I will be going on my yearly vacation. Thanks to this new software I will be able to post while away, but obviosuly I will not be as in touch as usual. In fact, there are eight days on my vacation when I will have no Internet connection or possibility of having one. I will only post in this web address as the old system does not allow me to do remote posting.
The Devil's Excrement
Observations focused on the problems of an underdeveloped country, Venezuela, with some serendipity about the world (orchids, techs, science, investments, politics) at large. A famous Venezuelan, Juan Pablo Perez Alfonzo, referred to oil as the devil's excrement. For countries, easy wealth appears indeed to be the sure path to failure. Venezuela might be a clear example of that.

That is why Venezuela is where it is: from one big vacation to the other. 🙂 Just kidding.
But I am sure Chavez will announce something on the 30th while the whole opposition is on the beach.

Miguel, you certainly deserve a time-out. Have a great time, relax, refresh yourself, and come back with your energy renewed.
