Great website Marina! Only problem is that …

Great website Marina! Only problem is that I am use to logging in near the top of the page. Since I have already registered, I don’t need to do that again, rather to login, I need to go to the bottom of the comment section. I’m just not use to that. Thanks!

    Dear rijk. Super Wow! I count myself as one who goes the extra mile for do something, and you have been a great help for me. Because of my misspelling of the Dutch word onbeshchoft, I just did the best I could to guess at it’s meaning. Wow to think that I was such a bad boy in my grandmas’ eyes, ….ouch! Oh well, she is fine in Heaven right now, and I grew up quite a bit straighter since then. Hey, you have helped quite a bit, rijk, because now when someone goggles umbellskuff, they will get the correct answer, HERE! Your intuition on how to spell the word correctly, or your general knowledge has corrected this matter. The only other Dutch word that comes to mind is Oliebollen, the donut with raisins and powdered sugar. My grandma told me I was Dutch, I told her no, I’m an American, born and raised here, don’t know how to speak Dutch, and it took me sooooooo long to figure out the story of the little boy who stopped the dike from leaking water into Holland to save his country. Same story as the folks that should have known better that live in New Orleans. Live below sea level and EXPECT trouble. Thanks again and best wishes to you rijk!!! P.S. That botaletter tastes great. Yum…http://www.flickr.com/photos/malisonian/79471740/

    Hi rijk! Hmm… I wanted to check my word “umbellskuff,” but I couldn’t find it in the Dutch to English translator on line. Well anyway, here is the story, when I was about eight years or so, I remember my grandma saying that I acted unbellskuff, but never knew what it meant. I am 56 years old now and about ten years ago I was in an airport in Amsterdam and asked a Dutch speaking person that could also speak English, what does that word mean? He said that it basically means not well behaved, a little on the wild side, not as disciplined as my grandmother wanted. I forgot why she said it, maybe because I wanted another slice of that tasty homemade, “boataletter.” Anyway, it is wrong to ask for more than one pastry at a time, because of the thrift of some Dutch folks. Sorry about my incorrect spelling on these Dutch words. Hope that I’ve been some help to you.

    Thanks Mr. BillyB. for the reply. I wasn’t sure that you remembered me. Hope for the best for you, with Twitter and your knowledge in linking connections. Regarding driven, that’s me, and I try to instill that in my son. Bye.

    Dear Mr. BillyB. Thought that I could leave you a thank you note, because I owe you one. You are the one that taught me to “cut and paste” here, maybe a year ago. And that has really helped me out at this place: http://qna.live.com/ShowUser.aspx?uid=2A37DF14AD70476885F899A22059D2CA&view=0#qList Same name, different avatar. I couldn’t take it anymore at Ms.Marina’s website HFW due to the language thrown at her. At HFW we were not suppose to google stuff, but at the place I’m at now, it sure comes in handy. Plus a little mental stimulation, the work is kinda hard, and the pay is zero. I will move on from there soon as I will appreciate doing something with monetary remuneration. Hope that you are doing fine in Canada. I miss Ms. Marina videos, but I had to move on. :sad:
