Still nothing



Still nothing on that morning pick-me-up that AZ saw the other day.

We'll keep scanning the police log - they've gotta update it someday.


And speaking of Nakedity, Neddie Jingo recounts here ("From the Repressed-Memory Files") how he came to be the archetype for a Chilean folk-tale.

We'll start youse off with this:


It's possible you are not familiar with the huaso. That's quite all right; very few people outside of Chile are. The huaso is to the Chilean imagination the direct equivalent of the gaucho in Argentina, and, indeed, the American cowboy. He is a tough son-of-a-bitch, a great horseman, a terrific dancer, and a cherished national symbol.

(And thanks to bossy for the bolds).
