why you should jump ship

Most of you reading this blog from Santa Barbara already know that the NewsPress meltdown in our sleepy, little, beachside pueblito is like an intense episode of Dallas if JR Ewing was played by an inexplicably-masculine billionaire female. This stuff is seriously SOooOOOOOooOO juicy it has me salivating all over the newsprint from way down here.

Just when things seemed to be lowering to a distant simmer (can anyone say 'Lost' Season 2?!), the small town media meltdown is getting nasty again. YOU GO, Sue Ellen (played divinely by the Indy's one and only Nick Welsh)! Tell that bitch who's boss!

If you aren't paying attention... you really gotta start! Just a little tidbit from another Network TV Slut. I think fondly, during these times, of my former employer. Kareoke party at SoHo and we'll all sing, "I Will Survive"??

It's too damn hot






I know, I know. Less blogging more photos. I was prepared for the summertime Buenos Aires heat but I was prepared for it to hit in December. Little didn't I know it would hit in mid-October leaving life sweaty and opressive. In the meantime here are some photos of one of the cooler art forms of Buenos Aires - stencil art. Stencils are everywhere and range from political, to artsy, to just plain weird. They remain one of the most enjoyable reasons to trawl the streets of the BA even when it is 90 degrees and humid as hell itself.
