Yes.. in Dutch, I am a notorious Lurker.
But in English/American, it's somebody who´s always hanging around, without contributing anything...am I right?

Hi Rick, especially, as a no longer Flying Dutchman, (too old) I can assures you: If you visit your local beer parlor, the Duchies way of lurking is done while holding your mouth right under the tap, scout's honor! Skip the glasses, cans and all other in between containers at all costs ... Noughty

I tried that trick last weekend and the bartender broke a bottle of rum over my head. At least that's what they told me... something about rum and beer, never fear. They were very, very wrong. Gotta love the Dutch, though! I think I'll go buy one of those Heineken mini-kegs tonight and try it in the safety of my home.

AUUUUUUUUUU! (= ouuuuuuuuuuch) please don't take that greenish export H brand stuff serious; tastes in the ratings here nearly as horses **** (see below). a great many better brands are sold here, but Heinzio's marketing efforts killed them nearly almost all. had a friend working in this H large factory about 25 years ago. very modern factory then already, they fired all mankind and operated the night shift by force of three humans, pouring the stuff out of them machines by the 100 barrels a minute. on top of that they used water from a nearby lake where a lot of eel lives, and **** in it too, as do the fishermen who fish for unsmoked eel. (eel eats corpses they say). Fi go for the Grolsch brand, you can use the red rubber stop rings as guitar strap-locks, a real musician's drink. or go for Belgian, even better. nt
