It IS the first time but now I said NO to the national tv 555 action. NO WAY! Not a cent! That country has spend TRILIONS OF $ on nuclear bombs. That money would not only saved these people when spended on `Dutch` dikes technology but would also make my monthly donations to Novib/Oxpam, Red Cross, Amnesty, ....,..... etc, lesse needed!!!!!
Yes I know, those people are in need! But those people voted for those governments spending trillions for nuclear research and testing... so... sorry for those people who even couldn´t vote but would vote for those nuclear bombs.
Crual, isn´t it?

Funny....
Just found out that I have half as much posts as drafts unposted. I actually forgot them. Hmmm.... I see why I hesitated to post them: to controversial. LOL!

Brideshead revisted. (the movie)
I almost never read film reviews and only commented a few. But this time I want to pose some questions: Is it the movie or is something wrong with me? Why didn't it touch me at all? That's why I watched the movie a second time after just a week. I got no answers.
I didn't hope to have the same emotions with the movie as I recall the Brittisch GRANADA TV series from 1981. And a remake is often tricky to watch, just like it is to see "the movie" after you have read the book. I'm sure that the TV photography will look awful after seen the movie. The photography of the movie is often stunning.... but perhaps a bit to dark? To much one side key lights totally cool? Yes, I agree, it's a "sad" story after all but why is the light in the whole movie almost dark?
The type cast is very good and they all act very well too. And yet, there wasn't a touching scene. The relation between Sebastian and Charles is established as if they are 12 year old boys, running around, having a naked swim, getting drunk, a kiss.... as if nothing seriously is going on. I guess that's the missing link: there is not a moment of passion in the whole movie. Even the short bed scene between Charles and Julia on the ocean liner looks like an anti-climax. After finding Sebastian and having to leave him in Morocco it;s a farewell with a gentle pet on Sebastian's shaved head and a bey without any emotion. You really wonder why Charles went to Morocco to find Sebastian. Just to do Sebastian's mother the favor after she kicked Charles out? Just for money???
The threads about Catholicism and the hypocrisy seems to be the only important issues. The homo and bisexuality, the adultery, jealousy and the secrets and passion are only established in a few verbal or short visual hints. Perhaps I should watch it a 3th time?

Lubersiaanse rapsodie of knoop? (INTRO!')
Laat ik voorop stellen:
Ik baal! Wat een beschamende vertoning die LIVE uitzending van het 2e Kamer debat.
Maar nog erger de samenvattingen door de nieuwsdiensten! Zo LIEG JE HET "VOLK" voor! Fascismus in Nue Kleider Kaizer's"
Genoeg gefulmineerd over de "objectieve media"? Nou.... ik wou dat ik er gehakt van zou hebben gemaakt.... maar..... WHO AM I ? Het feit dat ik wegens ziekte al ruim 21 jaar continu ALLES live gevolgd heb is toch het bewijs dat ik niet kan weten wat er WERKELIJK gezegd is! Immers ik ben ZIEK en gezonde mensen lezen de telegraaf of kijken naar zoiets als NOVA en dus weten ZIJ hoe de vork in de steel zit. Toch?
Breek me de bek niet open! (wordt BESLIST vervolgd!)
- Ik ben vaak FEL tegentander geweest van M.P. Ruud Lubbers. En ik word misselijk van Wilders.
- Ik ben een GROENE, Rode, LIBERAAL ex pacifist.
- Groen in zake ecologie en rood inzake sociale zaken en liberaal omdat ik "wereldbreed" vind dat iedereen moet kunnen zijn wie hij wil zijn... (homo, miljonair, pedofiel, .... dom blondje, intelectueel, gezant van ... ) zolang je niemand "kwaad" doet. EN DAAR ZIT DE KNOOP!
