And now with EVEN MORE colour
I suspect that I have no small number of posts that could be filed under the category "Only in Brazil." My energy bill arrived this afternoon with a spiffy new look with an explanatory note attached to explain the changes. In essence, the note went something like this:
YOUR ENERGY BILL
IS NOW MORE COLOURFUL,
SIMPLE AND EASY TO READ.

Like I said, only in Brazil! Makes my life in beige fairly bleak indeed.

It's nice they are brightening up your life for you..
Hope you have a very Merry Christmas..
I heard there was a riot at the airport, people trying to get to Receife (sp?) weren't allowed on a plane so they blocked it on the tarmac! Were you one of them?
Happy New Year..
Happy: Thanks! You too.
Michael: OH MY! No, I wasn't there, thankfully. The situation with air travel in Brazil right now is utter chaos as the air traffic controllers have reduced their load to that which is legally permitted (sounds like a good plan). Following the crash of a commercial jet in Sept 2006, it came to light that the controllers were controlling way too many flights per controller. As a result they reduced their workload (rightly so, IMHO) and the result has been UTTER CHAOS for the last three months. I almost didn't even make my flight home to Canada last month. I'll be back in Recife in less than two weeks - hopefully the people will be calmer.... Once again, stay tuned for more!
