Hairy Harry


Meet Mickey, Dia's cat. He's sitting in the bathtub, drinking water from the tap, unaware that tomorrow he is going to have his hair cut. In the past, he's had some interesting haircuts (naked body, full tail, fur boots and hairy face), so it will be interesting to see what he'll look like this time tomorrow.

Herk's Werk

Sometimes you need a wake-up call. I got mine this afternoon when a possible customer mentioned my website. 'This website is temporarily not available', I told the silly souls who visited my site. 'I'll be back soon with a completely renewed site,' I lied lightly. Yeah right! The road to hell is paved with good intentions. There were so many choices to make (colors, fonts, what to say, where to put it, which pictures to show, and how - I ended up doing nothing at all.

Till that phone call, that is. Suddenly I felt that Enough is Enough. And I have taken so many decisions these past five hours, that I feel slightly dizzy. And now I've got my site back. Is it perfect? Hell, no. Wait till it's perfect and you'll find that in the meantime the worms have eaten most of your flesh. But it gives an impression of what I do - or what I like, when pressurized: www.herk.biz

Mint Condition

The old lady's engine was more reliable than some of my best friends, but semi-necessary things like speedometer, rear-window heater and adjustable mirrors had died one by one and a small but continuous drip of oil leaked from an unknown source in the intestines. After 15 years and 215.000 kilometers it was time to trade in Old Faithful, my Peugot 106.

The Car is Dead, Long Live The Car!

So Meet & Greet Suzy Q. She is 8 years old and 75.000 km long, and - at least colourwise - in Mint condition. When people who haven't met her yet ask me what kind of car she is, I proudly tel them: Spring Green!

PS Note the Citroen logo in ton-sur-ton green on the front, giving Suzy a cat's nose appearance. Meow! This Saxo's so sexy.

Inclusive Thinking

Yes, we do love Beekbergen, famous for its clean air, which is why lots of Institutions for Needy People have been established in the Healthy Woods surrounding the village in the past century. Smack in front of the Dutch Reformed Church (foundations traced back to the 11th century), you see not one, but TWO mailboxes: one for people who live in wheelchairs, the other for us sorry lot who have back problems. A fine example of Inclusive Thinking. Go Beekbergen!
