Come on now currupt, we need to Welcome the Dutch.
I spent some time in the Netherlands back in 1997. Great people as a whole and were very hospitable to Americans.
I went to Vriezenveen, Eygelshoven and several other small towns while there. Riksten, what town are you from?

Re: Secret Lives
Amsterdam rocks. Me and my buddies stepped off the train and one of the first things we saw was a man wearing only a thong and knee high rubber boots riding a green Pee Wee Herman looking bicycle. He looked at us like 'What are you looking at?' and my buddy says "Nice boots!"
Priceless... definitely one of the weirdest things I saw but others were close.

Re: Secret Lives
Equipment Operator I, Streets and Facilities division, City of Madison Heights Department of Public Services...
So, basically, I'm one of those guys in the safety green vests you see filling potholes, repairing cement, mowing parks, trimming trees, cleaning up vandalism, picking up garbage, tending garden beds at municipal buildings, the list goes on and on... (whoops, forgot snow plowing/salting, that's a biggie in the winter) I love my job, the nature of the work gives me time to think about things that are important to me (poetry, music, and writing in general), I'm a functional part of keeping my city looking good, and on wonderful days like we've been having, I'm outside in the thick of it enjoying the weather. Plus, it's great exercise (you walk for 8 hours with a backpack blower, and tell me you don't feel the burn  )... Basically, I go home every day feeling accomplished, like I have made a difference. I like that.
I also enjoy cooking, turning that from a career to a hobby was the best thing I could have done, various home repairs (carpentry, plumbing, electrical, masonry, etc...), I garden, I wrench on various Jeep, I love to camp, I like to write and compose, and I also enjoy refinishing old furniture... And, when I find the time, I also homebrew.
