Reflections on life at “De Witte Wand”…

Amsterdam Canal Parade

This weekend it’s Amsterdam’s Gay Pride 2006. Today is the day of the annual Canal Parade. Hopefully the weather will remain fine. I’m about to make the two hour journey off to Amsterdam to take some photos of the parade. In particular, of the Pink Pearl boat – crewed by the GLBT employees of my old employer, Shell.

    Greetings from sunny Iowa, USA, Geoff!
     
    I hope the weather is temperate and the day fine for all participants. Are you going to post photos of the event? I hope you will. Have a wonderful time!
     
    I found you through Gel at http://normality31.spaces.live.com after harkening to his kind words about your space. Your space has a kindly, good-humoured energy which I find engaging; I will most certainly be back!
     
    By the way, I have been active in our local community theater, and you have a Doppelganger here in Iowa. A fellow actor is nearly a dead-ringer for you in appearance; he has a cheerful personality, a quick wit, and a sense of humour dryer than a well-made martini. He’s a sweet spirit and a good friend.
     
    Have a wonderful weekend!
     
    Peace and love, always…

    Geoff;
     
    Thanks for the link to Eric Schwartz’s Country Music ditty, very funny.
    I thought I’d post a link to the picture of your Doppelganger at our
    local Community Theatre.  It’s a web page developed by Bill C. Roberts,
    you and him don’t look anything alike, however Bill Roberts below him, after first
    glance of your picture you two could’ve been twins seperated at birth.
     
    Everything Marge mentioned below is true of our Mr. Bill, who is a joy to
    be around.  Hopefully the weather was cooperative as well today, looking forward to the
    pictures.  Oh also of note, you’ll see a bio of my beloved Marge above
    Mr. Bill C. Roberts as well.
     
    Be at Peace,
     
    Steve.
    P.S. – I would be the one at the top of the "S" folder on our MCT.org site.

    Hi, Steve and Marge,
    Thanks for dropping by, and for providing evidence of my doppelganger! Cheers.
