capitalism *is* fun :-)

Whenever I wake up in a bad mood, I read the local news. Only then. And I always get a good laugh. The local right-wing is pushing to create a special task force to fight against poverty. I can imagine … Hans Zimmer for the background music and highly trained military entering your house, filling up your fridge with food, turning up the heat, maybe putting in some Porsche design furniture, and leaving a fat cheque on top of a MacBook Air on your desk. All this will be done quietly, not to disturb the sleep of those that are too lazy to get off their arses and get a job. On their way out, they will also fill your tank with gas. 

Gas prices soared to a record high here, and crude oil is spending it’s weekend at 101.84. Welcome to the 3 digit oil price era

Russia holds elections today. I am going to miss Mr. Putin
