bet and lose
missing by one. once again. over and over again. what a betting day. i had high hope after yesterday's live bets on ars-barca game.
6 stakes for Europe League night: 4 missed by one. 1 saved all money spent. 1 is a real failure.

selective perception
have just started reading football against enemy by s. kuper at last. 2 quotes from chapter two.
"The two teams, in short, summed up the way the Dutch wanted to see themselves and the way they saw the Germans. We were like Ruud Gullit and they were like Lothar Matthaeus. There were obvious flaws in this notion, and so, to make it fit, the Dutch briefly forgot their own discipline, their own stadiness, and their own intolerance of Turks and Moroccans and Surinamese like Gullit."
"... Several charter flights to semi-final were annuled, as fans saved for the final against Germany. Against Denmark, whole sections of the stands stayed empty. Naturally the Dutch lost. They were just too arrogant. Peter Schmeichel, the Danish keeper, noted the rage that they barely bothered to slap hands when Bergkamp scored their first goal. After the game they were distraught: Germany had beaten Sweden to reach the final...
The Germans lost the final, and in Copenhagen, the Danish players and the crowd sang, 'Auf Wiedersehen, Deutschland'. They had been occupied too.

No Visa for Turks into EU - coming soon
This is somehow going to be practical as well in the coming future. For the time being, two individuals won the case first in Germany last month. And now in the Netherlands.Human rights, agreements signed by both parties many years back and stuff
I still believe that I should have the right to vote in local elections. An EU citizen moving to Utrecht yesterday and register in the City Hall can vote next day, or a Dutch moving any other town to Utrecht too. But for non-EU citizens, first you have to be living for 5 years. Human rights: I should be able to say my word for the city I am living in. I can understand it about the general elections (this sounds like a one-to-one translation, I don't know) but local elections, come on! this is another case you can easily win :)
