This is one of the funniest threads I have read in a long time. Reagan - Iran-Contra and invasion of Grenada - as an example of democratic process in leadership?

I've eaten at Chipper a few times. There were 2 kinds of fish - similar to cod - a chunky white meat - both good. The batter flavor was excellent. They did not have the traditional North Atlantic cod - not surprising, since North Atlantic cod fisheries off Newfoundland were destroyed by...

In about 1985 I had an account at a British brokerage in Hong Kong closed since I had become a US person for tax purposes and the brokerage did not want to start filing paperwork with USG. The purpose of the IRS reporting, as I they understood it, was to create additional business cost to...

I can highly recommend the otorrino Dr Santiago Draghi. He consults Tuesdays near Plaza Italia from about 5pm on at a Oro 2494 Piso 1, about 3 doors down from Santa Fe. Best way to get an appointment I found was to show up there at about 4:30 on a Tuesday and talk to his receptionist to see...

Thanks for the reminder about this. I called the IRS phone number for queries about international taxes last week. The wait time on that international line was about one hour. The line was solid - the call didn't drop while waiting. There was no call-center nonsense of being transferred...

See you there

count me in

i'll be there

Sorry I cannot recommend a channeler. You don't mention in your query the apostille. In case you missed reading about that in the forums, after the FBI sends out the report which has to include an FBI seal, it has to go to the State Dept to be apostilled.

I would be up for this monthly. Let's get an initial event planned.

Aphids are pale green in color and have tiny visible wings when adult. They can be controlled by spraying with water that has some dish detergent added. The detergent acts as a wetting agent so that the water completely wets the aphids, causing them to suffocate from drowning. I find...

The book The Complete Guide to Real Estate Investment in Argentina by Simon Fawkes is detailed and was accurate last time I looked at it. The process of buying an apartment in BsAs in 2009 was almost identical to the process in the US, with about the same number of weeks taken for processing...

See you there

Those coming to the start-up meeting, I will see you this Saturday at 2pm. Academia is a bit noisy, but I could hear people. We probably need to try and move chairs a bit more. For the future I also like quieter cafes. If we can find one that is easy to get to and quiet that would be great.

see you there

This will be our second informal get-together for expats to chat with each other about start-up ideas and experiences. Same time and place as last time: Saturday 2pm - 5pm La Academia, Guemes 3299 (Palermo: corner of Coronel Diaz). Please add your RSVP in a reply comment so we can get an...

I injured my back in a car accident in New Zealand many years ago. I've had treatment in Japan, S Korea, and the US. Finding someone competent who can provide helpful diagnostic and rehab advice for back problems takes time and work. What I now do is to ask for the best spine doctor around...

I met an English PT here about 4 months back. Send me a pm and I'll try to find the contact info for you. I had successful PT for a foot injury, from a local kinesiologist in Belgrano, covered under Medicus insurance. The kinesiologist required a diagnosis and prescription from my local...

rsvp'd. See you all there Saturday 2pm.

The rain and cloud, the Roman, Viking and Norman invasions, the feudal social structure, the Church - all these played a part. So yeah, stand under a shower for a few months, get painted with woad ....
