I saw a funny cartoon the other day on Discover Buenos Aires, a blog dedicated to an outsider’s view of living in the Argentine capital, which I’m sharing here. It explains what $6 would get you today in comparison with less than 10 years ago…let’s get it together, Sra. Kirchner!!

2004 con $6: Hola, dame un alfajor, un paquete de pepitas y una Coca Cola mediana.

2007 con $6: Hola, dame un alfajor y una Coca Cola chica.

2010 con $6: Hola, dame un alfajor.

2013 con $6: Hola.

(Translation below…not that it’s difficult!)

2004 with $6: Hello, give me an alfajor (a type of sweet), a pack of pumpkin seeds and a medium Coca Cola.

2007 with $6: Hello, give me an alfajor and a small Coca Cola.

2010 with $6: Hello, give me an alfajor.

2013 with $6: Hello.

I wonder what his story is…

Since glasses are so in demand these days…

Logo for an outdoor crafts and plastics fair…

In honor of Trayvon Martin, who was fatally shot in Florida one year ago today, and hoodies everywhere…

I love this sign everywhere…here, courtesy of BA Metro!

Found on the side of a school building in Buenos Aires…

In honor of Valentine’s Day, I thought I’d post this lovely graphic for a heart clinic in Mendoza…
