Hi Everyone, I am hoping someone has had a similar experience and can advise on a personal matter. My Argentine fiance has completed all the documentation to submit to the U.S. Embassy for his K-1 visa except for one item. They are requesting a report from the court stating that there are no...

Hi, Pericles I bought an Asus Model X83V at Best Buy and I love it!!! It has Windows Vista and will allow you to upgrade for free to the next operating system Microsoft comes out with (I think this Fall). Intel Centrino, Core Duo, Graphics by Nvidia, etc, etc. (you can get all the details on...

There is a great website I use for ordering presents/gifts for friends in Buenos Aires. It's called www.tuparada.com. They always deliver on-time and have a wide variety of gifts.

There is a brand new DVD rental store on Oro (entre Juncal y Santa Fe). I haven't been in there yet but it looks very nice.

Hi, my fiance, in BsAs would like to start English classes as soon as possible. He has a very good comprehension of the language but struggles to speak and needs more work with verb conjugation; gammar too. Please send me a private message and let me know how long you have been teaching and to...

Maybe Cabrera's long post is actually part of the Communist Manifesto...:)

Contact CaptDave on this site. The last time I spoke to him, he said he had some storage space.

I said my good-bye to Michael Jackson a long, long time ago but I did get nostalgic today listening to some of his old songs. The mind goes back to a particular moment in the past when you were with someone or doing something and listening to that song.

Reminds me of the famous French proclamation: "LET THEM EAT CAKE!!" The Boskin/Greenspan argument was that when steak got too expensive, the consumer would substitute hamburger for the steak, and that the inflation measure should reflect the costs tied to buying hamburger versus steak, instead...

The Washington Post article goes on ad infinitum about his virtues before this scandal. I love the part where it says that he rejected "Federal stimulus." Guess he found another kind of stimulus somewhere else. jajaja

So, if you have dollars, what do you buy instead? gold ? (horribly speculative) Euros ? (they are in worse shape than the USA) I am back in California now and I have apartments that I rent in the Bay Area. This is the first time since the mid-1980s when it is taking approx. 6 months to rent an...

Not a fan of Argentine chocolates/sweets. Get some See's chocolates from the USA or make some peanut butter cups, rocky road cups, etc. and NOW we're talking!!!

Hello Joe, As many of the people on this site have advised, before moving, come and stay for 3 months and see how you like it. If you like it, renew your visa and stay for another 3 months. This will help you a lot in making your decision and at the same time still keep some options open in the...

As Grazie said, there are loads of dried beans around. Wash them well and discard any stones that may be in with them. Soak in a pot of water overnight and they will reconstitute. Disco and Carrefour have some Mexican promo areas where you can get canned black beans. I have seen canned kidney...
