    No More Airline Tickets With 'blue

    I was told, last week, by an Argentine, that only Argentines can buy international airline tickets with Arg Pesos. All others must use U.S. bucks or credit cards from U.S. banks. I bought tickets, last October from a foreign airline with Pesos. (I'm in ZA, now). Is what I was told correct?

    Study: Countries With Best/worst Eating Habits In The World

    I'm surprised that nothing was said about the time of day that the residents eat. Most "people in the know" (I hate the word "experts") say that one shouldn't eat for several hours before bedtime. Also, a large breakfast, medium lunch and small dinner are recommended. Maybe, this advise doesn't...

    Bagels!!

    IMO Sugar and Spice bagels are excellent. I believe that they sell them at the U.S. Embassy employee's cafe. Their address is Guatemala 5419 off Juan B. Justo. Call them before you go, as supplies are limited; 4777-5423. S & S wasn't making them during the holidays, so the bagels at Casa China...

    A caldera is, I guess, a fancy hot water heater. As was said, it creates radiant heat and also, hot water.

    A Moral Dilemma. What Would You Do In My Situation?

    If I were you, not having paid security deposit,I'd get out and move as fast as I could. What has been said is fine and makes a lot of sense. However, I don't think that the word "LOGIC" is in the Buenos Aires dictionary. Don't be the good guy. Your landlord will say that everything was perfect...
