videos where he talks about his travels. Coolness.
3) Technically, I didn't. A postcard signed by a car mechanician would have been sufficient. But the police station is just a few meters from where I live, so I decided to save the money for the stamp ;-)
