  • No Ordinary Genius. The Illustrated Richard Feynman, Christopher Sykes (ISBN 978-039331393-2, W. W. Norton)

    I came across a reference to this book in another book I read about Feynman and it ended up on my list. I bought it last year and then decided end of 2022 to start reading it while I was also reading The Discoverers to add a bit of light reading in the mix. Christopher […]

  • Jan de Volksschilder

    Last week our daughter was away with school so we took the opportunity to go to Jan de Volksschilder in Keerbergen. The restaurant is known for its variety and quality of spare ribs. As our daughter is vegetarian this is not the first choice to go for dinner with the whole family. But as she […]

  • Pizza at Luciano

    To celebrate the end of the indoor hockey competition of our son we went for Pizza at Luciano in Keerbergen with the team. We come here every now and then when we want to eat pizza. From the places in the neighbourhood this is our favourite pizza restaurant. And they also have other Italian food […]

  • Die Hard 2

    Watched the second Die Hard movie a few weeks ago again after a long time. I really liked it when I watched it originally in 1990 or so. It is really Die Hard 2 in the sense that is again taking place on Christmas Eve and more or less confined to 1 one building. In […]

  • Karl Marx

    Who rushes behind with wild bluster ? A swarthy fellow from Trier, a vigorous monster. He walks not, he hops not, he leaps on his heals And raves, full of rage, as if he wanted to seize The broad canopy of heaven, and pull it down to earth, His arms extended very wide in the […]

  • Knowledge

    ‘The known is finite, the unknown infinite; intellectually we stand on an islet in the midst of an illimitable ocean of inexplicability. Our business in every generation is to reclaim a little more land, to add something to the extent and solidity of our possessions.‘― Thomas Henry Huxley

  • John Wick

    Watched the first John Wick movie a couple of years ago. Came across it on Netflix while searching for Keanu Reaves. I hadn’t heard about it at the time but of course today it has become a well known franchise. This weekend chapter 4 came out in the cinema here and I decided to catch […]

  • First k on Stromer ST3 Pinion

    Early this week the odometer on the Stromer crossed the 1000km mark. It took a bit longer than expected due to a lot of bad weather. Too much rain when it was close to freezing. Not the ideal conditions for going +40 km/h on 2 bicycle tyres. Instead of enjoying a relaxing bike ride I […]

  • The Bourne Legacy

    We watched The Bourne Legacy last week. It was the first movie we watched on our new tv. Every now and then there was a scene that was brilliantly detailed with vivid colours. It just adds extra pleasure to watching movies. This fourth movie in the Jason Bourne franchise doesn’t star Matt Damon as Jason […]
