The Van's Dominate!

The Van's dominated Italy yesterday in the EuroCup 3-0! As a Van, and while on a conference call, I thought it a good idea to publish some facts about Van Land, aka The Netherlands, dba The Netherregions.

  1. It's a constitutional monarchy
  2. Aruba is owned by the Dutch
  3. Jazz flute was invented by the Dutch
  4. It's a founding member of the European Union and NATO
  5. It is home court for the International Criminal Tribunal, the Permanent Court of Arbitration, and the International Court of Justice. Big Picture: the Dutch rule.
  6. Like Memphis, The Netherlands has a big delta, resulting from the Rhine River
  7. LeeAnn Rhines is a famous Dutch country singer
  8. The Netherlands best Italy 3-0 yesterday
  9. The Dutch East India company colonized a lot of places around the world, which resulted in many of the problems facing developing countries today.
  10. Dutch mints are the most popular candy world wide

There are very few among us who have the honor and privilege of knowing our last names mean greatness. I encourage all of you to check into the Van option. Van Nanji. VanderCate. VanSuchman. The opportunities are endless -- and people will begin asking you where in Michigan/Pennsylvania your people come from.

We all went to trivia last night, and the vans did little to assist our team: Poochie, Poochie for Girls. The winning team's name: What Happens in Gina Gerschon Stays in Gina Gerschon.

Solution: we need a better name.

Thoughts anyone?

I recommend: Children Who Shines

Have you tried adding a Van to your team name?

What about Dog Broccoli? Or, you could just go straight for the kill and take my former boss' name. Dick. Dick Farmer. Or Weiner Agrarian.
