A Massive Bomb - confirmed seconds ago as a terrorist suicide bomber - just went off in the last hour in the International arrival hall at the main Airport in Moscow, Russia. there's already 31 confirmed dead/125 confirmed injured. News is coming in slowly... A HORRIBLE SITUATION !!! (from the...

Wow, I have a new appreciation for this guy (Tom Cruise). Since I believe the Israeli Government and Extremists are a source for a lot of our problems (not Israeli citizens who have a live and let live attitude, liberal in other words - they're fine by me and I've meet plenty, especially in Tel...

Well, the US Supreme Court just gave your country away today (if you re a US Citizen).... it's as good as dead, your power to sway it IN ANYWAY what-so-ever is now zero. Money rules and all House and Senate members will become whores as the Giant multi national corps quickly buy them up. Expat...

WOW, CAN THIS GUY GIVE A SPEECH !!! (like The Stones used to give a performance, The Beatles used to write an amazing song, and Dylan put words together to give use beautiful lyrics and poetry). The few on here that don't see it choose to not ACCEPT it (I can imagine how tough it is when Bush...

In just a few more hours the world will finally be rid of the Negative forces of the last 8 years and be given a new chance to make so much of the wrong America has been responsible for right again (not that that much will probably change but then again we might all be surprised). The vibe in...

The NEW YORK TIMES and AP are both reporting that the ISRAELI Government begged President Bush to attack Iran's major nuclear complex at Nantanz with specialized bunker-busting bombs in early 2008. According to the Times, Bush decided against an overt attack based on input from top...

What is Barack Obama thinking inviting one of these IMHO phony charlatans (who claims to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ but seem to all mainly be obsessed with Abortion and Homosexuals) to be part of the Inauguration Program on 01/20/09 ? The news media is making it sound like this has...

As I sit here and write this the debate is 3 hours away. So this thread is for those that want to say how they think it will go, how they want it to go, or how it went. The format is to include audience questions (which is great) but they will not be able to ask follow up questions if the answer...

I'm learning about economics at super sonic speed but still have a long way to go. I am wondering what the possible effects of the economic situation in the USA can have on Argentina? What will it do to apartment prices (to buy) for expats (since I'm still very serious about doing this...

Are you Angry, Super Angry, Worried, whatever else about the BIG NEWS ? I think we all know what I'm talking about - Last Week + Wall Street + Washington D.C. + America's no charging limit Credit Card. As usual (Iraq War, New Orleans Hurricane, Near World Wide Financial Collapse) the clown in...

I need some quick advice. Lehman Brothers files for Bankruptcy and Bank of America is buying Merrill Lynch. I have a lot of money in Morgan Stanley and Fidelity. Should I pull it all out ASAP or sit this out..... Is there ANY chance Morgan Stanley is gonna follow in the foot steps of Lehman...

For those who haven't caught Gov. Sarah Palin's ABC TV interviews check YouTube. I saw them and like Bill Maher, am scared sh*tless. This woman is ready to bomb Iran ANYTIME ("you don't second guess Israel") and Russia ("We need to put Ukraine and Georgia in NATO so if Russia attacks them we can...

How many houses does McCain own? Who cares any more, I'm much more concerned with how many active brain cells he still has firing - it's looking like dangerously low, normal thought process is WAY down, if you look at his bizarre VP choice (most likely in a desperate "Blind Panic"). SARAH PALIN...

So now Obama has picked Joe Biden as his Vice President. This is probably the best, smartest move Obama could make (Hillary would have been pretty good too IMO). Joe Biden hasn't used his many many years in the Senate to become a multi millionaire like most of the scum in our Government today...

Awwww - "They're keeping us safe" (bless their hearts), The wonderful world of George Orwell is alive and well in the Grand Old United States of America. Just found out about a little known law that allows any customs agents to confiscate your Laptop, Cell Phone, PDA, Blackberry, DVD's, or any...

Just wondering in this fine "Sport" we - USA citizens - have every 4 years called "THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE" who are you rootin' for this time around. Feel free to jump in if you are from another country besides the US - it's all No Problemo to me...... So , please state your case but no...

There's a lot of bright people on here that understand this stuff in much greater detail than I do. With that said why does the US Dollar just keep dropping (especially against the Euro it seems) and what is it going to take to get it up to one = one with the Euro again (do you think that...

Was just wondering about the experiences of the long time, multi country expats on here (those that have spent substancial time in numerous countries throughout the world - be it for work, adventure, love, or just to escape your home country for whatever reason. What turned out to be your best...

I can't seem to get a definitive feel about how safe (at night) and lively (at night) San Telmo is. I used to take a taxi down there from the San Martin area little Hotel I would stay at for Tango shows but that was it (besides day time visits to the weekend flea market in the square/park). So...
