Hugo Chavez has finally left this mortal coil.

Today being March 5 it is the 30th anniversary of

Hugo Chavez was 58, same age as Paul Bearer (the urn-carrying wrestling manager) who also died yesterday. The Grim Reaper was indeed busy because my sister-in-law's mother died yesterday as well.

You can excuse the paranoia with the number of times the US tried to topple Chavez, perhaps. Unfortunately people kept returning him to power in free elections. Democracy can be inconvenient like that.

RIP Maggie. Thought I'd be dancing about it - but I'm not. It, as it happens, is sad when anyone dies.
