Hey Bonnie!
I used to be ctzn_o_knrc over at zappa.com. First time posting here even though I have been registered for a while.



That's me on the right and our resident kiwi on the left.

But just to remind you of my name and its spelling:;)

thank you for posting the pictures of countryside and landscapes Bonny! It helps me in so many ways to get a sense of terrain (OH so important) when reading about the Burgund wars and before (1400's). I have a decent topo map of france and the lowlands and sometimes some decent pictures of the hills across france, but very few really of the areas around where you live. and 500 years ago, networks of trade were being set up there the likes of which would transform the region if not how people began to see the importance of commerce over war
I think I saw one too of a 360 degree view near a river maybe, fantastic!

A very large part of the netherlands is concrete nowadays... I haven't yet seen a spot where you're completely away from civilisation in the vicinity of my living area. There's always some tall buildings on the horizon that spoil the horizon.

Brr. It is something I alway wanted to see in the museum. Funny is that I looked into the Wrong museum.
The Hague municipal, but I have should been in the Hague histrorical museum.

Just remembered, we have in our Private Bibliotheque an "Atlas Classique" in the French Belgian Language
1922 - 1926
It is in a worse shape but very interesting

this is a view of where I work:


in fact, the table on the far wall is where I usually do most things, here you can see dough rolled into flat 'skins' that are stacked. I made those into what we call empanadas here :)
where that person stands is the main central axis of activity in the restaurant (so, right behind me all the time) and from the front to the back of the house. not much room at all. In the lower right of the pic is where breakfast is cooked. the metal basket close to the camera at the end of the 'hall' where the dishwasher works and this shot is taken from the clock-in, laundry room

To me the joke was it looked like Goofy was mocking with that angel. And on second looks, it even seems like the deer behind it is mocking with the wings.

There's a lot of them statues around here, in roadside altars and stuff. I think they're totally ugly.

Image of the gigantic book market that happens every year in EHV and lasts 4 days. I bought a French course for DED, a Romanian course for myself, a make-your-own-caleidoscope set, a roll of fabric, and a double book: Dracula and Frankenstein.

Not sure if it shows up in this pic, but at the Culture section they were selling Michael Gray's FZ biography at under 6E. I paid 20. :pissed:

DED - 3-11-2007 at 09:48

The building is called the "beursgebouw" and was a few years ago known but not in a positive way.
Someone had organized a concert of Tom Jones. A lot of shops in Eindhoven sell many tickets. Tom Jones in Eindhoven wow. The owners of the building invest a lot in tribunes, stage,seats and so on.
Then it appear to be a confidence trick.
Tom Jones and his manager knew about nothing, people lost their money, and shops their good name.

BBP - 3-11-2007 at 11:23

Never heard of that... I know Limp Bizkit was scheduled to play there once, which is not good for anyone's name.

DED - 3-11-2007 at 14:22

One of the guys who sold tickets in his shop (Tongelresestraat) (post office, sigarets and books) was living first in our neighbourhood. He and his father and mother lived in the Kempensebaan where we lived at no 68 (The house you were born) he lived at the opposite site on the corner where his father had a shop for paint and wallpaper, on the side he already had a small post office. Later on he moved with his business to the Tongelresestraat. The Tom Jones story plaid somewhere around the late nineties.

I am playing the man with the camera;)
I shot 20 hours of video for the halloween show for documentation purposes.
the show, rehearsals, auditions, production meetings, etc. a little bit of everything.We wanted to scare people, to give them something to think about o the way home, do a cinematic themed piece of live theater, that 'eats' itself . . .

BBP - 6-11-2007 at 09:50

Sounds cool!
But I would like to know what sort of plays you perform.

punknaynowned - 6-11-2007 at 20:42

all sorts. comedy, drama, short, long, shakespeare, modern, but mostly locally written:D

BBP - 6-11-2007 at 21:18

Ah that's fun, local plays! Sigh... reminds me of the only play I wrote that got performed, which was a disaster. With 6 weeks time for prepare, I had to spend 4 just getting the cast of 4 people together. And then you have a group larger than 3, so it becomes impossible to find a time when you all drop by at a rehearsal.

