For The Coup Addicted: A Stroll Down Memory Lane.

Nothing like a good old Latin American coup to get my blood stirring.

It's been a while, too.

Some sources report the last LatAm coup in 1992. Others say it was 2002...when Hugo "the Ego" Chavez got bounced around.

Coups aplenty. That's why I think that I got hooked on Latin America in the first place.

The politics were always so interesting...and ever-changing.

I even quietly feared the coup drought...might go on.

Then along came...good old dependable...Honduras.
