Tell us more about this "land reform" in Central America. Does that
mean that you were trying to take land away from whom it legally
belonged and give it to someone else? That sounds like some kind of
Robin Hood adventure to me although it's hard to imagine your fat ass
in green tights and carrying a bow and arrow. Sounds like you were
ahead of your time and should have waited for Hugo Chavez in
Venezuela. His little adventure in socialism and seizing the assets
of others isn't turning out very well though.


Legally belonged? That's funny. In much of Central America, land was
stolen from the indigent people by the oligarchy, aided by the military
and sometimes aided by the good old USA, not unlike it was done in this
country, eh?