There's no pics of that (which involved one character jumping offstage). But there are pictures of me at the last play I was in, which was very funny. Maybe they're here somewhere. The only time you'll ever see a grown-up Bonny in a pink dress.:-D

this is always a problem. It's a two month commitment where everything else has to be pushed aside. When the cast and crew is more like 15 or 20 or more people it gets harder still. you have to break up into groups and deal with the different aspects bit by bit and then get everyone to agree on the week prior for all the full run rehearsals: a load-in of the set, a cue-to cue on the stage with the set and cast, a tech rehearsal to make sure everything works before a dress rehearsal and then the shows.
I shot this whole thing and it was hard for me because I don't even own a camera. Now I have to transfer and edit the whole thing without any equipment like software to do it!

hahahhahaaahaha!
very funny, you see it yourself as funny

BBP - 8-11-2007 at 11:18

The "red nose" thing was a twist by our director, Claudia. She considered it "funny" if we were all wearing a red nose. Good idea. Except that having something on your nose really blocks your breathing and makes your voice go funny (mine anyway, I have a very nasal voice). And, to stop them from falling off, we had to attach them using pins and rubber bands. After the premiere, during the ovation, I took it off and was clapping for the director, whilst still having it in my hand. OUCH!

What you can't see on the photo is I'm wearing high heels, which were killing me. Especially during the end (YOU MEN ARE ALL THE SAME! ALL AFRAID OF COMMITMENT! ANY FORM OF COMMITMENT! ARE THERE NO REAL MEN LEFT?!) after which I had to walk away angrily, stamping my feet.

At first we were to perform "The accidental death of an anarchist", in which I was the 2nd madman (the madman part was so huge our director split it). As more and more players couldn't combine it with college anymore, we had to switch to something completely different. A collage of various movie monologues. Sources I recall are X-files, American Beauty, and Snatch!.

I think we have HD (Horizontal disease) wich means that as soon as we discover somewhere a horizontal surface, we put something on it.

BBP - 1-12-2007 at 19:15

...HD is actually a syndrom... Hip Disorder, often found with shepherd dogs.

DED - 1-12-2007 at 23:08

and a hard disk, high density and many more.

A syndrom is not a disease.
(wiki)

In medicine and psychology, the term syndrome refers to the association of several clinically recognizable features, signs (discovered by a physician), symptoms (reported by the patient), phenomena or characteristics that often occur together, so that the presence of one feature alerts the physician to the presence of the others. In recent decades the term has been used outside of medicine to refer to a combination of phenomena seen in association.

In technical medical language, a "syndrome" refers only to the set of detectable characteristics. A specific disease, condition, or disorder may or may not be identified as the underlying cause

BBP - 2-12-2007 at 21:43

HD is not a disease. It's a birth defect. Kinda like what our aunt has with her shoulder.

that's a strange picture! Looking down on rushing water from a bridge of some sort. Yet the shadow of the column on the left makes the whole thing lean somehow, especially with how you framed it which is just fine.
It's strange, tho it looks computer generated but I know it's not . . .
of course at first I thought it was the underside of a sofa

BBP - 10-12-2007 at 15:19


This is the underside of our sofa. After I bought the fotogenical PC game Shivers (the screen cap a few pics above comes from this game), I showed my new purchase to my father. In just a few seconds time he managed to drop it between seat and arm. It had slid between two wooden plates, and Dad cut open the bottom of the couch to get it out.

DED - 11-12-2007 at 10:09

There is more, after a week or 2, My other daughter was copying CD's and one of them slipped into the two parts in the corner. After deconecting the corner parts a long lost Watch was also found.
Visiting my mother, (BBP's grand mother) she was complaining that after my brother sitting on the bank the measurelint had disappeared. Prbably she said it was gone between the stting and the arm. With my long arms I managed to get the measurelint back but I touched something strange too. Scary. After I was brave enough for a second try, I fished a coin of 2 Euro's. Half an hour later my mother was 12.70 Euro's richer it cam all out of the sofa.
So, lesson number one. If you miss something, check out your seats.

BBP - 11-12-2007 at 12:15

When we moved into a new house 10 years ago, we lifted our couch and heard something rattle. DED decided to cut it open to check what's in it. It was a tiny little ball belonging to our miniature roulette, this ball had been missing for at least 2 years.

Cows are cool when they are really young and when they are not doing much (just being themselves). When you separate calves from cows, for then next week or so you won't sleep because they make such a racket.

BBP - 28-12-2007 at 12:10



A cute little group of cows had spotted my sister and me when we walked to them, so they immediately walked at us (probably thinking "FOOD!").

Had the idea cows don't do much anyway, except for walking and eating (and pooping and humping).

