Arrow of Time

Waiting, waiting, waiting……

I've been waiting for several months for the arrival of some stuff. Initially, its production time didn't make me curious about its delivery time because its quality is more important than its speed. Since the announcement of its imminent delivery, my waiting is becoming an experience in itself. Source: my 2025 blog Waiting, waiting, waiting ........ I think, feel...

The west’s shameful silence on Gaza (FT)

Intro LO: Am I ashamed of my silence on Gaza?? No. I'm not willing to make a choice between two parties that are both guilty.

De oorzaak is vrij simpel: kwaliteit versus kwantiteit. Amerika...

A European-Chinese Economic Alliance

Recently, I heard Trump (on TV) warning Europe and China about their (future) economic cooperation. That is quite ironic because he clearly prefers competition over cooperation. I suppose he also “forgot” about the ancient proverb: The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Nevertheless, recent European (and Chinese) communications do indeed suggest the possibility of...

Allergies (2)

About a month ago, I assumed that I suffered from food poisoning. I failed to understand its rather late timing. About week later, I ate my favourite cashew nuts - again. The next day, my bowel and stomach symptoms reappeared. Last weekend, I enjoyed an Indian lamb curry. The menu claimed it contained cashew nuts but I didn’t notice them (eg, crushed nuts).
