The Weather

It snowed during the entire Easter weekend. It is raining a lot right now.

Alanis Morissette/liquidweb

I sat in the main office at work today, where Top 40 music perennially plays on a stereo. To give you and idea of Dutch music: a cover of that Alanis Morissette song from the City of Angels movie was remixed. This is unsettling for four reasons, all of which build upon the previous:

1. A soundtrack song was covered.
2. An Alanis Morissette song was covered.
3. A cover of an Alanis Morissette song was remixed.
4. All of this makes for a successful single in the Dutch market. 🙁

Dutch Culture So Far

 Dutch people like three things:
1) Fondant cake
2) Licorice
3) Bitterballen

And hold true to one tenet – not mixing salty and sweet snacks.

I went to the NDSM with Dan’s friend Peter the other day. He put up some awesome pictures here .
