The Devil's Excrement





  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.

Almost two weeks ago, in his 249th Alo Presidente when he heard, while on live TV, that the Viaduct had felt down, Chavez minimized the impact of the news and stated the following

"El señor Viaducto se cayó. Pues nos hizo un favor, nos ahorró el trabajo de tumbarlo

[Mr. Viaduct felt down. It made us a favor, it saved us the work to demolish it]

Of course, regardless of what Mr. President said in his Sunday show, the Viaduct had to be demolished.

So everything was settled for the Viaduct to fall down TODAY. I guess that the day was chosen so that Mr. President would say “mission accomplished" tomorrow in his Sunday show...¦my mistake, re-reading the news I learned that the initial date was Thursday the 30th but because the new cardinal was coming back to town, the government did not want to have the Viaduct falling that day.

Anyways, the Viaduct is definitely anti-Chavez and has a mind of its own, or was paid by the CIA

Guess what?

It did not fall!

Not enough dynamite..

Of course now that the whole thing failed, there was supposed to be a preplanned second phase. According to the CAVIM (the company in charge of the dynamite) president this was just a very successful “phase 1"! Funny that we were not informed of the phases before. But we were dutifully informed instead that very sophisticated earthquake equipment was going to be installed to monitor and avoid any negative effects and exactly measure the speed and acceleration of the “mass of earth".


BTW, isn't it  the company in charge of the explosives the same CAVIM company that produces the endogenous Zamorana pistol, that is supposed to be the first endogenous product of the Chavista goverment? And isn't  his president the one that said that his company, that produces arms and explosives, had a “social objective"?

As my boss says sometimes, the advantage of having a blog is that, regardless of our old age (particularly Miguel), we bloggers (and ghosts) get a good memory.
