Ah, yes, you hadn't mentioned the pickpoking before, but now you have,
suddenly I am flooded with memories of when my pick was incessantly poked
in a small provincial town in what is otherwise the lovely county of
Buenos Aires.
My response was to swear never to return, at least not with a pick I
valued so much that I wouldn't mind it poked.
(And my brother-in-law was also propositioned by a homo, but the following
morning it seemed that he'd quite enjoyed the experience. I will say
nothing of my own wife's experience with the county's Indians, save to
say that the bills for the therapy alone have been crippling.)
Take care
Jon
