Tom and Sugar

Tom went to see the boxfight of Sugar Jackson vs Carlos Baldomir last weekend. He was interviewed shortly in this tv-item. Tom says he respects athletes a lot because they have to be at their best during the game. If they have a bad day, they lose. According to Tom it's not that bad to have a bad day on stage, because you can always hide it.

(thx to Gilles)

Thank you


Since the year is almost over and we shouldn't probably)expect any dEUS-news soon, I'd like to post a short thank you-message to all the people who contributed to this blog this year (Jean-Yves, Denis, Arthur, Eva, Thijs, Michael, Gilles, Harry, Paul, ... and all the other ones I forgot about). Thanks a lot for your input. It's been a great help to keep this blog up to date.
Also a big thank you to Christian and Tom for the 'leaking' of official news and all the extra's (the prelistening-session, the gigs, ....) that made 2008 a dEUS-year I'll never forget.
And ofcourse also a big thank you to Tom, Alan, Klaas, Mauro, Stéphane and the whole crew for being so omnipresent this year.
See you soon!
Bart
