Necessity is irrelevant in this case. A monarch works as a symbol for the people, something invoking a feeling of patriotism. Nearly all the Dutch loved their queen, and so will nearly all Dutch love their king.
The monarch does not have any political power whatsoever, and only serves a ritual, symbolical and diplomatic purpose. The only argument against having a monarch would be ethics or the monetary costs of having one. However, people tend to favor tradition and cultural pride over such trivialities.

In short, the reasons for a monarch are pride and tradition, which are more important than you may think.

That's what I thought. Same applies for the UK.
Well I can't say it's a bad thing rather it's a good thing. Preserve culture and tradition, don't let it become dissolved by neglect.

My woodsawing skills are actually quite good.
In terms of speed that is. Years of pruning and chopping down trees have made me skilled with a handsaw and chainsaw.
Still can't saw straight though.

So not fabulous?

Whats its speed? You cant possibly be as bad as panthers with 1 Mbps?


quoted by ISP as 10mbps (so not as bad as panther)
 
but now 10mbps is pretty much the bottom third of internet speeds in Singapore now... with everyone jumping to fiber (and myself paying more for slower speed)

Nice boat.


Can't wait for the game.


I was talking about sawing branches. In that case drawing the path is not that useful.

Ahh ok.

 
Nice boat.

lol this has gotta be the weirdest game trailer I've ever seen :p


You mean the best.

@kai, a bit. Gonna give it 24 - 30 hrs of burn in (physical and brain, though not sure if the latter can take the beating). I take a more practical approach to burn in though so no 300 hours of abstinence (and cheating by sneaking a listen or two).
