So everyone, along with the Household items and things contained in our super Sudden Moving Sale....I almost completely forgot the most coveted item we own that will definitely sell fast... Perhaps we will have a Dutch Auction for it? (once I google what a dutch auction is) So I am...

Well as they say: Life happens. Accordingly, my family and I are moving back to the States this Sunday and have various items up for sale as it were. Among the items are the following: -An Epson Stylus TX125 printer that we bought here. (paid $600 pesos) It is about 3 months old and hardly...

Oh my God!!! That poor woman that has to do the sign language translation for Queen Kristina must be crippled with arthritis by now.... I mean there should be like 3 or 4 people that come in and relieve this poor woman. Get her a glass of water or something... Holy crap....wordy wordy wordy!!!!!

Hey there, I have an iPhone app game that I am developing and I am looking for someone who can program/animate it. I already have someone working on and almost finished with the design/screenshots/artwork. We need someone that can make the game "work" so to speak. I am not super fluent in all...

A friend asked me to find out the feasibility of shipping back to the States from here. Probably, in the 1/2 container to Full container kind of volume. I think it is likely furniture and things for re-sell back in the States. (I know not a novel idea, but not mine). So, a general...

I don't want this to be too political or "ranting" of a thread but I really have some questions about the Medical Care system here and perhaps some of you have some answers, thoughts and so forth. So, my experience with the medical system here has been amazingly excellent. Granted it has only...

I have to receive some urgent documents overnight from the States. They want to send them Fed Ex. Does anyone have any experience with using Fed Ex here? Will they arrive overnight? Then what about sending them back? Please let me know it is super urgent. Thank you.

C'mon people, sure we are 4500 miles away, I can barely detect the faint aroma of buffalo wings, and there is no blue cheese dipping sauce to be found (except maybe a Jumbo). But not a single post about Super Sunday?!!! Is it going to be "Grande Ben's" 3rd anillo? I am sure most Argentines...

So not sure what i need, but I have this "numb/tingly" feeling in my left hand pinky and ring finger. I think it is probably from excessive "keyboarding" (yes that phrase is trademarked/patent pending), but not sure. Maybe its carpal tunnel or any one of those repetitive injury things. so I...

...if you are not getting your empanadas from Pizza Chopi!!! Holy Crap!!, they are amazing and I have been eating my body weight in empanadas for 5 months now. An Argentine friend turned my wife on to this place and I just had them. Wow!! Not traditional shape (like little pastry volcanoes...

I have looked around, but has anyone found hot dog relish (perhaps known as "relish de los panchos") Hoping to find "sweet relish" or "india relish", (frankly, not sure of the difference) thanks.

I was hoping there was an iPhone expert that could help me answer some "tech" questions having to do with "jailbreak" and "unlock". I have an older 3g phone (not the oldest models of iphone, but older). Anyway, I had mistakenly "upgraded" to iOS 4.0.2 before finally jailbreaking and...

I need to have T-shirts made for a project and was wondering several things: 1. Does anyone know or use a good screen printer here in BA (preferably in Palermo area)? Does not have to be the most talented and the project manager is super "price conscious" (read "cheap"). Reliability is more...

Hi all, my wife and I usually donate toys to charity for Christmas as opposed to buying our relatives gifts they really don't need. (We make the donations in their names). Back home they had the U.S. Marine Corps "toys for tots" and it was pretty easy, just drop them off at a local "collection...

I have been using Claro recharge cards for a few months and I am still perplexed. Each time I out a new card on it sends me a text saying (i think) you have say: se acreditaran $30 recibiras de regalo promocional $30. But it seems when I use my minutes it only seems to use the first 30. Today...

Anyone have a suggestion(s) for a good Pescaderia/Fish Mongerer? It would be great if it is near my home (Plaza Serano area), but I am willing to travel. A place that also has a nice selection of shellfish, shrimp etc, would be great too. I have not explored the home cooking fish options as...

So we recently received our first OSDE bill and was wondering how or what is the best way to pay the bill? A friend said you can pay it right in the bank so you do not have to have a "mobster wad" of cash on you as you exit the building? Is that true do you need a local bank account? Can...

An Argentine friends grandfather passed away on Monday and they had the funeral very quickly on Tuesday. I was thinking of at least getting a "mass card", but not sure if this is done here? If so, can you just go to any church (I was thinking of the church at Recoleta cemetery as that is where...
