China

Who said, "We´re number one. We're number one." ? Certainly not the US. referring to Lori Harfenist her column of January 28 2011.

I saw the women Australian open tennis final on Saturday. A national from tiny Belgium, Kim Clijsters, won the final from Chinese coming tennis hero Li Na.
And yes, they played a great match. Not the tennis from another planet but human tennis.

History shows that China is coming as a tennis nation. Li Na is the first Chinese finalist of a Grand Slam. It became possible just 2 years after the possibility for Chinese tennis players to choose an own coach.

Help, the Chinese are coming?
No way, if they are good and fit in the worldwide system they are more than welcome.
Beside all this, the Chinese is a fresh woman. A new role model.

reshuffle

Two weeks ago the Works Council received a report. It's rubbish I told the Works Council in a mail.

At last Monday's meeting I heard the chairman saying that the report has to be reshuffled. She said it has to be changed because it didn't meet her standards.

It was so sexy to hear that from her. I keep it in my head; to be reshuffled. Wall Street shuffle. The world shuffles every now and then.
So why can't we. I'm still rehearsing.

the rat

We don't see each other but we communicate, not much but still we do. Sometimes we hear from each other by a message, a note, an email, rumors. Then suddenly we meet in the underground parking garage where I stall my bike and where you lend a bike.
Like rats we meet when you wanted to go in to bring back the bike. I opened the door and there you stood.
"how are you?"
"fine, how are you?"
Like social rats we talked about the rumors. Things which will going to happen with the implementation of the Organizational Plan, the possibilities the Organizational Plan gives, the opportunities of it.

Sometimes it gives a good feeling to be a rat down in the basement of the building. It feels good.
