Argentina's equivalent of cowboys were known as "gauchos".

I somehow managed to go on a date with an Argentinian gentleman who spoke very little English. It was quite a test of my Spanish.

I took 2n years of Spanish in high school and two more semeseters in college. Not even close to fluent.

Across from my office there used to be a taco place. Pedro's Tacos.

Taco Bell is both delicious and highly recommended if you're having troubles with constipation!

"Sugar, Sugar" was the big hit by the Archies.

Ah...cassette tapes! I don't know how much this was exaggerated, but I've seen headlines that imply that cassette tapes and players have made a comeback because of the popularity of the Guardians of the Galaxy films. Not sure if this is true, but I doubt it's more than a tiny niche comeback that probably far trails behind the enduring appeal of vinyls in certain circles.

Indeed. I can understand a few super-Starlord fans who might want to use those tapes, but come on! There's a reason cassette taps and floppy disks have given way to better technology...

But you can rewind a cassette tape with a pencil. Try doing that to vinyl.

I don't think cassette tapes will make a comeback. Vinyl at least has the appeal of the beautiful album art and relatively easy storage since they're so thin. I don't know what appeal cassette tapes hold.

Plus with cassettes, it was impossible to find a particular song unless it was the first song.

Styx and Stone were two rather forgettable Spider-Man villains co-created by none other than Todd McFarlane. Good thing he has the Venom thing going for him.....

I think this TV version of Spider-Man blows its contemporaneous Amazing Friends show out of the water, but no one I know seems to have ever seen it:
