Written from the Venezuelan provinces, this blog started as private letters to my friends overseas, letters narrating the difficult days of the 2002/2003 strike in Venezuela. Unknowingly, I have written the diary of Venezuela slow descent into authoritarianism, the slow erosion of our liberties, the takeover of the country by a military caste, the surrendering of our soul to our inner demons.

Comments policy:
1) Comments are moderated except for the first day of the post publication where they will appear immediately. If you comment after the first day it may take up to a day or two for your note to appear.
2) Your post will appear if you follow the following rules. If you wrote in the open window period, I will be ruthless in erasing any comment that do not follow these rules, as well as those who replied to that off rule comment.
3)COMMENT RULES:
Do not be repetitive.
Do not bring grudges and fights from other blogs here (this is the strictest rule).
This is an anti Chavez blog, with 95% anti Chavez readers that have made up their minds over fourteen years and thus trying to prove us wrong is considered a troll. Still, you are welcome as a chavista to post, in particular if you want to explain us coherently as to why chavismo does this or that. Though I am not holding my breath.
Of course insults and put downs are frowned upon and I will be sole judge on whether to publish them.
Siempre bueno ver fotos,
ReplyDeletegracias al S.O.
While the rumors continue, they were intense, yesterday, regarding the 'entierro de Chávez en Barinas'. One student journalist even asking Patricia Poleo for proof. [Must be that "arrogant" middle class acting up again... ;-)]

Way off topic but the faithful babe 2nd from the foreground on the last photo got some damn serious muscle going on. Or maybe I'm wrong, this has happened before.

Excellent photos, steep hills, I can see why the military chose the ground they did.
If they can't embalm him, can't they stuff him and put him in the museum like in Planet of the Apes?
ReplyDeleteIn the good old days everybody came to see that Edward the Black Prince or Pedro the Cruel or others were really dead. It would last for months and making a big stink! So far we have yet to see a picture of himself laying in state and those with issue or those without, testifying that it is so. At this point I will take your SO's (got a better name for him like Pierre or Jean Paul or something?) for it.
ReplyDeleteThe last photo is interesting. Like Shakira sez, the hips don't lie. I would not want to bet what gender that butt belongs to considering who took the picture!

That building is hideous.
