And it's sad that it's just a joke. It's actually one of the pieces of legislation I've been working on since getting to BA (came here to do animal rescue). The article is a comical take on an noted issue with living in BA. But the basics remain: it makes sense to pass legislation. Of course...

You mean $1050AR? Because one can buy an AR carrier unlocked iphone4 without a plan for a few hundred $US here. And a factory unlocked iphone can be found easily for $750-$850 here. The market on iphone 4's has dropped since the iphone 5 is months from coming out...and you're selling USA locked...

That's the life I live now. Clients based in US and Europe, I live in BA. It works well. PM me, I might have some ideas.

And of course, selling on ebay assuming you're in/from the US is probably the easiest option. Since they are from the US and locked for ATT, it's actually more of a hassle for people using them here since they can goto 3 different carrier stores here to buy one that would work.

Yes, and while there isn't a "for sale" forum here, you'll probably find takers. If possible, you might want to open them and get them unlocked first. It's not too much of a process but it will help in selling them since they might as well be bricks right now as they won't work here unless they...

I recently posted here about the Empanadas de Yacare, Fandu and Jabali. That same night, I also tried the Ribs de Jabali. Here's a photo: http://www.foodsherpas.com/2011/03/bbq-wild-boar-ribs-ribs-de-jabali.html All in all, they are pretty subpar at Oro & Cándido. Maybe I got a bad batch, but...

Bradly brought up a great point for anyone moving here from the US. Before moving here, I did my research on banking and got the Schwab card he mentioned and also got a CapitalOne credit card. For Schwab, no currency exchange fees, no ATM fees. For CapitalOne, no international charges either. i...

LOL, that's rich, thanks. I'm sure the efforts by the millions around the world to try to remedy problems is all a conspiracy, maaaaaaannnnn. Like the Red Cross. Or the countless people who fight to get free or discounted medicines for the dying continent of Africa, where in many cases, the...

It's all part of the reality of what "humanity" is. "Humanity" is just about f'ing over others. It's a sad reality, for sure, but like virtually every other area in human society, it's about taking advantage of fellow man.

I see Baileys everywhere. Where do you live? I've seen it at virtually every supermercado in Palermo and Recoleta, both small stores and the chains.

I hear ya. Pretty much every barrio too you'll find all the specialty shops you need within a few blocks.

I did give it a try a few weeks ago. Ordered the onion rings and BBQ ribs. I was expecting low quality since it's a culinary style not native to the city: north american BBQ, and virtually every place promoting the style in BA has been subpar (Kansas being the best exception...pretty sold baby...

That is true, but only depending on the quality/brand of the canned pumpkin you are using. I for one have never bought a brand that wasn't pumpkin. In fact, the more popular and reputable brands only use pumpkin. Squash is an alternative though, as others have suggested. But be warned, it's not...

I've seen that happen, but I chose to pass on it. There are plenty of other agencies to work with that permit you to pay month-to-month. I stayed at one place for 6 months and just recently left. When I was shopping around, I found plenty of good options. But I was surprised at one company that...

I think Phillip meant stores to buy jabali meat, as opposed to other restaurants. Wish I did Phil, I keep my eyes out but rarely see it. Carrefour has some jabali items, but just fiambres.

For anyone looking for some different meat options in BA, you'll find them at Oro & Cándido. In addition to some regular meat dishes with yacaré, ñandú y jabali, you'll also find their empanada gourmet sampler with the three meats. Here's a photo of them I placed on...

The further humanity gets away from using biblical names, the better. Sorry, I'm not in your camp in favor of social de-evolution. And NY isn't the best example either, being that you are referring to what is probably 0.01% of the population of the DMA.

I was hoping someone had gone there. I walk past it every day and have had hesitations, as I'm a big BBQ fan. My hesitation stems from the fact that i never smell any BBQ smoke when I'm near the place...right be the door, around the corners, etc. So my question is...do they even smoke and slow...

It's funny how much I loved dulce de leche. I loved it when I visited BA all the times in the past. And in the US, I'd go out of my way to find specialty stores that sold the best dulce de leche. And then after a month in BA, I was sick of it as it is on everything, like you said. I'd imagine...

Let em guess...the vet you saw here also sells food. Vets usually get into the business because they care about animals. But it's still a business and the subsidies from selling food at their offices are a huge financial boost for them. I'm not going to pull any punches: the quality of some of...
