Christmas spirit with Hugo the poet


Yesterday morning on the state television, president Chavez in a black suit and tie was reciting poems with the support of a acoustic guitar player. Am I dreaming or what? Anyway, it may be construed as a way of promoting the true Christmas spirit in Venezuela. And Christmas is close, with lots of Caracas-people coming to the island every day. Luckily they have mounted a neon christmas tree outside our window.
Chavez, by the way, has now also established a formal collective greeting to be used by the military: "Fatherland, socialism or death". Will somebody pinch my arm.
