Subject: RE: [AN1x-list] OT: Do European parents still make their kids learn accordian?

From: Roland van Oorschot <scout@...>

Yeah,

And here in Holland we have special wooden shoes made by Nike(tm) and every
day a folklore dance-event in the Redlight-district where everybody is getting
high on pot.
Amsterdam? Isn't that the capital of Danmark?

I guess you wouldn't like it if I say that the average American has the same
IQ of a Jerry Springer guest and looks like Ronald McDonald?
Oh yes..we ∗DO∗ have TV over here in Europe! :)

It's nothing personal Ed, but I absolutly hate the ignorance some americans
have.

Regards,
Roland
