Happy Thanksgiving

Since I know most of my readers are in the United States, The Drama 2.0 Show wishes you a very happy Thanksgiving.
What am I thankful for this year?
- The fact that I haven’t been incarcerated.
- A global economic crisis that has created many profitable trades (and fools like Howard Lindzon who make those those trades possible).
- Patrón Gran Burdeos and Cohiba Esplendidos.
- Young impressionable models from Europe who spend their winters in Punta del Este.
- All of the “entrepreneurs” focused on Web 2.0 and not on the real money-making opportunities.
- My sponsors.
Enjoy your chicken tomorrow.

Chicken. Awesome.
So, from your Argentinian’s perspective, what are the real money-making opportunities I should focus on?
Steve: any business in which you provide a product or service and somebody pays you for it is a good start. If I told you what I do then I’d just be creating more competition for myself.
PS: I’m not Argentinian. You’re off by a country.
Drama, what sort of food do you eat over there?
I come from Scotland and quite frankly I believe that most of our national dishes were created as a result of a bet or dare.
Graham: well today is actually my last day in the United States (I’ve been on “vacation” here for a month) and I’m going to a dinner this evening before I leave so it looks like turkey for me.
In Punta (which is where I live half of the year), we have a pretty wide selection. There’s plenty of great seafood and international cuisine. Punta is the Riviera of South America and a lot of wealthy Europeans visit in the summer so the type of food reflects that (as does the price).
If you’re looking for regional cuisine, there are a lot of dishes with Brazilian and Argentinian influence. I’ve been to quite a few steakhouses while in the US but nothing compares to Argentinian steak in my opinion. If you ever visit, be sure to try parilla.
I have cousins in the US so I occasionally go over to see them. The food they have in the cafe’s can be quite nice if you avoid the chain restaurants but the food in the supermarket seems loaded with chemicals.
I find it pretty strange how there is sugar in their bread and most of the cheese over there has a plastic taste.
Perhaps while you were there you managed to find a better selection of food than I did.