A very nice abode. Does anyone ever say "abode" apart from the Munsters, or Munster-like people? Anyway, have you ever been 'snowed in', like in cartoons Punk?

punknaynowned - 1-1-2008 at 05:15

not here, but once in northern New York, what they call 'upstate'. But that was 15 years ago I think we got 4 feet in a day and a half.
I have a dear friend who just had a baby a year ago and lived thru one of the biggest snows on record up in that region. Eleven feet of snow earlier this year (Jan/Feb) and more in some areas. Not continual snow, it took a few days for it all to drop but feet upon feet of snow where you have to open a window if your door opens out and tunnel your way out and up to the level of the snow, near the roof.
Insane. But I love snow.
hahahhahaaahah

Happy New Year everyone!!

scallopino - 1-1-2008 at 09:15

Have you ever released a Christmas album called "Snowed In", ala Hanson?

DED - 2-1-2008 at 16:57

A nice house indeed.
How does the chimney works, the pipe doen't enter the house, It looks like it dissapears into the ground?

punknaynowned - 3-1-2008 at 19:12

not a good picture of that. it's a gravity furnace in the basement. The basement walls stick up 20-30 cm above ground level (moreso in the back) and that's where the exhaust pipe comes out. I have some better pictures.

It's a rental and is twice as much as I can afford and I have to pay all the utilities on top of that. With gas (heat) prices so high it'll be a wonder how I pay for it all. But the place has some charm. Wood floors, tiled shower, bathroom and kitchen and a cute really old gas stove that works like a breeze. I'm a cook, so can appreciate the fine controls on an old stove that works well.
I've been trying to load more pictures all morning to photo bucket but my connection is poor today so I only have 2-3 to share.
this is from the front door looking thru the place to the back door

The thing on the floor, center bottom of the above pict is the vent for the furnace. Don't step on it in bare feet when it's hot! They call this type of structure a 'shotgun shack' because the line of site runs straight from the front door to the back and the rest of the place doesn't branch out at all. Well, except for this comical but very functional closet that sticks out from the straightlines of the house, on the north side. The top picture is from the sidewalk, from the ESE looking NW.
and this is from the backdoor, looking thru to the front door. Notice the window design on the pre-fabricated door.

Same as the window in the top picture from the outside :)
I wonder what the landlord would sell it for.

DED - 4-1-2008 at 17:33

Rearrange your vid's in IVC1.5 it is on the computer
Then it will fit. Ask me for ass. if needed.

Yes it is a beautiful house with a one row corridor. Most houseboats in the canals of Amsterdam are built the same.

In Eindhoven there is a neighbourhood (next to ours in fact) that is called "Schuttersbos" (gunmans forest). In the crisis years Philips must have houses for ther personnel and they bought pre fabricated wooden houses in Austria for what we call a cheap price nowadays. It was payed for in potatoes and lightbulbs. After 40 years the houses can not met nowadays expectations and they will all dissapear and changed for newly wooden prefabricated houses from Finland.

It is amazing to see how quick a house like that is built.
he BBP make some pictures of it, please.

De website where I got my info from is
http://www.gijzenrooi.nl/Buurt/schuttersbosch.php Sorry it is in Dutch.

When you asked me to valuate your house, I would carefully say that the worth of the house is the same as the price of
the round it is standing up. (Regarding to the story above)

punknaynowned - 5-1-2008 at 05:02

'houseboats in the canals'. That's great!!
Now I'm going to find pictures of that. You alerted me to something I know very little about but have always been curious about.
I think you are right, the house probably costs as much as the ground it sits on. Prices here are so high and have been for such a long time and now they fall.
You see the crisis years. Are you speaking of WWII? or later?

BBP - 5-1-2008 at 13:02

EZ. Just google for images on "woonboot".
Mind you, you have to be careful with fires when you have one!

DED - 6-1-2008 at 10:43

Houseboats you will find them in a lot of varieties.
But most are divided into 3 groups.
Concrete base (ponton)
Steel base (ponton)
Converted former cargoships (sometimes with motor)

The ones with a concrete or steel base are some sort of houses on the water. They can have more floors than one.

however, I have yet to try the camera with the new machine, so maybe I shouldn't be so brazen

SD card's house is broken (a littlle corner)
Its fit better in the camera than in the cardreader
a few drops of superglue will help
With a little help from a piece of paper I managed to get the prictures for now.
