Indignant Chainsaw views....

It's Monday again, the 44th day of 2017, for many people the weekend is over. The assembly line in the chicken slaughter factory is already running at full speed, the first containers with plastic junk from China have been discharged, the first welds been competently implemented and the first meters stucco already made. It's Monday morning, Eastern and southern European employees are doing their underpaid jobs in the wealthy West. Despite wailing blockheads, who discover that their "robbed job", after a migrant razia, becomes available again for them to pursue the American dream at a rate of $2 per hour and the bear of the Boar of Pig Paradise hopes that at the next missile launched from North Korea there will be an international leader on visit to answer real questions, the unsettling news from Netherlands yet makes the most impression on the sawdust maker. The fact than a lying and cheating State Secretary, who was forced, not so long ago, together with the Minister of Justice, to step back from his job, is promoted by his party colleague and now new, no, even newer, Minister of Justice, to join the Council of State, the highest advisory body of the Government and the highest administrative courts of the country , where he is going to give the Government recommendations in the field of legislation and administration. With a few more weeks to go before the parliamentary elections to be held in Netherlands, the current Prime Minister, party leader for the same party, in which the talent for obfuscation of facts and reports, in addition to fabricating facts and an aversion to the "ordinary" people, is as one of the requirements, refuses to have a debate with opponents in the election. The American way with only one difference, Mark Rutte uses full-page ads in newspapers instead of Twitter. Despite that there are other parties involved, the PVV of Wilders and the VVD of Rutte yet will take part in the elections, any other outcome than glory are of course alternative facts. With the beginning of the week also come the good weather forecasts, beginning Wednesday, temperatures reach spring-like heights and that's good news for the painting job ahead. Of course there are North Europeans who work for southern rates and the number is growing. Far away from city block-heating, traffic jams, Wilderian neighbours, vegetarian butchers and roaring Rutte realities, and despite the shared poverty and non- hidden defects, you can still enjoy life. Flour, water, rice, potatoes, spreads, fresh vegetables, occasionally a meatball, some fuel for the old car and firewood. Life in a nutshell. Today, yesterday sawn wood will be stacked to dry, the first fuel for the next season. Burning fig tree wood could cause "toxic fumes", but we do use it for many years, maybe that's the reason that every now and then we have such an indignant look to the world around us....

Summer is over (and that's a good thing)

The summer this year was an ongoing repeatment of sunshine, hot weather and hardly any rain. It lasted months, this torture of nature. For m...
