Tomorrow: block all incoming traffic on the firewall, lock access to versioning system and go to Brussels crying like a baby to beg this "government" of ours to let me pollute at a reasonable price.

Enough with the sarcasms. The thing that sickens me the most is that nobody dares to teach those moaners a basic lesson in world economy.
If they want to get a grip over oil prices, they should either start drilling for rotten dinosaurs in their backyard, or enlist in the USMC to wage war on more oil producing countries...

Last night, only minutes after the last criminal in Belgium had been arrested, a fearless hit squad of our Police force arrested 6 folks deflating SUV tires parked down a popular avenue here in Brussels.

Of course, it's much easier to arrest a peaceful programmer waging a war against stupid cars than the money launderers behind the steering wheels of those monsters.

Sorry but I don't buy the safety argument. SUV owners started this by choosing to drive a panzer into an urban environment, jeopardizing the safety of other drivers, bikers and pedestrians. The "freedom" argument is weak as well, then I want to be free to buy an automatic riffle at the corner grocery store... wouldn't that be great?

The good news is that the commando who was arrested was actually a bunch of copycat attackers and not Les Flagadas who started raiding SUVs earlier this week. It seems that gas-guzzler deflating is becoming a grassroot effort in Brussels now... Keep it up guys!

The good folks of Belgium have become accustomed to the Welfare State to a point of non return. Gas price breaks the roof? Don't worry, our beloved and fearless elite takes care of this! If you're a cab or truck driver, they won't let you behind! Just pretend you are going on strike and the government will give you some cash right away... At least I know now that they are sucking half of my salary and other freelance business related revenues to allow paupers to keep up screwing the planet with their cars and fuel powered central warming!

But why should the State refrain from helping other people in need? In regard to the current global economic situation where we have a "weak" Dollar and a "strong" Euro, I feel that we, loyal Apple customers, are eligible for a little help from our great and kind Federal State. So, when is Mr Verhofstadt going to propose to pay the difference between a EUR 199,00 iPod nano and its normal USD 199,00 price tag? Now that would be real social progress for the masses!

Neat : Guerrilla gardening is the art of using a piece of land which you do not own to grow something.

When I first heard about something called Fuck You and your H2, I though it was the site of a bunch of die hard tag soup lovers... I must probably need some days off as It turned out that it was actually a healthy website of funny Hummer bashers!

On an ordinary day in a country during peacetime...

Impaled birds are roasting behind shop windows. Dismembered bodies are decorating market stalls. On the bridges of boats twitching fish are slowly asphyxiating. Dismal lives are spent in foul-smelling hangars. Live animals have their beaks, teeth and testicles forcibly removed. Specially designed feeding funnels are forced into throats. Everywhere there are lorries stuffed with the condemned. Those that will have their throats cut, bleed and be carved up.

On this ordinary day, there are millions filled with fear and suffering. In this country at peace; torture and murder are a part of daily life.

On may 17, there will be a Veggie Pride in Paris

Oh what delightful a surprize : Bush administration proposed today to give managers of the national forests more discretion to approve logging and commercial activities with less evaluation of potential damage to the environment...

So you thought that being vegan would make you a real straight edge harder than the hard line? Now is the time to move to breatharianism! (Thanks Steffi)

Today is a car-free day in Brussels. I just woke up and the city looks and sounds quiet like it never was. I wandered into the streets without having to take care about cars. I love that. I wish every sunday was car-free!

Bush now invokes national security to ruin an Alaska wildlife refuge...
