Traga tu Paralluvia



Buenas amigos - Good evening, or for those of you on the west side good afternoon. Just a quick line here about two things.

1. If you mix garlic and onions together to cook anything it will always be good.

2. If you build it, they will come. As I said earlier, Haciendo Buenos Aires (The Bright, Smiling black and yellow face for government funded public work projects) built two awesome, giant pantellas (Screens; defines your cell phone screen or a 40 x 40 ft screen showing Messi messin people up) in two parks around the city. First Argentine game was last saturday, even with the passionate love for the beautiful game burning in the hearts of every argentine, the 10 Celsius weather and consistently damp rain really put a damper on watching the game outside on the screen in Plaza San Martin. Not to mention the dual ability for umbrellas to block falling water and anything resembling a good view of the screen. Long story short we watched the first half then went to a friends apartment to watch the U.S. game. Chris and Paola, a geo-physicist Texan and a very successful Argentine restauranteur, hosted us for the game and we feasted like medieval royalty. Here are some pics of the screens and a nice blending of Argen and American culture.
