They should have said "Internationally Famous".<BR/><BR/>Arnie is of course a famous Austrian. Which is why he can't speak properly. Aren't they going to change the constitution so they can make him President? Anything to stop him making Terminator 4...Brian o vretanoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982178574498189251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155163465692365863.post-81955542090288229612007-11-24T03:23:00.000+00:002007-11-24T03:23:00.000+00:00I only know Van Damme.

He apparently "had" 10,000 women...<BR/><BR/>Georges Remi, better known as Hergé, the creator of "Tin Tin".<BR/><BR/>All the Flemish painters (like Reubens).<BR/><BR/>And how could we forget Jean Baptiste "Django" Reinhardt, inventor of the two-finger guitar playing technique???<BR/><BR/>Or John Massis, the man with the strongest teeth in the world (how do they know?)???Brian o vretanoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982178574498189251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155163465692365863.post-51027722254249579152007-11-23T17:47:00.000+00:002007-11-23T17:47:00.000+00:00Audrey Hepburn was born there, but brought up in H...Audrey Hepburn was born there, but brought up in Holland. I think they are stretching it a bit...<BR/><BR/>I wonder if enough of them are alive, to, say, form a football team - or a string quartet ;-)Brian o vretanoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982178574498189251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155163465692365863.post-37230451288198505412007-11-23T15:20:00.000+00:002007-11-23T15:20:00.000+00:00As soon as you asked "name a famous Belgian" I ans...As soon as you asked "name a famous Belgian" I answered:<BR/>Jean-Claude Van Damme aka Jean-Claunde Van Dumbass. I would have won cuz, much to the dismay of many, he's real.<BR/><BR/>Also, those other famous ones, I think we're taking the term "famous" and stretching until it means "people who are known within 100 miles of where they're born".<BR/>With the exception of Audrey Hepburn (which was a surprise) I have no clue who they are. Admittly, I only clicked on Film/TV stars.Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12525264720105877075noreply@blogger.com
