Meanwhile In Thailand...

so much for dreary talk that goes nowhere and is forgotten seconds after the traffic jams have gone. this week we had drama at the un! forget all the season premieres and new television shows, we had drama translated by a bland translator chick. i know i could never work as a translator at the un. i would be all - what? hugo, you did not just go there. woo!

"the devil was here"? and then you crossed yourself AND looked heavenward (we assume heaven is up). at that point i would have been pulling out my phone to frantically text a friend while still trying to translate the next bit. girl, you watching the live coverage of the un? you don't have that channel? no worries, i know it's gonna be on tv later, over and over and over again, like maybe every 15 minutes, cos you know that's how the news do. the president of venezuela just called george bush the devil. and he repeated himself, just in case you missed it. then he crossed himself (protection or in case he was blaspheming?) then he explained that he was talking about the president of the usa (in case you thought he meant ahmadinejad). apparently the podium still smelt of sulphur and, thus, he could not control himself. he had to speak.

well that chavez he has a problem cos he seems to think that george bush acts like he's the president of the world. pfft! where would he get that dumb idea from?
