RE: HRH Prince Claus is dead
Well ueah Claus was in the Wehrmacht like all young men of his time and particular nationality...when he first came to the Netherlands people hated him a lot, but he actually turned out to really nice...friendly, witty, compassionate and working his arse off (for what it was wort, within strict protocol) to support 3rd world countries. He was a realy big advocate of fair trade and such...and he was just a realy nice guy.
I'm a royalist and Claus probably is one of the reasons many people are too in Holland.
Still it is kinda cool I'm on the 2nd floor with two windows and between me and the procession are only a sidewalk (2 yards maybe 3) with a line of soldiers. So all these folks (mandela, chirac etc.) will be passing by my studio...I think my studio will be the DT studio with the *Best* wordlwide media exposure...ever...
