    After talking to dozens of tango tourists from North America and Europe - informal interviews conducted over the 12 months I've had the pleasure of living in this fine city - I have come to the realization that the tango industry in Buenos Aires is an important, effective and highly beneficial...

    I should be getting my new passport later this week. The now-expired old one will be returned with the new one. Does anyone know whether I need to check in with Argentine immigration for a new tourist visa stamp in the new passport? Can I just wait until next time I leave and re-enter the...

    I admit it: I watch CrónicaTV

    I was in denial for months. At first I actively despised CrónicaTV. I hated the "if it bleeds, it leads" mentality. I loathed the shallow interviews and the cheap political hits.

    Argentina v Nigeria

    So Coach Maradona dressed for the game like he's been doing drug deals in Puerto Madero between thunder dumps on his million-peso custom toilet. Classy! When la Selección Nacional scored it sounded like a human bomb had exploded in the streets below my apartment. Or maybe it was a real bomb...
