Our Fragile Ways

"But for Lionheart who has done his share of running from the questions and can throw out blatant falsehoods such as "US Americans can only think black or white. They have no clue about grey zones." And his own form of peacemaking: "God, people, don't be so dense..." fo ...

Colombia is a very, very dangerous place.

It was late at night and the streets were empty as I made by way down the sidewalks of the commercial district. The cooling breeze off the Caribbean was bringing me the favorable scent of a large plumeria as I approached the dark corner of an old, overgrown residential mansion.

I would think there would be more Europeans here than Americans. ...

Pittsburgh Steelers in Barranquilla

Does anyone know how I can watch the Steelers in Barranquilla? I assume from asking around they do not have sport bars here for American football. Is there a particular cable company that can get me all their games.
Were going to the Super Bowl this year :) ...

How does Colombia breakdown the social classes? What type of interaction is their between the different classes and what do they think of each other (in general)?
