In praise of Blogging the Revolution “Caracas Chronicles has been an indispensable source of lucidity and perspective in these turbulent times in Venezuela. Toro and Nagel have been right on target, without pretending to be ludicrously impartial; they have been able to rise above polarization, trying hard to make sense of an often implausible reality. Blogging the Revolution shows them at their best. If you are not already a fan, you will become one.”
- Francisco J. Monaldi, RFK Visiting Professor at Harvard Kennedy School and Director, Center on Energy at IESA in Caracas.

That’s what awesome is all about. Good for him.
A unique experience he won’t be able to repeat in Caracas Metro, unless he has either a strong security detail or want to lose the medal on purpose.
On the London underground? Imagine doing that on the Caracas Metro! Good on him – fantastic!
A meaningfull depiction of “the people’s gold”. Good for him: And, thinking on, a fresh take on Olympic “training”.
Gustavo and plob500…I had the same reaction…I am very happy for him, but I wish he could do it in the Metro.
Jajaja, “Don’t try this at home kid”!
Sometimes things just work out in spite of every damn thing.
You go kid.
