http://www.astateofmind.co.ukSaw it last Friday. Very impressive to see how a government can influence a person's mind, desires and needs. How life is like in North Korea. An eye-opener.
A thought that sprung to mind was: if Koreans think the way they are told to, who says we are not in the same boat? The 'history' books from there are hilarious to most other people, making false claims like MLK being killed by the FBI etc. But how do we know they're false? Who knows what really happened in history? History's written by the winners, not the losers. And it's always second hand. We have to trust the word of the witnesses and the people who transfer the info. Perception of truths, agenda's and just plain lies get in between somewhere. And somewhere along the line, true facts are lost. Shame.
The truth is (like always) somewhere in between. And I'm not quite sure I can handle it.
Where's Jack when you need him?

Hi Niek,
Jim Storteboom here, from Lamont, Michigan, USA. In your world travels, visit us in West Michigan sometime. I can't offer you a ride in a european supercar, but if you've never experienced the brute power of a true american muscle car, I can offer you a ride in an original 1970 Dodge Coronet R/T 440 6-Pack. No good on a slalom course, but raw straightline power to burn!
I'm a 42 year old Firefighter, & former US Navy Nuclear Submarine Veteran, married with 4 daughters & 1 son. The only Storteboom's around here are immediate family. Have heard there are some in Lynden, Washington, & some in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
Enjoy Asia, if that's possible.
Hi Jim,
Sorry it took so long for me to reply!
The Dodge sounds great, I must say! If I'm ever in the US, I'll be sure to stop by!
