Note from el editor
(*) Mate:
Stimulating tealike beverage, popular in some South American countries -mainly Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay-, brewed from the dried leaves milled (or crushed) -yerba mate- of an evergreen shrub or tree (Ilex paraguariensis) related to holly.
It contains caffeine and tannin but is less astringent than tea. To brew mate, the dried leaves (yerba) are placed in dried hollow gourds (mates) decorated with silver and covered with near -but not- boiling water and steeped. The tea is sucked from the gourd with a tube, often made of silver, with a strainer at one end to catch leaf particles. Though usually served plain, mate is sometimes flavored with milk, sugar, or lemon juice.

Kenny Clarke en bateria!!!!!!
Si! el famoso Klook (después aka Liaqat Ali Salaam), que empezó a tirar las "bombas" desde el bombo en el comienzo del bop.
Y también está Joe Garland en saxo tenor, que compuso "In the mood" el famoso tema que hiciera la orquesta de Glenn Miller en 1939.
Hablando del mate, ayer en "Caloi y su tinta" abrieron el programa dedicado a la animación argentina con "Seaside woman".
Estas y otras noticias en el rotativo de las 9.
Oscar, la dimensión metafísica del mate, que no cabría en la, por otro lado, completísima definición en inglés (ni en cualquier otra definición), se hace más que evidente en el dibujo.
Aunque sin braserito ni cortina de paja, en ese estado exacto de las cosas me encuentro en este momento.
Se agradece el retrato.
¡Qué lindo! Me representa al "ranchito de Alsina" de "Nobleza de arrabal"...
El Turco Quique.
en cualquier momento le aparece por detras el comisario de Solano Lopez y en su estilo....no me acuerdo como se llamaba...seria divertido .....no?..
¡¡Jaque!!
me pregunto cómo hará pa' cerrar la cortina de juncos desde adentro...
