Not so graet
Here was a nice story in the Trib over the weekend, with a nice photo to go with it. But when you take a closer look at the larger version of that image in the print edition of the paper, you get a little cause for concern. Check out the message on the whiteboard:

I am reasonably sure my penmanship was better than that in 2nd grade. My spelling has not improved much though.

Even Pablo Escobar had his supporters.
While seen as an enemy of the United States and Colombian governments, Escobar was a hero to many in Medellín (especially people from the slums); he was a natural at public relations and he worked to create goodwill among Colombia's poor.

Some of us have actually studied economic development from an international perspective, and know the game . . . and feel revulsion to see the formula repeated here.
