Ach veh, if I get one more piece of spam promising to protect me from spam—

Well, nothing will happen. I am inactive.

The Prensa Libre is giving updates on yesterday's elections in Guatemala. Three people died in a crush at the polls, elsewhere some tables were set on fire, a parliamentary candidate was shot outside his house—but the sort of massive riots everyone feared have not yet materialized. Still, I won't be convinced until I hear Ríos Montt give a concession speech. When he went to the polls yesterday evening, everyone yelled at him to wait his turn in line, which is pretty awesome.

And on bad days, I wonder how long our country will remain exempt from such collapses. If I don't get into grad school, maybe I can just be a subsistence farmer.
