I believe that the Dutch have earned the dubious title of the Argentineans of Europe.....

Now that hurts!


Oooh, Henry come on.....! you must be.... er... proud ?!, I do not know what to say.... apologize, cry or laugh....

Apologize ? while I guess I should, not really, as you have really earned it since you have come so close to win it so many times now !! so technically, that qualifies you guys for such dubious title.....

Cry ? Yes, I guess since to add to the existing supply would be somehow disastrous, but at the same time....

Laugh ? Yes too, as it is really a joke, and then again you need more to really become a true Argentinean, since there is:

The Tango, the conflict in defining a true identity, the longing for former better times, pre-Per¢n (and Evita), Mafalda, Chimichurri, Gauchos, and many other things, that I, [a mere peon, as I am not an Argentinean myself], do not know the full rainbow of things that makes an Argentinean....

So take it lightly Henry, you are just learning to be an Argentinean.

Do not forget that there are some benefits too, once you become fully qualified, everyone will tolerate you [and forgive you], without giving you real hell for whatever you do [since they will be aware of your handicap].... he, he, he....
