Much of my skiing was in Indiana, USA, where the vertical drop was less than 150 meters. I might have to break up a run so my legs don't give out.😦

I have not skied in seven years, but am considering skiing this upcoming season. Has anyone any experience skiing in Tierra del Fuego? It would spare me getting acclimated to the high elevations in the high mountain resorts, but has shorter daylight and maybe foggy conditions. I avoid steep...

The core issue that rattles around this topic is tax evasion. Since I am not a licensed accountant in ARG I cannot offer an opinion on tax implications of US financial accounts declared or clandestine. I can share that I have a Schwab International account, and trade online on occasion with...

I will attend.

Due to my bad character, I have to revisit a post from nearly a year ago. Trump seemed to lose interest in the ICE roundups and the fatal shootings that led to some blow back. So at Bibi's insistence, got the US in a war that is pushing up costs of inputs (diesel fuel, fertilizer) for US ag...

Thanks for your detailed, timely review. Much appreciated

How would you rate a Sturla cruise for visual appeal, accommodating vessel, and some tranquility on the river?

I am reluctant to admit that given my effete, woke sensibilities, I dismissed this post as much on style (or lack thereof), as on content. "If they ask you for your id, just show it and off you go!" makes little sense to me, despite my 7th grade reading comprehension level.

As others have noted, there is no substance, detail, to support the claim "the evidence is overwhelming" regarding paid protesters in Minnesota. Are thousands paid daily into their crypto wallets? Does Team Soros have geo tracking on every mercenary protester phone to verify the actual...

I erred in posting my message in the wrong category. I should have posted in "World Affairs". As is common in many web platforms, there is much opinion, unbounded by rigorous fact checking. But I'll shoulder the blame for my post that landed outside your content guardrails. Please extend...

"Lol...you left out George Floyd..." To me, the death of an individual, irrespective of their criminal record, is never a laughing matter. If my death in a geriatrica in CABA is a laughing matter to the staff, or to my family, by that time it won't matter to me.

There are many instances of white cops fatally shooting unarmed black men. The shooter justifies his action as self defense. Not every fatal shooting results in criminal charges brought against the cop, and when charges are brought, the cop is often acquitted. Two cases come to mind for me...

"He managed to work with the Church, the Military, and the Oligarchs to raise the standard of living for the working class. He cut deals with companies like Siam to build automobiles, appliances, and machinery in Argentina, rather than importing them. He created a manufacturing sector that still...

Drove a taxi in NYC in the 1980's. An old taxi driver's union official gave me this advice, " If a bad person is running away from you, don't go after them". In Cincinnati in the 2000's, a white CPD officer fatally shot a black male teen, who was attempting to evade capture at 3 AM. The teen...

I plan on attending.

I lived in Villa Luro from 2019 to 2024. The west entrance to the Villa Luro station for the Sarmiento train line is adjacent to a covered large cylindrical hole, about 3 meters in diameter, and alongside was a dirty diesel generator running a pump to remove the water that infiltrated the hole...

I forgot to write of the 3 cellphone robberies on public transit in Bs. As. I witnessed over the last 7 years in C.A.B.A.. I only take a cell phone when I move about the city when it is absolutely necessary.

I was robbed in 2019, in a dangerous neighborhood in broad daylight. There were people on the street. Three guys got to me and one held a fake pistol to my stomach. I did not know at the time the pistol was fake. They stole some things from me, but the police apprehended one of them, The...

The US has been a bad actor with Iran for my entire life. The US pushed out the popularly elected Mossadegh and installed the Shah, their corrupt and repressive stooge. Then they assisted Saddam Hussein when Iraq invaded Iran in the '80s. The US sure knows how to pick its friends. Nobody in...
