I know now what will haunt my nightmares til I die.

Not that I'm religious, but the new pope is Argentinian, and is actually making me pay attention to his policies. Very surprising, considering the history of the Christian church, especially recently.

Not that I want anything bad to happen to him, but I can't help wondering who's assassins will get to him first, the Vatican's or the USA's TeaBaggers/GOP, because someone, somewhere, made a dreadful (for the establishment) mistake in electing him pope. For the little people of the world (that's us peons), he is a breath of fresh air.

Off the top of my head, without resorting to wikipedia/google:

Adopted home to the almighty Malbec grape variety in wine.

Home of Juan Del Portro, the tall, hard-hitting tennis player and U.S. Open winner.

The first country Che Guevara visited in his cross-continental motorcycle odyssey as a young man.

Very prodigious tradition of film-making in the country, goes back to the turn-of-the-century. 9 Queens is a fantastic flick.
