Este año, más que nunca, cómo no rendirles homenaje ayer a los médicos en su día, cómo no agradecerles tanto esfuerzo, tanta vocación de servicio, tanta entrega, tanto compromiso, tanta dedicación. Desde que se desató la pandemia, han estado en la línea de fuego, literalmente poniendo el cuerpo, arriesgándose, dejando Seguir leyendo
We all remember the shocking image of a Syrian boy, three-year-old Aylan Kurdi, drowned in the Mediterranean Sea, along with his mother and brother, in September 2015. Somehow, the drawing by cartoonist @Maledita Wiesel of Diego Jiménez and his twelve-year-old daughter Abigail, entering their province, Santiago del Estero, on foot, Seguir leyendo
I went to the chemist’s a couple of days ago. After I’d paid for the stuff I bought, the smiling cashier gave me a little present: a magnetic 2021 calendar for the fridge. I stared at it, incredulous, shocked, and turned as pale as a sheet. “Are you ok, Ma’am?”, Seguir leyendo
It’s a worldwide relief that Trump hasn’t been reelected as USA President. I know, he’s still in denial. He can’t admit his loss. So used to be a winner, such a show off, always boasting and blowing his own trumpet, how can he possibly come to terms with this defeat? Seguir leyendo
“Miramos el mundo una sola vez, en la infancia. El resto es memoria.” Sabias palabras de la flamante Premio Nobel de Literatura, Louise Glück. Según el informe del Observatorio de la Deuda Social de la Universidad Católica Argentina, hoy en nuestro país “hay más de 8 millones de niños con algún Seguir leyendo
I know. Don’t count your chickens before they are hatched. While I’m writing these lines (Nov 5th), we don’t know yet if Biden will be the next USA President. Partly because not all the votes have been counted, and partly because losing Donald is claiming fraud. He’s so pissed off, Seguir leyendo
She’s always there, behind the scenes, backstage, unobtrusively pulling the strings, the real power behind the throne. The mysterious lady, the one who cleverly and stategically appointed the current President. CFK: the actual CEO of Argentina. Everyone seems to fear her, as if she were a semi goddess, a monarch, Seguir leyendo
Diferencias Nos guste o no, hay que reconocer que Cristina Kirchner es muy hábil para ocupar siempre el centro de la escena. Indudablemente, una inteligente estratega. Una «prima donna» de la política. Por su presencia o por su ausencia. Por su silencio o sus dichos. Ahora, muchos consideran su enigmática Seguir leyendo
I must admit I felt so much envy when I saw José Pepe Mujica and Julio María Sanguinetti hugging. Although we are neighbouring countries, we are so far away from Uruguay in so many aspects. No wonder so many Argentines are fleeing across the river (poor Uruguayans!). Last week, both former Seguir leyendo
Once again, many people took to the streets on October 12 to protest. Actually, I’m afraid I shouldn’t use the term “people” though, because Santiago Caffiero said they/we are not “people”, not even Argentines. In Agustín Rossi’s words, we are “cowards and scoundrels”. They say protesters encourage hatred and division. That’s a Seguir leyendo
