First about Germany. Never tell a German that he/she is a race or only a language. Germany is like USA. Many states make one country. But in the States you not say: "I'm Kansas", No you say: "I'm American". In the Netherlands we have also 13 different provence.(I think I had te write it so). In Germany say the people also that the German and not that thay are Nedersaksisch. Now our black pages. One big mistake we did was to switch New York for Suriname. If we never did that. Than was USA now on wooden shoes. Next black page was after WW2 that we had give up our colony in the East. America, want's that. So we listen. Good for us. The submarines from Russia lay for the coast in that time. We never knew it for a couple years ago. But, see now how the trouble is in Indonesia. And the biggest black page: The biggest thing what we did was slave trade. We shamed about that. But history, you can't changed it. But we are also proud on our country. We kicked out the Spain after 80 years of war, France are beaten, with help from others we beat the Nazi's. And we beat once England with Admiral Michiel de Ruyter. In a far away history. So look in the books or internet and you find more. Every country has his good and bad things. This was in a few words history of the Netherlands. Greetings Dutchy

PCPilot, can you put his patch on this topic. When we see a boat from now on, on tv. We know of it is his unit. I hope your son will read this topic on a day. Than he know how many support everybody has there. Support from people that they don't know by name or face. So do you son "Goose" the greetings and support from me. Than he knows that he not only had support from his home-land, but also from a little country in Europe.....The Netherlands. Greetings Dutchy

He was a Austrian. But fight in WW1 for Germany. And the Germans in this time are good. I know a few and they are friendly and know their history. They don't proud of it. But it happen. But has every country not a black page in history? My country has. Greetings Dutchy

Say "Hello and our support" to you son, from Biohazcentral. The pic with the helmet and sunglasses, he looks as mine moviehero Goose from Top Gun. Return safetly son of PCPilot!. Greetings Dutchy

Yes, we skate on open frozen canals behind dykes. And sometimes we have a big tour about 200km in the head of the Netherlands. It call Elfstedentocht. Translated as Elevencitytour. It was for last time in 1997. When you win that race. You are a hero forever in our country. On frozen lakes we also skate. We skate when there is ice. Long distance is what we like. Sprint also. A few years ago I met Derek Parra. He is famous here. Even with Jennifer Rodriquez, she is also populair here. I met here to. When the winter is beginning, almost every dutchman/-woman wanna skate. And in the ice-hockyteam of Heerenveen are Americans playing. Here something what you can read. www.fansite.ijshockey.com/flyers/fo2.htm or when no signal www.fansite.ijshockey.com/flyers/f02.htm Greetings Dutchy

I believe in miracles, but not the Miracle that Detroit wins. My favourite Dutch team is. Formido Flyers Heerenveen. www.ijshockey.com/flyers Greetings Dutchy

About WW2. The France and the Germans were always in war. Before WW1 the had fight for a Elzas-Lotharingen. It is on the border there.You find France city's with German names. The differen't between WW1 and WW2 is. First was held by an Empire. And the second by a dictator that fought in WW1. And the 30's were terrible in Europe and America (remember the smuggling alcohol and Maffia). Here in Europe, was also high at workless people. Hitler promised them work and food. And revenge for WW1. Only Spain has kept his Nazi dictator at longst. Franco was his name. Germany tested their weapons in the Spainisch war. So I still think: People follow dictators because the wanna work, food and games. And a little bit revenge maybe. Greetings Dutchy

Yes I followed it on text tv. My favourite team is Detroit Red Wings. I had there StanleyCup cap of 1998. I'm a big fan of Icehockey. Here in the Netherlands I follow also a Dutch team. Detroit Red Wings is this year not good. Lose three times. Greetings Dutchy

I say two words: "GREAT PIC" greetings Dutchy

I have one question for you mr. dia_0602: "Where do you come from?" Look, not everybody is glad with war. But sometimes must it done. What you told, was not new for me. I did know everything. But times change and regimes also. One day your Enemy is the other day your Friend. And I can tell you that. My neighbour country Germany, started two wars. Now we live in peace. Other regime, other rules. But what I say about dictators is my meaning. I'm glad that I never went in war. But my grandparents are, and I heard their story. Greetings Dutchy

