Elections in Belgium [Random Bloggin´] — FOB Antwerpen @ 9:21 am

We all wound up sick to death of the French election, alter seeing the blessed pair everywhere on every TV, radio, newspaper and conversation. Is France really that important? They are the best example of how NOT to do things, the embodiment of a brake to development. Well, now there is the Belgian election. Believe me, it seems that the French was more important in Belgium. I did not hear a thing until today. And they beat the French by zillions of fun. They say Belgium is “the country of the bizarre”. It is: 3 languages, impressive contrast between Wallonia and Flanders, the salad bowl, in parts dirty, overpolluted and noisy and in parts quiet, nice and Flemish of Brussels, and all the expatriates, immigrants and opportunists. Now the elections are also strange: NEE campaign. That´s what happens when voting is not a right but an obligation.

But, wait a second and think. Is it strange or plainly obvious. Three months ago I was chatting with my sister about founding a “Beer & Blowjob” political party. It does not take a marketing genius (well, for me these two words are a misnomer) to think that.
