Power Tools Weekend

A digression: Though some people may see a link with Blacka. Why oh why do people who have spent the week indoors at desks and similar work place sites feel the overwhelming need to rush out into their gardens on a beautiful peaceful Saturday morning and spoil it by using every power tool ever invented, the noisier the better? Is it because the frustration of working zombie-like in the modern economy can only be exorcised by the kind of sense of control you get from operating such things as fast cars and chain saws?

A better form of release from your demons would be gained by hard physical work, using spade, hand saw and sledgehammer. It may also earn you the gratitude of your neighbour.
