******* Yes I did. And, at one time Argentina was considered a great
success.
I have followed the travails, on the internet , of a man who lived through
their
first collapse. He has written about the crime, the gov't oppression;
because of his experiences, and the fact that a cache of gold helped him to
survive and to get out of the country and have the means to start a new life,
makes him sort of a gold bug

****** You are alone ?; I thought you had moved there with family or it was
family land. Sometimes it is difficult for me to keep up with and remeber
people's backgrounds and situations. There are many strong women on this
list who may be able to advise you. As far as the "community" idea,
give it more time, If that is what you want, other people have done it
successfully.

******* Yes I did. And, at one time Argentina was considered a great
success.
I have followed the travails, on the internet , of a man who lived through
their
first collapse. He has written about the crime, the gov't oppression;
because of his experiences, and the fact that a cache of gold helped him to

****** You are alone ?; I thought you had moved there with family or it was
family land. Sometimes it is difficult for me to keep up with and remeber
people's backgrounds and situations. There are many strong women on this
list who may be able to advise you. As far as the "community" idea,
give it more time, If that is what you want, other people have done it
successfully.

******* Yes I did. And, at one time Argentina was considered a great
success.
I have followed the travails, on the internet , of a man who lived through
their
first collapse. He has written about the crime, the gov't oppression;
because of his experiences, and the fact that a cache of gold helped him to
survive and to get out of the country and have the means to start a new life,
makes him sort of a gold bug

****** You are alone ?; I thought you had moved there with family or it was
family land. Sometimes it is difficult for me to keep up with and remeber
people's backgrounds and situations. There are many strong women on this
list who may be able to advise you. As far as the "community" idea,
give it more time, If that is what you want, other people have done it
successfully.

****** You are alone ?; I thought you had moved there with family or it was
family land. Sometimes it is difficult for me to keep up with and remeber
people's backgrounds and situations. There are many strong women on this
list who may be able to advise you. As far as the "community" idea,
give it more time, If that is what you want, other people have done it
successfully.

******* Yes I did. And, at one time Argentina was considered a great
success.
I have followed the travails, on the internet , of a man who lived through
their
first collapse. He has written about the crime, the gov't oppression;
because of his experiences, and the fact that a cache of gold helped him to
survive and to get out of the country and have the means to start a new life,
makes him sort of a gold bug

******* Yes I did. And, at one time Argentina was considered a great
success.
I have followed the travails, on the internet , of a man who lived through
their
first collapse. He has written about the crime, the gov't oppression;
because of his experiences, and the fact that a cache of gold helped him to

****** You are alone ?; I thought you had moved there with family or it was
family land. Sometimes it is difficult for me to keep up with and remeber
people's backgrounds and situations. There are many strong women on this
list who may be able to advise you. As far as the "community" idea,
give it more time, If that is what you want, other people have done it
successfully.

******* Yes I did. And, at one time Argentina was considered a great
success.
I have followed the travails, on the internet , of a man who lived through
their
first collapse. He has written about the crime, the gov't oppression;
because of his experiences, and the fact that a cache of gold helped him to
survive and to get out of the country and have the means to start a new life,
makes him sort of a gold bug

****** You are alone ?; I thought you had moved there with family or it was
family land. Sometimes it is difficult for me to keep up with and remeber
people's backgrounds and situations. There are many strong women on this
list who may be able to advise you. As far as the "community" idea,
give it more time, If that is what you want, other people have done it
successfully.

Alone - I should have written that more clearly.... I am on my parents
property, they are here,,,, but they are elderly and can not help me.... I
have to do the work alone - myself.  Although my dad on the days he can walk
out to the garage sits and explains to me how to do things.  He taught me how
to fix a brake problem earlier this year (fun, except I'm not found of
getting my hands full of mechanic grease).  My mom has been fairly mobile
until this past month or so. 
 
I'm pretty strong, have stacked a lot of heavy hay bales most of my life for
one... but I don't have the hand strength I used to have any more.  This year
I've been recovering from knee surgery, and i have the good day bad day thing
going on.  In time will need a knee transplant... and I'm definitely counting
on being able to get that.
 
I had an Argentinian client, who's family was going thru that.  Somehow, the
brother realized things were about the collapse and called his sister in
Miami and asked if he couuld wire her all of their money.  Within a week or
two the collapse happened.  Last I talked to them, they were shopping in
Miami and shipping supplies to them, and that was just a couple years ago, as
supplies were still hard to get.   
 
Was he able to use the gold in Argentina until he got out?

You know that my Bear Bear is an Aussie..He's the best! You can see him
in some of the pictures on myspace. If I am outside, he is outside.

Well, Bear had already removed the tail of this one, but in her 'dead'
state, I got a good look at her pouch, which reminded me of a blue
testicle on her belly button..lol.. It was like a large bluish gray
grape..very strange looking and not what I had imagined a pouch would
look like. I think I must have thought it was like a kangaroo pouch or
something. I think I refered to her as Mr. Possum in the last post, but
it really was a female, I just call everything Mister.
The first time I ever saw a possum, I was in the 5th grade. A classmate
named Rhett, who I had the biggest crush on, brought in a baby possum
and that prehensile tail was curled around his finger and the baby was
hanging upside down. I thought that was the coolest thing, and of
course, that Rhett was the coolest hippie-wannabe(this was circa 1970).

>

No, I didn't know that, but I was woo'ed in there for a second. I was
bent over looking at that pouch and those teeth when I realized it was
still alive and could jump up and bite me at any second-it is rare, I
hear, for them to be rabid, but it would be just my luck. They have a
LOT of teeth..and I was actually thinking "land shark" because of that
mouth and the fact that they eat all kinds of stuff. I also was amazed
by the fur, which looked as long and soft as the most beautiful Persian cat.

If it had been a big possum, I might be inclined to think the lack of
eggs was due to the water freezing up at night. BUT, the way the
chickens didn't want to go into the coop to eat combined with the loss
of eggs AND the fact that the possum was small enough to go through the
holes in the fence...I'm betting it was possum..
