I'm not a huge fan of Helles, myself.  I actually like to taste my beer.

When I was eating and drinking in Argentina at no point did I think my portion was too small :lol: :P

(Except of chimichurri - I always had to ask for multiple refills of that  :Embarrass:)

I don't often dine out down there.  And mind you, I pretty much always get as much as I want to eat, but their "dinner" plates are so small so I have to keep going back for seconds.  And I hate having to constantly refill my 5-6 oz. glass with beer.  Next time I'm taking my own pint glasses down there.

But I will concede that on most occasions I've dined out, the portions have usually been adequate.

I need to suggestion on ideas for a gift exchange. 50$ limit. Video Games are out of the question, I don't trust the other participants to not buy me the PS3 version while I don't have a PS3.

Any ideas? I usually try to suggest something different & very specific. Just Books makes it too easy.

You guys are not being usefull at all.

Seedy is lying, but yeah I'm bored.  I dun' burned up all my remaining vaca time and am stuck in a mostly-vacant office.  Plus I'm experiencing the regular end of the year lull in projects.

I think I'll "work from home" tomorrow and/or Friday.

That's the best part;  everybody else is burning up vacation at the end of the year, and it's quiet.  That's the way I always did it, it's a two-fer win-win.

If I needed to catch up on stuff that would be a net positive.  But I keep thinking about all the things I'd be doing if I weren't stuck here.
