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.

Proof that Venezuelans don’t lose their sense of humor is this billboard parodying the Johny Walker ads: ” I have been walking for over a month and this a…….. doesn’t leave……”. Keep Walking. Note the Venezuelan flag in Johny Walker’s hand.


Military underwear




Oscar Sabater sent photos from the 24 hour protest, had to put this one up, even the Beatles are involved now!. More in the Pictures section.
The sign says “not a step back” the protest cry of the opposition.

I have taken many pictures of the girl on the left, but this one by radcap is certainly much better than any that I have taken and the best proof that “Blog Day for Venezuela” worked well. I don’t know the source of it, unless radcap is Venezuelan. She actually just stands on a truck that sells bottled water to marchers. Some will call her a capitalist pig, I call her delightful, thus I post it for posterity as another important document of our political crisis.




Military hens do not cackle, they belch Long live the revolution, in hell!


The stree is ours, not a step back!
zonageek posted tonight a very nice set of pictures from the New York protest from 1st. Ave. with 47th. St. to Bolivar’s statue in Central Park. It was cold there! At least we do it in the warmth of Caracas!



There were dogs…… ……and nuns….. …..and pretty women….


they came early……………….. and were still there late……..


some prayed others played


for some sleep came easy others were split



At least something that joins us Supreme Court: To err is political Chavez racist! learn from Mandela


The two sided poster


National Guard: Your sign is horror Acosta Carles: Not one fart more, national shame


Silence please, half a millon terrorists deliberating

In this game we are all important..

The prostitutes of Venezuela and the happy girls of this country want to make clear that Hugo Chavez is NOT our son.
