    Twizzlers, licorice?

    If you need another excuse to indulge your licorice jones, there is some pretty good evidence that licorice (natural of course) has some fairly potent anti-viral properties. I won't say you won't get the swine flu if you eat licorice, but it can't hurt! :) David

    You betcha - there's still a few seats left (sort of) As of this morning I had 32 RSVP's, and I have seating and settings for about that many.

    Thanksgiving in Vicente Lopez!

    Your other options include the #29 (take the ramal that says "Olivos") or the train from Retiro. A cab would run about 35 pesos, but perhaps you can split it 2 or 3 ways? David

    Need a Movie Fix: Tonight

    My personal favorite is Showcase, on Av. Monroe and Arrebenos in Belgrano. I like it 'cause: 1) It's pretty easy to get to by bus or train (linea mitre, est. Belgrano), and they have most current movies showing. 2) It's close to "Chinatown" so a movie can be combined with a cheap chinese...

    How to get USD for rent without fees?

    Sara Do you need dollars or pesos? You will NOT be able to get U$D from ATM's (as you probably know already!) If you need dollars, you have a problem as changing the pesos into dollars will result in another set of fees! BTW, I will be changing about $1,000 U$D before next week - if you...

    Laptop parts?

    Hey there! Here's my 2 centavos, if you are interested... Laptops are expensive, delicate, hard (sometimes impossible, depending on the age and brand) to repair, and IMHO are for people who MUST have a portable computer. My suggestion is to bring the parts that are MUCH cheaper in the US...
