I only reported what I read in several newspapers. On the other hand, if you are trying to pick a fight, insult or whatever turns you on, you picked the wrong guy. Sorry to disappoint you.

Where did you learn math? 2+2=4.

Clarin, la Nacion, etc all had articles two days ago announcing that, as of December 15, anyone entering thru Ezeiza, from ANYWHERE, can enter CABA with NO need to quarantine. Just take a saliva test in Ezeiza.

December 15 is the date, according to press reports. No need to quarantine any longer; you just take a saliva test when arriving at Ezeiza. You can go then and carry on with your life; they'll send you results within 24 or 48 hrs. If positive, then you need to quarantine. Apparently, no need to...

You have no idea how different argentina was in social matters, 45 years ago. I was once forced off the local train for wearing shorts. The country club i belonged to, in Hurlingham, gave me a choice: cut my long hair and be allowed to enter the club, or resign. I also spent a week locked up, in...

Yo-Yo's were a wonderful toy. Once, while staying in a hotel in a far away city, a team of professional soccer players was in the same hotel, and before you knew, half the team was practicing the yo-yo. Great way to kill time and be fascinated too. No, I am no longer a master at it.

Hi all I want to share my love story. I hope you enjoy my moment of augmented ego and don't flame me too badly. Here it is: https://www.lanacion.com.ar/lifestyle/amor-otros-tiempos-intento-conquistar-su-corazon-nid2510757 To love!

Tipping? One of the problems with regular tipping is that, before you know it, it's expected regardless of the service provided. An example, in the US food industry today, it is very common to enter a request for a coffee, a sandwich, or whatever, and then the server or counter person enters the...

Bitter? No, how about a bit of law and order? How about following rules that you swore you would? How about keeping your promises? Seems pretty basic stuff to me, and you don't have to be bitter to follow them.

I suggest you, and others, take things a bit more seriously when traveling. At present, prior to entering Argentina, you must sign an affidavit (declaration jurada) whereby you commit to self quarantine for 14 days on arrival. Other cities, like new York, have a similar requirement. It seems to...

Being bored, or avoiding boredom, are two very important issues. Whereas someone may be excited about reading, yoga, sex, or whatever, avoidance of boredom is a complex issue. We have to find what turns us on and learn whether we have the motivation to pursue what turns us on. You can have...

Is an economic crash inevitable? Who knows? we all have our opinions and make our bets, or don't. Whereas I am not a fan of this government, slowly I get more and more impressed by its economic minister, Martin Guzman. For one, he does not seem to mind reversing course, if he feels results...

I am in California today and wanted to get a CRP test so I could fly somewhere. The test sites made me swear that I have a sore throat, fever, etc, or no test, and if I lied and said, yes, I have all those things, the test results would take 5-7 days. For travel purposes, the test has to be...

Thank you for the clarification. Damm COVID.

Thank you for the great clarification. I need to figure out now how to become a diplómate or similar!

When I dated Argentine young ladies, 50 years ago, and also dated California young women, my experience was that Argentine women were more repressed sexually. I am not sure if the word is repressed, or cold, or not as enthusiastic as American. But that was 50 years ago, and perhaps things have...

I've asked the same question on dating Chinese women vs. American women, and my American friends say the Chinese women care more about their parents. Chinese parents seem to expect more "respect" from their daughters.

What I find confusing, the IMF sent two representatives to Argentina about ten days ago, and neither were quarantined for 14 days. It seems that if you are powerful, you get special permits.
