Cold front above us, we knew it was a day to chill today. Luckily temperatures were high, blue sky. So lots of things to do, or just chill.

And of course on such days, as a belgian I am asked to name famous belgians, just as if we don't have any ....
.... so here we go, first those who we are proud of :
Jacques Brel, singer
Eddy Merckx, best cyclist ever in history,
Adolf Sax, inventor of the saxophone,
Pieter Breughel (father and son), flemish painter,
Pieter Paul Rubens, flemish painter,
Jan Van Eyck, flemish painter,
Kim Clijsters, Justine Henin, tennis,


Toots Thielemans, world famous jazz harmonica player


Hercule Poirot, Jean Claude Van Damme, , Plastic Bertrand, Lucky Luke,
and TINTIN !!

And of course those we are not so proud of :
Marc Dutroux, pedofile monster,
Bart De Wever, contemporary politician,
King Leopold the 3rd, collaborator with the Nazi's during wwII,

So, how about you now !
