Interbellum

Posted by Rob (#1) on March 30, 2006 11:32 CEST

While I do not believe I am the perfect man for the army, I might not be able to avoid service once the next World War breaks out. Fortunately, unless a luring psychobilly girl is considered sexist, my ink no longer seriously conflicts with the US army tattoo policy:

"The army is America. We are America's sons and daughters. American's sons and daughters are getting tattoos," Lt Col Bryan Hilferty at the Pentagon said.

Wicked. But shouldn't a European bloke like me fight for Holland and England first, not being an American son? Sure. But I'm afraid the Anglosphere and other free nations will not take a serious stance against the mullahs, Saudi royalty and other scum seeking to substitute sharia for freedom. Not in time to save Europe anyway. Slogans like 2030 - then we take over have moved from back alleys to t-shirts in Europe. Europeans have been murdered for sharing a nationality with cartoonists. Not just Iran, but also Saudi Arabia is getting nukes.

I'm starting to feel what the interbellum must have felt like.

Back from Scandinavia

Personal

Scandinavia rules. Sure, a pint of beer costs 51 NOK (€6.50/£4.45/$7.65) and a pack of 20 fags sets one back 90 NOK (€11.45/£7.85/$13.50), but Scandinavia rules. The air is fresh. The gals are lovely, loose and bendy. The blokes are morons, but that only makes me look better in front of girls. Yup, I quite like it up north.

Flew into Copenhagen Thursday morning, called Kirsten to wish her mom a happy birthday, got a new tattoo at Baby Lou's, went to Malmö for the HorrorPops tour opening and even got a few hours of sleep between 5 and 8. On Friday I flew to Oslo, walked around with Left Alone and danced a bit more during their performance and of course during the HorrorPops' performance as well. I got the impression that I could've pulled but with a 7am flight it didn't seem like a good idea. In case the blonde girl chatting me up ever reads this: du har pene øyne and I'm truly sorry.

As said, took a flight back to Amsterdam early Saturday morning. Back to work for a couple of weeks now.. and I'll see everyone again in The Hague on the 6th!
