Viva la revolucion

As my bus passed through Beverly Hills yesterday, we passed a young jogger wearing designer shoes and a Che Guevara tee shirt. The irony was lost on the other bus riders, 30 hispanic women on their way to clean houses.

I swear to Buddha that nobody actually knows who Che Guevara is. That's why I only wear "Salvador Allende Gossens" t-shirts.

By the way, if you ever feel too comfortable with American foreign policy - and frankly, when isn't that the case? - check out "Blackwater: the rise of the world's most powerful mercenary army." I get the warm fuzzies when I know that we are still supporting friendly dictators all over the world.

I saw a Che tee shirt once that said "I gave my life spreading Communism in Latin America and all I got was this lousy tee shirt."
