Truth or fiction? I'm slightly skeptical, but then it does kind of make sense when you read the article. In a global market for hacking talent, Argentina stands out - Seattle Times http://www.seattleti...ina-stands-out/

Thank you all so much for the felicidades and the advice and information. I will relay this to the family and see what they can find out. I'll keep you posted. And again thanks!!!!! You all are the best. There may be a lot of debating and bickering and complaining on this forum sometimes, but...

Hi all, I have a question, maybe somebody may be able to help. I am away on business in the states, and yesterday my Argentine wife went and delivered our son, Ethan, almost 2 months early! She and he are both doing fine so far, though he is quite small, 1.4Kg. Hopefully he will be fine and...

I seem to recall you offering that example once before on this forum, and I don't recall if I commented at the time. A public official asking for a bribe is pretty extreme risky behavior. It implies that they believe they are in a protected environment where they can operate with impunity. They...

I was waiting with my wife one time at the gynecologist office here. Imagine us trying to keep a straight face when the doctor came out loudly calling the name of the next patient "CONCHA??". I couldn't help asking my wife wouldn't it be funny if all the women in the room just got up and...

Funny - you could say I've discovered it's more true and more false. It's true that you can have it, and false in that it may easily be empty and unfulfilling in the end.

Hey, nice to know Nikad. Thanks for posting, I hadn't heard about it. High time they binned that antiquated law! This will put a new spark in my wife's game of "When we start having kids, what do you think of ____, ____ for a boy or ___,___ for a girl?"

A Positive Post??? Blasphemy!! Nikad how *could* you???? At least you did put a warning message. Hope the others can be so forgiving.

Yeah, while you were busy smothering your cat, Camberiu was choking his chicken. At least his wasn't a snuff film!!!

I'm curious about work culture here. For programming, web developer type positions - are there any general things you would say are different between say here and the US? Does it tend to be a relaxed 9-5 environment, or more overloaded with high performance expectations, unpaid overtime, etc?

At first I thought this thread had been inappropriately hijacked, but now I'm beginning to see how maybe it actually stayed on topic... intrigue, danger, possible murder, trapped by the haunting memory of pussy that shouldn't have been there, meeting your fate at the wrong place and the wrong...

Man, 36 years is a long time to be here. You must really have some stories to tell! Could make another interesting thread if it hasn't already been done- Which non-native forum member has lived here the longest??

I wanted to put this in "How you Imagine Forum Members" - but alas the thread is locked. Good times, good times... Ejcot and Serafina drop by Rodolfo Walsh's house and attempt to help him guide that pesky cat from the garden through the house.

Baexpats is like the Seinfeld of forums - fleshing out every thread-about-nothing into a complete show without missing a beat.

I was thinking this morning that this would be the perfect video game. It could be called KatKarma. In your inventory you have: a ladder, hose, electric cable, gloves, blanket, bug spray, a hanger, a dog, a phone, computer with access to baexpats forum. The object is how to get the cat out of...
