Solo Para los Records

Hi guys, long time-no see.

I went to a little place in the Castellana-Chacao area, called "El Solar del Vino". Apparently the name has nothing to do with they actually serve or they serve beers at night. I had a good time, I was having a couple of beers with several friends. I had to go to the toilet, if you can call it that, you know how it works here, piss and puke everywhere, but we're used to it. However my surprise was the amount of people in the toilet snorting coke like they were having beer.

I'm not an easily impressed person, so imagine the amount of people into that for me to get all worried or even impressed enough to write a blog article about it!
It actually got me all depressed, not because they were snorting away, but the openness about it, the lawlessness around the whole picture. If we can't as a society even get people to do illegal drugs in a concealed way, How can we expect to uphold ANY law??

Those are my two cents for the month.

Me pasó lo mismo pero en el baño de un local que queda en Sabana Grande; el Moulin rouge. Yo ignoré el episodio como si no estuvieran haciendo nada malo, preferí sentirme invisible, como si no estuviera allí. Eran como 5 personas que estaban en el mismo asunto y nadie quisiera meterse en esos "asuntos", o mirarlos mal, ya que podrían agredirte, y seguramente no medirían las consecuencias estando en ese estado.
En la entrada de una discoteca, también en Sabana Grande, un tipo que iba a entrar acompañado de su pareja, se disponía a entregar su arma en la entrada (una pistola automática) al gorila de la puerta mientras yo miraba. La descargó con toda normalidad, como si aquello fuera lo más natural del mundo, luego le entregó el arma sin las balas... sólo así pudo entrar. Can you believe it?
