Looking to make new friends? Trying to find something interesting to do tonight? Stop by SAE, 577 Estados Unidos, in San Telmo to hear live Folklorica music, drink some wine and/or beer, and enjoy some tasty empanadas. Do you play a guitar, flute, or sing? You are welcome to join in after...

Sounds great!

First you need to learn that 300 is plural so instead of 300 peso, it should read 300 pesos. Same with the number 500. It's plural. Perhaps that explains why everyone is short of money. Simple math.

Argentines and 90% of the rest of the world as well. If people didn't think they had a money shortage, why would so many continue to slave away day after day in a job they don't like and/or a place they don't want to be?But that still doesn't answer the question... Where are all the coins?It's...

News to me!

Buen Dia Auntie,A night watch party does sound like a good idea! Count me in. I also live in the Provencia de Buenos Aires (Ing. Maschwitz) and frequent the Delta (Tigre) where we have a summer (or really anytime) house. Perhaps I should watch the sky more often.The few times I have looked up...

Thanks for the replies but still no answer. Does anyone really know what is going on? Perhaps all the change is being hoarded by the common person in an attempt to not have the problem I am facing. Or perhaps there is something much more sinister going on. Like maybe coins cost more to...

For those who don't know... The Trielium in Tigre is a casino.

Where have all the coins gone? Today I approached the MONSA 'ticket' office in Ing. Maschwitz to change a 10 peso note in order to ride the bus. They did not have change! When I inquired how I was supposed to ride the bus if they don't have coins, they referred me to a bank. At the bank...

Change banks! Chase is raking you over the coals...

Personally, I think they were first identified as Illuminati and then integrated with the Masons. You just need to wear special glasses, the kind that remove institutional programming, to see them. The current President of the USA, for example.

Remember when we were children? Remember the schoolyard and classroom arguments we would have with our classmates? While reading some of the comments and replies (including mine) in several of these forums, I was reminded of similar conversations between kindergarten and elementary school...

Appears nobody is interested in an On-Line Book Club. I thought with such a large expat society in Buenos Aires, many of whom spend lots of time in front of the computer, there would at least be 5 takers. Oh well, in the words of George Thorogood; "I Read Alone!"

JG.... You stay because of your kids? Are your children prisoners here? If you really despise this place, you could transplant them to a society in which you approve. Or perhaps the 'mean people', 'dirty and polluted city and towns' in this place you call a 'cesspool' provide the kind of...

I like Dada which is located on San Martin, between Paraguay and M.T.de Alvear. Gibralter is also also nice place, located on Peru, between Estados Unidos and Independencia. Finally, check out this link:

Better late than never.... I just returned from a trip to Colonia. What I noticed, immediately, was that it was quieter, cleaner, and slower paced. Step on the street and cars stop to allow you to cross.My girlfriend is Portenio. Her parents are Portenio. And both say that if they had to...

Summary findings: http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/cvictgen.htm In 2005, U.S. residents age 12 or older experienced approximately 23 million crimes, according to findings from the National Crime Victimization Survey. -- 77% (18.0 million) were property crimes...

Apples and Oranges. The question was why we have so much violent crime in the USA not why there is so much petty theft in Argentina. Unlike the USA, family is an integrated part of the social fabric here. The petty theft is a way to make a living for those who are living in poverty. As the...

The people are nice. Each province is distinct and full of adventure. The exchange rate is favorable. My girlfriends has a career here. I am retired and living on a fixed income. and the number one reason I live here.... I love the BBQs!