To dia_0602, What you just say, is unbelievble. You only told about what was after Desert Storm 1991. You don't tell about the terror he did before that year. Under his regime was nobody save. The Ba'ath killed in his name thousands of people, for about 35 years. More than there live in a town like LA. Okay, there is a Gulf-War Syndrom. That is treu. And after 1991 people died. Sanctions, were not for nothing. People must stand up against him. But there scared. Scared as 35 years of dictatorship. And now the thank the Coalitian that help them to be free. Think about what you said. And read my forum topic about Dictators. Greetings Dutchy

The battle can maybe short, but the long termin after that is dangerous. You get people that maybe attack the soldiers or each other. I was here in my neighbourhood, the first before the war said: "the war can be short, but the time to get really peace there can be long, very long". And everyone looks to Iraq, but we almost forget now the soldiers in Afgan. Greetings Dutchy

On tv I saw live the American soldiers and Iraqi people bring down the big statue of Sadam. It was in the middle of Bagdad. People were dancing on the fallen statue. Weird to see those things live when you come home after work. Greetings Dutchy

I found something for you Snapple 2993 It is a long site name. Hopely it is a good one. I found it by google in my own language search. I typed: "dj tiesto vinyl" and I get this: http://dj.startkabel.nl/k/dj/index.php?nr=1 When you search on this site. Mostly is in Dutch. But they use Englisch words also. I will translate some for you. Platenzaken=Recordshops. And that is what you looking for. And there is more for you than you asked me. More DJ sites. 8) I hope for you the link is working. Let me know if it is. And I hope you find what you need. :thumbup: Greetings Dutchy

The old movie of the sixties "battle of Britian". I have seen it for many times. I must say, movie is good. Book is better. Greetings Dutchy

That's nice for your daughter, a pen friend that think of her while she is in war. When you daughter write her again. Let her tell that we here on this forum or at home in the USA (for me in The Netherlands) support the navy, army, marines and airforce. PCPILOT thanks for sharing the pics. Give your daughter a big milkshake or something from me. Greetings Dutchy

Another DJ is very populair now in the Netherlands. Maybe you know him, if not your the first now. Stuart or DJ Stuart with the song Weekend. It is very populair on party and vacantion islands as Ibiza. Do you have find now where you can buy vinyl records Snapple 2993? Greetings Dutchy

Hello Snapple2993, For the records I asked a friend today. He told me that in Amsterdam and/or Utrecht (both city's in the Netherlands) is a shop that sell vinyl records. He didn't know the names. But maybe you had now a point to search for your question. Greetings Dutchy So, what early in the morning is it today for me 04.36 just from a big hangout in the bar night.

It is so far, that Englisch (!) DJ artists take a Dutch name. So don't get the fake ones :!: So mine clock says now that it is 22:10. I'm a half hour away of going out 8) at my friday night. See ya Dutchy

Hé do you know. Junkie XL? The man that made last year a number one hit with a song from Elvis Presley? Maybe you know him better as JXL, the word Junkie was wrong by Elvis family. I'm a fan of Elvis, but also from heavy metal/hard rock, southern rock like Lynyrd Skynyrd and off course our Dutch pride Golden Earring. I'm still looking for you and asking people here of they know a adress for vinyl. Greetings Dutchy

One man has to get a medal. I read on CNN website. That Iraqi man helped the marines to tell them where the held Jessica Lynch. His wife and daughter were in the hospital. He saw Jessica and a colonel that slapped her twice. More about this, on CNN website. Hero of the day is a Iraqi man with a wife and daughter. Greetings Dutchy

The people that rescued her they award a medal. And my meaning about the girl. She looks good. A pretty lady. Sorry, that was to much mantalk. Greetings Dutch

Hello Snapple 2993, I'm 28, but it is not really my music. But I did searching for you. I found two sites that is maybe good for you. The site of DJ Tiesto: www.djtiesto.nl The recordingsite of DJ Tiesto is: www.black-hole.nl I hope you they can help you further with your question. When I heard something about what you asked. I let you know it. Now I have a question for you: "you asked for vinyl, are you a DJ in clubs?" And is Dutch dance music so populair where you live? That is nice. Greetings and let me know if you get your vinyl. Dutchy

Great news. The Marines rescued a US soldier. An 19 year old women. She was wounded, but alive and that is what is imported. I read it on the CNN site. I hope for all POW's that they come home. Greetings Dutchy

I heard/read it too. There were MIA's. Two were found in mortuarium and the others in the ground from the hospital garden. The found it by a tip of a Iraqi. "Hopely this is the information that you wanted to know", Cylix=JW= Greetings Dutchy from the Netherlands, Europe
