so, bachelor numero dos responded to the “thoughtful” (thanks suzz) question regarding homosexuality, and his response was not only reasonable… he could relate. seems “esteban” (as we’ll call him) has a gay brother. go figure.
it’s the latest accessory.
esteban is a bit of a paradox to me. some things he says make me think, ‘this guy is real and has lived and i think we could be friends.’ other things make me think, ‘are you brainwashed?’ so we’ll see what’s behind door number 2, i suppose.

I’m sure your question threw the guy for a loop since the “typical” question is little deeper than, “Would you rather have Thai food or corn flakes?” (My experience, anyway.)On an unrelated note, I saw your review of “The Pilgrimage.” It’s on my to-read list as I really liked “The Alchemist” by the same author.-m
