...gets a prize and parade

 Dutch store owner, sick of shoplifters, decides to give the 10,000th shoplifter a big prize, including party hat, cake and an in-store marching band.

That one's easy...he said:

Hage, hage! Der flutter ich mineche ein toot, toot. Graben dei signe und comen wit mein. Here' s onze winnaar, het 10,000ste winkelheftoestel. Hier bent u prijzen, bloemen en een cake!
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.

Uh..... Yeah thats what I thought he said too.  :ack:
YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE
AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU HAVE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

Another Toyota board has a Dutch member from Ridderkerk, The Netherlands.  I asked him about the video and got this reply:


"this is made as a commercial for one of the big supermarket chains in our country that's called HEMA.

The HEMA is well known for good quality at reasonable prices, they're a good store to buy cake and household goods...

As you may understand, it's a setup, it shows the friendlyness of the HEMA, which ( by experience ) is real, it's a real Dutch supermarket and they allways have made a good trade by having the prices right and being polite to the shopping public...

The manager congratulates her, she's the 10,000th shoplifter and he disses her just by giving her extra presents...

The sign on the door says ( it's not to translate literally,,,

In case of burglary we usually directly contact the police..."


Since he doesn't directly translate the audio for us, I'll go with abnormal's version....    :thumbs:
My goal in life is to be as a good a person as my dog already thinks I am.
