    Is anyone in tune with what is going on over the next few days to celebrate the country's 200 year birthday? I would like to take in some of the festivities and feel like I experienced something from this important event. But I feel a little out of the loop and thought you all might have some...

    What book are you currently reading?

    I just finished "The Big Short" by Michael Lewis. I'm so mad yet intrigued by the US economy meltdown in 2008 that I channel my anger by trying to understand how it happened. I loved that book. I just started Freakonomics. I'm not so thrilled with it. It goes a little too far explaining its...

    Going Back to the States

    Considering your friend doesn't have the overhead that the airlines have I'd say that's a pretty steep price for miles. My company just booked a round-trip flight from BA to Newark and back for $1100.

    How to talk to Argentines

    So can I safely assume that since those countries are first world that you believe Argentina is a 3rd world country? If so I believe I've found your problem. It's natural to have your own opinions and assumptions but it is a bad practice to think that whatever is in the forefront of your...

    Blonde small girl in Buenos Aires. How dangerous will it be for me??

    Well, when little Joanna gets here we'll all have to go out to dinner where we can verify that she isn't a troll. But she won't mind. All we'll have to do is lift up her dress, take a little peek, and she'll feel right at home.

    Blonde small girl in Buenos Aires. How dangerous will it be for me??

    Apologies to all you guys falling over yourselves to help out this poor little lass. But has anyone considered this poster to be a troll? When I first saw this post, when it was still on page 1, I thought for sure somebody was going to immediately flag it as such.

    Long-termers, how do you deal with being homesick?

    You're not really saying you can read people's minds are you? I didn't think that was possible. Actually, one of my rules to live by is to not assume you know what someone is thinking. This new bit of information has thrown that whole theory out the window.

    To everyone who lives in Palermo...

    That's quite the deal. I didn't hear YOU saying it was disgusting. Only that Palermo was more trendy. I live in Palermo, as you know, it is very nice. But there's just as much dog sh*t and cracked up sidewalks here as there is anywhere else. BTW, you should visit the Malba museum on...

    To everyone who lives in Palermo...

    I was a tourist in San Telmo a few Sundays ago and I didn't find it disgusting. I thought it was quite appealing. But that was with the streets full of people and street vendors. Quite charming actually. Can it be so different any other time?

    xxx....and counting.

    Al, sorry to hear about this latest mugging. You were telling me about the others and I was astounded. Sorry it has happened again. Ironically, we were also talking about how convenient it is to have phone service in the Subte. Convenient for us and convenient for the muggers I suppose...
