The Audi symbol looks like the Olympic rings and it makes me uncomfortable

I take it as the Olympics should be something sacred, and Audi is getting the associated prestige by having a similar symbol.

going on tangents,
dassault , what about dassault
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affaire_Agusta-Dassault
^ belgium, eighties- early nineties, au siège belge du groupe italien, smells like gladio(nato's secret army) concerns o o o 8O
(also Juncker was demissioned for gladio-sus, then became eu-commity president(unelected))

The Agusta scandal (French: Affaire Agusta, Dutch: Agustaschandaal), alternatively known as the Agusta–Dassault Case, was a major political scandal which occurred in Belgium during the 1990s, based on allegations that two multinational companies had used bribery to secure large defence procurement contracts. The companies in question, Agusta and Dassault, bribed numerous political office-holders in 1988 in order to secure a large order of Agusta A109 helicopters and the contract for re-fitting Belgian F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets respectively. The scandal came to light during investigations into the death of the socialist politician André Cools in 1991 and an official enquiry was opened in 1993. Numerous senior figures in both Walloon and Flemish socialist parties were implicated, including the incumbent Secretary General of NATO Willy Claes who was forced to resign.

The Agusta scandal was the first of a series of highly publicised scandals in Belgium. It was followed by the revelations about the "Hormone Mafia", the Dioxin affair, and the Dutroux affair.

belgium, the killing of police over meat/cattle growing hormones
or other scandals as mentionned and more
belgium, it's a bit the america(usa) of europe

My mom's birthday and I already bought her three presents.

I will try to buy one more tomorrow, if not Friday and a card.

One of the presents I got my mom is a DVD set of all the James Bond films with Roger Moore in the lead.

I can remember eating a vol au vent when I was a kid and I really enjoyed it but that's the one and only time I've ever had one and I'll never have one again simply because I don't want to ruin the memory

My mom won't let me go out on April 4th because she’s worried I might encounter evil spirits during the festival.On this day, people will burn joss paper for their ancestors' souls at crossroads, attracting evil spirits to gather.
