Daily DeMo: Don't use your camera in Amsterdam

The Daily DeMo - Edition 17

DD126 :: Saturday - I learned that the GAO is the Government Accountability Office who is supposed to audit where all of the money goes that gets spent in the country. You know, like when they say that we spent $5 million on the war in Iraq, what does the money trail look like? Who writes the checks?

DD127 :: Sunday - Bacterial meningitis takes about 48 hours to ruin your whole body. Dave Kirkwood gave his testimony in Pathways tonight. 14 years ago he got bacterial meningitis and they amputated his legs from the knees down, and his left arm. If you know Dave and are reading this and you haven't heard his story yet, it will definitely make you think and be thankful for your blessings.

DD128 :: Monday - Gas is about 10 cents cheaper in Kansas City than it is in Wichita. And it's about 10 cents cheaper than that in Emporia if you venture away from the stations closest to the interstate.

DD129 :: Tuesday - Information overload! I went to a conference today and learned that it really doesn't hurt to get out of my comfort zone and meet people.

DD130 :: Wednesday - My friend Jeremy has done 340 jumps with his parachute. I watched him fold his parachute, and learned that the pack weighs 25 pounds. The force of when you pull the cord and the 'chute comes out is equivalent to 4Gs of pressure.

DD131 :: Thursday - Brandon told me about the ethnic dividing lines in Wichita.

DD132 :: Friday - In Amsterdam there are "models" who stand in windows dressed in whatever they can find. If the window is lit by red lights, the model is a woman looking for company. If it's lit by blue lights, it's a man. And if you take pictures of the models, they will chase you and throw your camera in the river.
