Here I was thinking of bikers as rough & tough. Turns out they’re a religious bunch! “No way”, you say, and don’t kid me because I can hear you say it. You think I photoshopped the image of the Holy Virgin on top of the fueltank of that worn BSA. Admit it! Honestly, I didn’t. As I said before: they’re a very religous part of our society now. We can all go to sleep peacefully, as the Order of the Bikers is watching out over their brethren. Makes me wonder if the Pope rides a BSA or a Harley?

Meet the Dutch Minister of Foreign Affairs, Maxime Verhagen, meeting his French counterpart, Bernard Kouchner, at their joint press conference, this morning at the French State Department. Mighty interesting to be able to attend events such as these. At the same time, as an eager follower of the world’s news, it remains difficult to be just the observant, shooting away from my little corner of the room. Something to get used to, I guess…
