    Lanata Deported From Venezuela

    It's very convenient to paint the entire political system as corrupt as hell, throw Macri, CFK and Carrio into the same pot and then postulate from your pedestal, but you fail to acknowledge that there is at least a semblance of cleaning up going on here. Lilita Carrio corrupt? You'll be...

    Argentina Outdone

    The White House has become a circus act conducted by the king of chaos himself. A very sad sight indeed.

    The Herald Is Dead! Long Live The Herald!

    A few years ago this would have been considered a loss, but since Cristobal Lopez got his dirty hands on it, it became nothing more than loo paper.

    Lanata Deported From Venezuela

    Nothing anal about asking for sources. Besides, what with Lazaro Baez and some of his cronies in Ezeiza prison, CFK indicted for some very serious charges and numerous other ex functionaries either charged or being investigated, is evidence enough that these people have committed some pretty...

    Lanata Deported From Venezuela

    Still no source then? 'Widely reported' doesn't really cut it. I've read all the reports in Clarin and La Nacion, and nowhere is it reported that he didn't have a journalist visa. Mind you, they must have had him on their radar as soon as he left Eze and he would never have been granted a...

    Lanata Deported From Venezuela

    Not because he wanted to report on what is really going on in Venezuela then? To expose the dictatorial new measures that Maduro wishes to impose on the country ie ruling by decree? If that's making trouble, he has my full support.

    Chili Question

    I'd try Chinatown if I were you. On the other hand a mate of mine grows his own chillis and I'm seeing him tomorrow so I'll ask him.

    Lanata Deported From Venezuela

    No surprise there then, especially since it's his second run-in with Venezuelan authorities. In 2012 he was held for several hours and later freed, but all his recordings were allegedly wiped. On this occasion however, it must have felt like deja vu. A bit like turning up at your ex wife's gaff...

    Broadband Cards

    Like this you mean? http://www.movistar.com.ar/wifi-movil-4g http://consumer.huawei.com/en/mobile-broadband/e5377/ https://computacion.mercadolibre.com.ar/modem-4g-movistar It would only be worth it for 4G I reckon and the 4G coverage is pretty good generally.

    Searching For The Perfect Garbage Bag In Ba

    Maybe you should send your thesis on garbage bags to The Institute of Sciences and I mean that in the nicest possible way.

    Lanata Is Back !!! Funniest Thing On Tv

    As I mentioned in my post about Cristina's tapes, this was classic Lanata and well worth a watch!

    Cristina's Phone Tapes.

    When I heard that Lanata was making a return last night I groaned a little, especially since his recent makeover was a little dull. Anyway, he's back with the old format and opened with House of Grieta and then some delicious audios of Cristina chatting with Pirelli (sic) and revealing aspects...

    Is It Now Cheaper To Bring Computer Parts Into The Country?

    Our flight arrived half and hour early but we had to wait on the runway for 45 minutes to wait for a slot, whilst I pondered the new 'lottery' style customs system in Ezeiza. Luckily my fears were mainly ungrounded as, when I approached the agent with the big game show style square, red/green...

    Is It Now Cheaper To Bring Computer Parts Into The Country?

    We're flying back to BA tonight from Heathrow with a few goodies, so I'll report back with our experience, or lack of (hopefully).

    Another Question For International Travellers

    Your command of the English language is far from inspiring, so I suggest you return to pre-school. Go on, run along and don't forget to ask mummy to wipe your nose.

    What`s Up With Barrio Chino These Days?

    I'd have been waiting on their doorstep on Monday morning, smelly fish in hand. You can{t swallow that kind of loss and just write it off or it will happen again.
