Hi, jay.
Argentina.....oh, jeez what a mess.
When God was making the world, he gave it oil, pampas, cattle, wheat, great vines for great wine, beautiful spots, a wealth of natural resources, gold, silver, made provisions for highly educated folks, so much so that one of the archangels suggested to the Almighty that he might be giving one country a bit too much.
God: "Don't worry, I shall even things out by populating it with renegade Brits, Italians and Spaniards, they'll screw things up beautifully and things will remain more or less on an even keel."
Thus it was spake and thus it became. |
