I inadvertently go for a little dip in the river when sailing near Puerto Madero and the laser gets flipped; followed by a good long hot shower to wash off all the supposed 'crap'. It's been pointed out to me on numerous occasions that raw sewage is let into the river although I cannot confirm...

I don't recall anyone pointing a gun to my head saying "YOU READ CLARIN OR YOU DIE"; and for all the Argentine friends and family who voted for Macri...regular people living in Villa del Parque, Flores, Parque Patricios. They read critically and judge for themselves. They voted against the Kult...

Exactly it ceviche! Having been here for well over a decade, I get to miss hearing people speaking without a latino accent and having to explain jokes. I don't get out much because of work and family but when I do it would really suck if the group is glued to a screen.

Really? Why, do you have an insane asylum near your home? -_-

Seems Macri woke up good and early and got to work without hesitation. It's been a active day according to Clarin. Took the helicopter to ruta 8 to advise the foreman that work must be completed in 3 months, met with representatives of major religions, then with the leaders of each of the...

well, this is my collection tools for checking how exciting my sailing is going to be (or not). A lot is over-kill for most people, but in case anyone has the need, here ya' go (sorry if i duplicated any from previous posts): http://www.rain-alarm.com/ http://radar.inta.gov.ar/v3/...

hmmm. So last night around 12:30, was that Christina still in the presidential helicopter at the airport? if so, then will she pay the hefty bill for that transportation? I couldn't really see, but I did note that 12 had rolled by and the news was focused on her catching her plane. ps...

wunderground good set of visualizations (temp, cloud cover, dew point, etc), can switch weather stations or have them average out the data, almanac, animated maps with specific overlays. This is my go-to prognosis site for most reliable forcasts, though weather is dynamic so I check it when...

Colorín Colorado, los 12 años se han terminado!

She's spouting again :huh: she said the words persecution a few times... WTF?!?! Always the victim. It's hurting my ears to listen to her going over her CV in public like this. And the zombie apocalypse is live there in Plaza de Mayo. I wonder how long until there's blood and destruction in...

http://www.estcafe.com.ar/menu.php?menu=sandwiches check hot pastrami; t wasn't bad... of course it wasn't a Montreal style hot-meat like Schwartz's but it it did the trick.

There's always protesting at the worst possible times; now I think there will be more and perhaps more violent as I'm sure the Kult will show their true colours and make it violent. I'm just glad to work from home so I don't have to deal with most of this on a daily basis as I did before when I...

It's not close ( well it is to me ) but worth it if you need caseloads of things... Argentina’s answer to Costco. EDIT: there's another place near Abasto : http://www.vital.com.ar/sucursal/abasto/

really... i buy it by the case: http://www.makro.com.ar/

So far I have not; the decision to block zamba came when I hear/see the context of what is being transmitted to the children. I am involved in what she is exposed to. If she wants to start watching amigos, she may... but I will be vigilant in what is being transmitted there too. So far she has...

pfff... that's funny. pakka pakka and zamba in particular is the only 'kid' show that i added to the BLOCK list for Youtube searches my daughter can do.

This is true, but I find these are over-priced because of the brand name. Milwaukee is not known, much as Skil is generally unknown here. Most people will spend [too much] on a B&D because of the perceived quality of the name-brand when a Skill makes a comparable and lower priced machine. This...

Were you using the planer in lieu of a jointer or thicknesser? Funny how many hand tools are promoted here and yet bench tools are so lacking. The market here is mostly for metal work and auto mechanics. I have no affinity for those fields so I really can't comment on the quality of those kind...

most paint stores sell those kinds of ladders. for example: http://www.pintureriasrex.com/escalera-articulada-tipo-andamio-16-escalones-1.html
