Are you pondering what Belgium is pondering?

So, the European Union and the launch of the new euro currency are not hot topics around here I noticed. ;) But they are hot topics in some quarters, and I thought a few people here might get a kick out of this little note (http://denbeste.nu/cd_log_entries/2001/12/fog0000000066.shtml) about Belgium.

The currency is not called euro dollar just euro. Only currencies that really have dollar in their name are dollars.

So the Euro kinda effects since I live in Europe. we have the new currency but we can still apy with the old one until the end of Feb. So far I have not see the new money because none of the Banks were open today. But at Mc Donalds I got my change back in Euros. The Euro has one big advantage: the PS2 gets cheaper, but one the other hand some things get more expensive because they round up prices a bit.

An expired inner link or something. I just got something similar when I tried to follow a link to the same webpage.

So go here (http://www.denbeste.nu/) and scroll down until you see the face of a certain famous megalomaniac.
