And then you have things like the record label Tresor in Berlin ... i don't

Hm...i´ve read somewhere that Techno started in a couple of places at
the same time, but US could be true, but i would also think that UK
were the first, since a lot of new music came from there. If you are
really picky you could say that Germany did it first,
namely "Kraftwerk" with their mechanic machine music.
What makes me wonder is, why these three big companies Korg, Roland,
Yamaha are japanese and not don´t know...It is like Japanese have
almost the development of modern music in their hand...hmmmm a
conspiracy? Maybe my AN1x is constantly sending out a sub-
consciousess message: "...Buy more japanese products..."

Actually, the Dutch go to France and Spain. The Spanish coast and islands
(Ibiza...) are to be avoided at all costs, primarily because of the Dutch,
Brits and Germans.

The Dutch coast is to be avoided because of the Germans (and the Dutch of
course). Tell me, why do you guys always dig holes on the beach? This is our
national mystery: we know that the Germans come to our beaches, and spend a
good deal of money here (believe me, there's no way you can make a Dutchman
more happy), but why the holes?

I myself go to Malta, but then again I have a very good reason to go there,
and her name is Yana. :)

Oh yes, before I forget: Germans are arrogant and fat. :) French are just
arrogant :)

Hmhm, i know what you mean...that´s why i avoid them as well...i
mean, when i go to a foreign country for holiday...do i really want
to see stupid germans, i have usually for the rest of the year? Nooo,
that´s why i go to holiday on a foreign country...but...you know how
ppl are, no matter german, british, dutch or whatever...stuuuupid,
arrogant and anal.

ROFL....LOL...I don´t know...i live in the very north of Germany,
very close to the coast to the North Sea, and we have a lot of
tourists here at the beaches as well...and it´s true, they have to
dig holes everywhere....Maybe it´s the german attitude, to dig deep,
to think deeper, to find a deeper meaning, you know like: "i wonder
what´s inside..."...or maybe...we got used to dig graves during the
third Reich, so ppl still practice...*evil grin*

Hey, good luck to you.

Hm...from where were the Germans you have seen? I guess they were
from the south of Germany. There are the fat ones...in the north,
they are all skinny AND even more arrogant.
But did you realize, that everyone is (as annoying as they can be)
most ppl are friendly but never the germans? When my wife (who is
jamaican by origin) first came to germany, she asked me, why everyone
looks so mean or sad?
Maybe our past is still haunting us...maybe that´s why we try to dig
it into other countries beach...*G*
