    BA Design/Hard Rock Cafe Closing Saturday?

    I had no idea until reading this just now that I felt emotional over BA’s Design Center. I do. In memory of it, I am replacing today a transparent acrylic, oval, nail brush with clear champagne-sized bubbles embedded throughout it with a brand new duplicate. I bought a few of these each year I...

    IMF halts 3 billion bailout tranche from Argentina

    Wow, did you make a fast and erred conclusion by assuming that the dancers who are holding onto 12 pesos must be privileged people who dance across the US and smear Arg by finding it too expensive now.

They were holding onto every...

    When I was about to take a taxi home after Dr. Pelcman's first 8 surgeries that he performed on my first day with him, he gave me his home 'phone number and said, "If you have ANY problem at all, 'phone me at any time of the night.

    Dental Implants

    Sam3G, If you can, I suggest you show Dr. Pelcman your mouth. Having to wait 3 or 6 months for an implant surgery to heal before the crown can be made and placed on your implant is normal everywhere. Yes, this needs a second trip to BA or to whomever did the implant surgery when it's time to...

    Inflation ???

    Those 4 little pots of 'Activa' (25 gram ones) cost 55 pesos at supemarkets like 'Disco' in France. Crazy to me that so many things have been costing more in Arg than here for almost 2 years now!

    Which flights and destinations within Arg still cost less for Arg residents than they do for non-Arg residents or citizens? What is the reason for continuing 2-tier pricing for just some internal flights?

    Steve, I’m sorry you lost your brother and admire you for looking out for his son. It’s interesting to see how you developed your life in Arg. I regard you as this forum’s anchor. Are you considering staying in Argentina or SA, or perhaps starting over on another continent?

    Immigration Lawyers
