Things that make you go hmmm

–NGO says Venezuela occupies
position #130 out of 159 countries in terms of corruption ranked from
least to worst. Venezuela was above only two Latin American countries.

–Tyromaniac reports that “Lost: Everybody Hates Hugo” is the top video download at Apple’s iTunes store. And there is no iTunes store in Venezuela! Another triumph for Apple and Steve Jobs!

-The Prosecutor indicted a
former Vice-Minister of Finance for the “missing” US$ 1.5 billion from
the Macroeconomic Stabilization Fund. Curiously they did not indict his
boss who took the blame for it at the time. Of course, he is the
current Minister of Finance! It helps to be in high places sometimes.
