I’ve noticed that I get very little participation when I write about Hugo Chavez and Latin America here on this blog. That’s not a problem, I understand. If I hadn’t spent a large portion of my younger years down there, I probably wouldn’t either. But anyway, in the interests of keeping This Ain’t Hell a little more manageable, I’ve started another blog called Tall and Rich which will focus on Latin American politics.
A Panamanian friend of mine once asked me why I liked Central America so much. I answered that only in Latin America can I be tall and rich – so that’s where the blog name came from.
Those of you who did like my commentary on my adopted continent, please join me there, too.

Ya know… preaching to the converted isn’t all that satisfying.
Chavez is important, and Belize is on my list of probables.
