Grocery stores in Chile don’t have a mayonnaise section, they have a mayonnaise aisle. A sandwich shows up looking like this, I’m asking the waiter if they can bring some more mayonnaise.

I spent a lot of time at this seminar yesterday thinking about how, one day, the U.S. had better grapple with its past and present the way many countries like Chile have done and are doing.

If you want far, the former location of the Chilean Constitutional Tribunal is sitting vacant these days, now that they’ve moved into their permanent location. I bet you could even get the office furniture thrown in.

I guess that explains how a place like this (House of the Pressure Cooker) exists.
