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

Friday/Friday

Here's the dilly,
Write something silly,
'bout willy nilly.

Use your skillies,
Impress all the fillies,
but earn your billies!

Keep it ill,
there's time to fill,
It's Friday, so chill.

If you're willing,
compose something thrilling,
Keep your thoughts distilling,
See y'all at the bar swilling!

I thought it'd be fun to read something today that's fun--anyone want to be brave and write a short little something? a haiku? a fun poem? a paragraph of nonsense?

The prize is an ear of corn from our garden in a few months if the stuff grows.

Networking Help

Hey Y'all
I need someone to do the networking (IT) in my office.  I am going to go paperless so I need help to get all my PCs talking to each other.  I have one quote from someone, but I want to know if that seems to be the going rate.  Do you anyone or have you worked with anyone at work that I could call?
Thanks!!!
