Nevermind - someone has beat you to it.

Looking for $100 for 4500 pesos. Has to happen in the next 6 hours and near Austria y Pacheco de Melo. Don't have time or patience to bargain. I've got all 100s, looking for nothing smaller than 10$ US bills. Thanks (and sorry if I am violating any posting rules here), Bob

I've been buying and really enjoying chauchau. But now the season seems to be over. I've seen something similar but a bit fatter but also flatter. Maybe these things...

I have a Pixel2 and Google Fi and I am convinced that I can have two numbers. Does anyone do this? Experience? In the past when visiting here I used a Nexus 5 and just exchanged my US sim chip for my Personal chip. Of course that has obvious disadvantages but saved me a lot of money. This...

Thank you so much Jeff. That line on my phone is not even so hard to find. I just had to understand that the phone could not perfectly emulate the TV remote which I use at home. Thanks again!! Bob

There are other licensing options. One of them is $12.95 for one month.

(Since I started this thread) here's been my experience thus far. On my Pixel 2 phone all I had to do was turn on the phone's VPN and, bingo, I was able to access Netflix (but not Amazon Prime). I then cast to a ChromeCast I brought along and that experience has been pretty good. My only...

Thanks Nancy. I like that suggestion. A bit more work than the powdered flavoring I have been using, and less healthy, but I think it would taste way better. But I think I will continue to look for ham flavoring and will let you all know if I find any. Bob

This is an interesting article - but since I subscribe to Bloomsburg Business Week I am not sure if the link will work for others. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-01-25/cocaine-payola-how-maduro-keeps-top-military-brass-in-line

Has anyone seen any kind of ham flavoring here? It's so great on steamed green beans. I don't mind killing an afternoon wandering around China Town, but if anyone knows of a sure source I'd sure be interested. Thanks, Bob

I could never support Trump. I would probably support the right kind of intervention. For example make foreign aid (most of which probably ends up in the pockets of corrupt officials and politicians) dependent on a reduction in violence. If you are a politician or official who is in a...

That seems to be an argument against leadership. Pretentious, pompous, asses most of them may be, but it seems to me that in general societies need leaders. Would you argue that the world would be a better place if the US had had the humility not to intervene in WWII? I am a great fan of...

I'd say that while only 0.1% of society makes it into history books, all people who work contribute to civilization.

I keep thinking that maybe the US (my homeland, but I did not vote for you-know-who) should do something about Central America so that people there do not have to flee violence. But then I recall what happened many years ago when we intervened there. However, while we should certainly learn...

I have been under the impression that Global Entry only helps you on the US end. Does it get you through immigration around the world? I don't recall seeing any special lines for Global Entry at EZE. Thanks, Bob

How would I find a dishtowel here which actually absorbs water? The one I bought at the local Disco and which claims to be cotton actually repels water. So I asked the landlady for one and she gave me one but it doesn't really absorb water either. What label do I need to look for and where...

I'm a yank and better educated and informed than most Americans (I DID NOT vote for Trump) and I can not keep it all straight. There's England, and the United Kingdom, and Great Britain, and the British Isles, and the Commonwealth of Nations. Scotland and Wales and Northern Ireland are...

How do you refer to the 500 and 1000 peso bills? Mil peso billete? Cinco cien peso billete? Or something else. Thanks, Bob

I can'f find any recent discussion of this subject. (Due in part to the fact that "vpn" is not a valid search word here.) Does vpn still work? Which vpn providers work or work best? Does the Google Fi vpn work? Thanks, Bob

Is it available in BsAs? If not are dried prunes available? Thanks, Bob
