8 years and more than 3000 posts ago

Even though the first posts were written in December 2002, the blog came on line on January 6 2003.  More than 3000 posts, including about two hundred from other hands who brought great stuff and should thus be acknowledged.  And as always, if people did not read it, the blog would have stopped long ago.  It is thus a celebration of long time readers, even those who hate it.

  7. Congratulations on a wonderful blog.It certainly takes dedication and creativity to keep it up.

    I started reading this blog off and on about 5 years ago, and then began reading daily about 2 years ago.This is the main blog I read for info on Venezuela.

    I admire your humor, wit and ability to bring the real situation into focus for all of us to get a glimpse of what it is like to live in Venezuela during these past years.

    Many thanks.

    Seen this?
    "Rodriguez´ trademark verbal incontinence has been running fairly wild lately, causing us to wonder if the increasingly uneven A/G will reach the end of his term."
    Did the US diplomat know what they were talking about?

    "
    Venezuela ready to buy Azerbaijani oil to meet contractual obligations to Belarus
    "

    http://naviny.by/rubrics/english/2011/01/06/ic_news_259_358832/

    Um...will Venezuela make money in this case?

    or

    Belarus is just another Cuba for Venezuela?

    Free oil for friendship anyone?

    Please ask the Vietnam communist goverment for this kind of friendship. Won't be turned down. Period

    As the contributor of 0.1% of those 3000 posts, I will gladly take 0.1% of the praise. Though I have no problem yielding the other 99.9%.

    Daniel, as long as you're writing here, I will continue to read. Count on that - though I know it doesn't count for much in the midst of all the uncertainty. Without being trite, please (I wish this phrase didn't call to mind a certain individual, but it fits too perfectly not to use) stay the course.

    This is an informative blog read by someone from neighbouring Trinidad and Tobago where we await the Chavez invasion.
