    Internet Disfunctional Now

    Another comment, During this time I received about 14 emails addressed to News With Views complaining about all the emails they were getting. My email address was nowhere on the emails, and yet they were landing in my inbox (Yahoo!). I don't know what that was about. I sent one to News With...

    Industria Argentina , Is There Anything That Doesnt Break?

    Absolutely wonderful discussion. Ries, I especially appreciated your comparison of appliances in Argentina and in NYC. I've been away from the US so long the update was good. But Ries' isn't the only one I really liked. Just that those specially interested me. Also lots of people I know own...

    Strange Request From A Potential Employeer In Uruguay

    Artigas, great post and information. But if they will check on whether he is there, and he isn't ready to leave his job, how could he comply with that? But it would not surprise me. My son applied there and everything went really well. He was told his representative could pick up his permanent...

    About the traffic shaping thing, although I don't understand it AT ALL it is odd I can come here just fine, doesn't even hesitate, and go to Facebook just fine and I went to the site with the router with no problem. B ut it absolutely will NOT access others.

    Internet Disfunctional Now

    Well y'all are TOTALLY brilliant. I am so impressed. I really don't know how to do the Google stuff you described but I did download TOR a week or so ago but had not used it so when you mentioned it I decided to try it. It gets me in EVERYWHERE. I am lost as far as understanding how it does...

    Just for fun I'm going to mention I can get this page but not Page 2. I was reading it and it suddenly said Server cannot be found. But yet I can get to Page 1 (which is this one). I'll see if it posts. I have no idea why I can get here, but not to page 2.

    Bricky, I think if I used the VPN solution you described I would have to have both Fibertel and another company, right? I don't have that but I plan to leave this weekend anyway. I don't know how many will remember I was burglarized about four months ago, then told no gas for three months (but...

    Strange Request From A Potential Employeer In Uruguay

    SLeslie23, I hate to say anything really bad about Uruguay because it's a nice country but as far as I'm concerned the immigration process could challenge your sanity. I know there's plenty of hype about how easy it is but I say . . . . NOT! Well, if you're a retiree with none of the challenges...

    Thanks, Bricky, Duly noted for later reference. Right now I'm going to Chile as soon as I can. I mean by this weekend, and staying gone for 3 months. If I still don't have gas, probably I'll be leaving. Enough if enough. Gringoboy, your Fibertel customer sounds about like me. I can come here...

    Iznogud, I'm connected directly to the modem on my desktop. The netbook operates on Wi-Fi. Both are the same. Fibertel has been great ever since I got rid of Antel and got Fibertel. But not now! And Ghost I love your humor. I guess that IS the part I missed. You get citizenship, your gas in...

    For whomever was complaining a few days or more ago about Fibertel being so slow--I can't find the thread so don't know where it was but this morning I am completely unable to work. It has been slowing down every day but this morning it's nearly nonfunctional. I thought maybe I had a virus...

    Migraine Medicine In Ba?

    Lucha 54, I am SO SORRY. I had a dear aunt who suffered with migraines so I saw it up close and I know they're bad. But there is a cure. I do mean cure so you'd never have to have a migraine again. Look up Dr. Max Gerson--now administered by his daughter Charlotte Gerson. Dr. Gerson couldn't...

    Why I Gave Up My American Passport (Fatca)

    Bajo, the point is not how they dress. the point I made is I don't know if the same situation exists in Argentina since I don't see people here dressed the same and there is no other way to identify them except how they dress. So it's a pretty important point. I'm surprised that's so hard to...

    Industria Argentina , Is There Anything That Doesnt Break?

    Well while we're on the subject, I need to buy some clothes. Especially right now I'd like some jeans. I met a man lately who assured me that you CAN get good clothes in Argentina. I haven't found them but I haven't shopped much. I don't like the quality of what I bought already--which has not...

    Industria Argentina , Is There Anything That Doesnt Break?

    This info is SO INTERESTING. I've had several people who have been in business in Argentina warn me with alarm not to consider going into business here, that the government will destroy you and then they tell their horror story. (This is one reason I am so interested if we ever have economics...

    Obamacare: Do Expats Need To Buy Health Insurance?

    Steve Palermo, you must have a compelling interest in Hitler that my statement about fluoride made you so angry. Actually I've read that about the Nazis so many times, I didn't suspect it was an issue with anyone. I don't have time to go and do the research for you, but I told you I would...
