HAPPY QUEENSDAY!

Yes, it's april 30th, the day we celebrate the birthday of the dutch queen.

In other words, everybody goes to Amsterdam in orange to get pissed and have a good time.

Everybody you ask? Yes, everybody.

Can I play?? My ancestors came from Poortvliet. I think I'm going to go talk to my boss and tell him I'm going to get pissed!

I'm not Dutch, but the way I understand it is this: Today is Queen's Day, then tomorrow is Ascension Day, another holiday. Although Friday isn't a real holiday, a lot of people are going to treat it as one anyway. It must be nice being in the Netherlands. I was there last year, but it was a little after Queen's Day.

Cripes, we Americans don't have NEARLY that much fun on President's Day. I'm jealous.

And I was thinking it was Freddy Mercury's birthday

The orange mania in the Netherlands is scary.

I'd like to live in the Netherlands, but this part puts me off...big time!
