Being on a virtual Balcony, watching the sorry shows that the corporate world is staging, and heckling them at will is, I can assure you, a pure delight. But as is usually the case, virtual heckling is no match for the real thing, and for this reason we regret not being able to attend yesterday, the climactic finale of one of the sorriest shows ever presented in the history of corporate arts. The General Shareholders' Meeting of Fortis Bank in Brussels voted for the 4th time and finally managed to approve the bank's takeover from the French BNP Paribas but not before its chairman was showered with shoes, coins and other missiles by spectators/shareholders somewhat angered by losing their life savings/pensions/jobs/dignity over the ordeal that started 9 months ago. We understand there is a repeat performance in nearby Utrecht today, so if you are in the region make sure mot to miss it.
