Enjoying the Big City...

Apparently someone somewhere has heard from the guy. He's still in the bustling city of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I will try to make things a little more interesting WITHOUT the promised story.

Some things you might not know about Buenos Aires:
Actor Robert Duvall, poet Pablo Neruda and director Francis Ford Coppola ALL LIVED HERE! For those who have crushes on Mr. Viggo Mortenson, Jr. he ALSO lived here.

The state of Ohio (!) is apparently twinned with Buenos Aires, as well as the state of New Jersey and Miami, Florida. Go figure...

The tango (a dance few heavy-Norwegian-bloods have attempted, let alone mastered) was born in the suburbs of Buenos Aires. It wasn't considered respectable until the 20's when Paris society stamped it...now isn't that something. Who out there can picture big oaf Woodrow doing the tango? (Note: if you can, I do NOT want to hear about it.) I guess there is now a style "Finnish tango"...no comment.

So, until the great white man sends another spot...try to wipe some of these mental images out of your mind. I'm going to crank Bobby D. and crack another beer. It's Wednesday after all...

  1. and don't forget about the recent silliness of South Carolina's Governor Sanford lying to his staff and family to go have an affair with a chick in Buenos Aires... He said he was going on a hike in the appalachian mountains.

    Im from South Carolina... but I really can't blame him after seeing the women in Argentina.
