                I hired Juan, above, to
                drive me to the cosatal resort town of Vina del
                Mar on the day after my TV show performance.
                Since it iwas still winter, the town was pretty
                much empty and we had the place to ourselves.
                Juan had time to tell me the story of his life...
                he is recently divorced and had many tales of woe
                to relate. Juan was terrific. He knows everythign
                about Santiago and how to get things done
                quickly. |

                        | When I was in Santiago
                        twelve years ago, there were military
                        police everywhere with machine guns in
                        hand. The only soldiers I saw on this
                        trip were Parliament guards who looked
                        like toy soldiers. |
