This is the big week in Barranquilla

Carnival time, must be a lot of parties and parades.

But, some locals do not really like Carnival in Barranquilla, they leave for the week because of all the drunks in the street.

and, Shakira's not coming home, because she is having too much fun at the grammies:

By Sean Nelson

I don't know much about television, but if I were in charge of a network, you can be sure that Shakira would have her own weekly prime-time show in which she would be required to repeat the showstopping explosion of rhythm, melody and undulating sexuality that she performed with Wyclef Jean about an hour into the 2007 Grammy Awards. Compared to "Hips Don't Lie" (they don't!), the rest of the show was pretty lackluster. It's not exactly a fair comparison — most three-alarm fires would be dull compared to Shakira. Not to say that Grammy didn't try.




Paz y prosperidad para Colombia.

Where do we go from here?

They could make you a Shakira model. All the dolls are custom made to order. I'm saving up for my fourth one because I like variety.

Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult.

Variety is good, but if I can get a Shakira model that is good enough for me. I'll start saving my pesos.... :-)
