Re: Steve Kellerman Visit Report #2
Date: 01 May 1998
Subject partook of party with approximately 300,000 other individuals to celebrate the Birthday of the Queen of the Netherlands. Party exhibited similarities to New Orleans Mardi Gras, featuring loud colors, outrageous costumes, lots of music, and large quantities of beer. According to government sources, local authorities suspend sales tax on this day in honor of Queen, which accounts for the massive Flea Market which the city becomes. ["Flea Market" is a registered trademark of the Band "Flea Market" and any similarity between band and party is purely coincidental]

The individual holding the two beers in photo above (a host known as "Martha") asked report to clarify that she was HOLDING these beers only, and that while Subject and other host consumed significant amounts of Beer, her primary interest was the flea market, where she purchased for 2.5 Guilders, one "Little Snoopy" pull toy, pictured below, as companion for larger Snoopy Pull Toy previously secured by her sister, aka Molly. Both toys are allegedly for child arriving in September, though Martha carried or pulled the toy throughout the day in a manner that suggested great personal enjoyment of said toy.

Subject ate traditional Dutch snacks including smoked Herring, seen here being smoked.

Subject drank traditional Dutch Beer for most of the day, but discovered that local Irish pub (see Report #1) was also celebrating Queen's Day, on excuse that the Orange, White and Green flag of Ireland is "Verrrrry similar, if you be lookin' at it in a particoolar way..." to the Red, White and Blue flag of Netheralands.

Here, agent must report strange behaviour in which subject and host unit Martha began talking to a red bic pen. Calling the pen "Timmy," Martha unit indicated that all should drink a toast to "Timmy", which was done, at which point subject stated that "Timmy" should also have a taste of Guinness, at which point aforementioned pen was swizzled. "Timmy", the ensuing conversation revealed, had over the last several days gone to a blues concert at the Paradiso and danced on the bar, gone to a jazz concert and danced on the table, went to a Mexican restaraunt and tasted a virgin Piņa Colada, and had a candlelight cruise on the canals where he speared Dutch cheese with his head.

"Timmy," by day's end, had to be carried home.
More news as it happens...
