the man, the legend that is... ARNAUD VAN GALEN

[CharlieCooper]

this guy is awesome! he is helpful and thoughtful and always wants to teach people things. while his late organisation of meeting up (note: didn't say disorganised) drives me mad, i don't mind that much because he's a good friend. he has this great hotel that you are always allowed to stay at and his dog is nice.

why not post something you like about arnaud too?

some of my favourite snaps (arnaud, can you tell which one i DIDN'T put up? hint: it involves a cupboard

I agree, Charlie. Arnaud is awesome! So many times he's given me a ride back home from a competition at the most impossible hours.

Favourite snap:

Well Arnaud has improved his time management a lot lately, so we probably never seem his late at a competition any more. It is fun with Arnaud around and race 4x4 or 5x5 with him. If you can say , Arnaud is my friend you are lucky.

Keep up your positive few of the world Arnaud....

Oh, and of course: Happy Birthday, Arnaud!!!

Arnaud is totally awesome.. Putting me up in Holland ALL the time!

Happy Birthday!

I don´t personally know the "Master Of Keyhole", but in the vids on youtube that he made, I get a very kindly and humble feeling about him.

My first experience with Arnaud was him running up to me and Charlie and hugging us, then we went to disneyland. which was nice

He's wonderful and can fit into surprisingly small places for the purpose of 'knock knock' jokes.
Happy birthday!

P.S I love his voice

I had the privilege of meeting and hanging out with Arnaud at the French Open.

One of my favorite memories at a cubing tournament involves Arnaud, a shopping cart, and a girl.

It was hilarious.. You had to have been there.

Charlie will probably remember.

 

[CharlieCooper]

i don't just remember, i have a video

Arnaud smiles when he is angry.
I also like him when he is shaved..........

I have THAT much respect for him that I scramble HIS cubes instead the other way round: http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b73/WuZweng/IMG_0491.jpg

[Ryanrex116]

I remember his last birthday. I wonder how many puzzles we will get this year?

 

[MichaelErskine]

Happy Birthday Arnaud. I look forward to meeting you next weekend at UK Masters.

 

[Feanaro]

Happy Birthday Arnaud! I look forward to meeting you at worlds!

Edit: It seems that you and I are tied with our best times in competition, 16.91! Weird isn't it?

 

[Mike Hughey]

Happy Birthday, Arnaud! I look forward to seeing you again at US Nationals!

How very American of you to be born the day after our bicentennial!

 

[JustinJ]

Happy Birthday Arnaud, you're one of my favourite cubers

If you're going to US Nationals, it's only fair that you come to the Canadian Open too

 

[Anthony]

Happy Birthday Arnaud, you're one of my favourite cubers

If you're going to US Nationals, it's only fair that you come to the Canadian Open too

Or you can just come to US Nationals. It's only fair that if he crosses an ocean, you can cross a border.
