    Argentine mp3 sources

    Okay, so I guess I could have anticipated this, but the licensing for many of the sites where I purchase mp3 is not extended to Argentina. I don't even mean like Limewire type sites (which is cerrado btw), but just straight purchase sites as well like Rhapsody. I have heard that iTunes...

    re: the illustration. http://disco.mailtrackpro.com/ This is perfect except the embarazadas would all be at the front of the line.

    Bringing my dog to UK without quarantine

    I originally misread this post and thought you were coming from the UK and solicited this reply from someone that recently brought a dog: "argentina has no quarantine for dogs from the usa, if you provide the necessary paperwork. the dog needs to have been given a rabies shot within the year of...

    I have a friend there who is a single woman from a not so big city and she doesn't strike me as combat ready and she loves it.

    supermarket lines

    I agree with this as I have had many similar experiences here in general and in hardware stores in particular. Even as I am fumbling through my list with all my cheat sheets the people in line behind me are not saying, "come on lady, WTF already," and cutting (like in Italy) or cursing (like...

    So if you had a chance to bring 5 things with you to BA

    I just bought peanut butter at the sirio. 18 pesos. Also, they have everything here that you need. If you're backpacking and plan to live on your charm, then yes, you should probably bring everything you can carry. But if you have two nickels to rub together, you can take all the money...

    Stupid question about english grammar

    The sentence is awkward either way, it's passive, and I believe the word "multitude" refers primarily to people. As a rule of thumb, I feel, if there is a more concise way to say something, use it. If it draws debate, there's more than likely a better way to say it. Many opportunities present...

    It's my first day

    I don't know how much you can truly get from the website. That guy is pretty savvy and I think you can't really access much info without actually purchasing the book. For people that work in offices that are not entrepreneurs the book offers a lot of information on why you should get out of...

    Where to buy plates and silverware?

    Geo Bazar is in the downstairs of the BA Design Building and they have tons of stuff. Also, I'm not 100% sure what block, so if you're up for a little stroll, on the south side of Santa Fe between Pueyrredón (Staples) and Billinghurst (OSDE) there's a place called Mod Design (or something like...

    Pickup Basketball in Palermo - Thursdays, 7PM

    I would love to get into any open play, but I've only been in the city for 2 weeks so I may not be qualified to start anything just yet. I don't even know where there's a court. I'd be willing to do what I could, but I think it might amount to posting something here. Are there courts to...

    Second hand baby stuff in Buenos Aires?

    I got a reasonable stroller at the baby store at the entrance of the jumbo near the mosque. It's near the main entrance. I asked for the cheapest and ended up buying the third cheapest at 340 pesos. Not great, but not expensive for what it is. There are tons of baby stores, but I've been...

    It's my first day

    Thanks everyone. Fifs2, it's so true. It's amazing how much attention he gets on the street. I understand it from women a bit more, but even the men are enamored. It's lovely. It's a real departure from NYC for sure.

    New in BAires with baby

    My family just moved here 10 days or so ago and I have a 11 month old that is in dire need of someone other than me to play with or maybe it is me that is in dire need of someone other than me to play with. Nevertheless, I would be delighted to meet up with some moms and babies for an afternoon...
