John Wick 2
After watching the first John Wick I now also watched the second movie, aka chapter 2. I watched the first one already quite a while ago. Then my son said he was going to see chapter 3 so I figured it was time to do some catching up and watch chapter 2. After having ‘retired’…

10 women who changed science and the world, Catherine Whitlock & Rhodri Evans (ISBN 9781472137432, Robinson)
Another book I picked up in bookstore Dominicanen in July 2022. It is a cheap paperback edition and I have to say I have read better written books of this type of collection of short biographies. Somehow I found the biographies were too much a collection of facts without a soul that inspires. But there…

First Light, Richard Preston (ISBN 9780679449690, Random House)
I came across a reference to this book while reading The Hot Zone, also from Richard Preston. I wrote another post about The Hot Zone earlier on this blog. Although The Hot Zone is a bit on the sensational side it was definitely well written so I decided to read First Light as well especially…

Limburgs Mooiste
Last Saturday I went to ride Limburgs Mooiste with my 12 year old son. As we only did 2 practice rides, one of 70k and another one of 80k in the weeks before we took the shortest 70k blue route. With all the hills around Valkenburg it would probably be challenging enough. About the distance…

SWAT
Went and watched the 2003 SWAT movie with Colin Farrell and Samuel Jackson, Michelle Rodriguez and Jeremy Renner again after seeing SWAT: Under Siege. Unfortunately the star cast doesn’t make it significantly better than the mediocre Under Siege. But it is also not worse. The movie doesn’t start of bad but as the finale unfolds…

SWAT: Under Siege
Watched this movie on Netflix some time ago. I watched the original SWAT movie with Colin Farell and Samuel Jackson. Compared to that movie this one is a bit of a low budget let down. It features Michael Jay White but he is acting like he only got paid half a salary. There are a…

3,5k Jog
Sunday I was planning to go for another bike ride again but it didn’t materialise. Around 3:30 I decided that I had to do something pro active to compensate for the upcoming dinner which would include a lot of food and sitting at the table with some exercise so I went for a run. As…

Maison Belge
Sunday we went for dinner at Maison Belge to celebrate a couple of May birthdays. We’ve been there a few times before and so far it was always a success. The kids opted out this time in favour of a home made pizza + Netflix movie evening. It saved us the worry that the dinner…
