Ask the Colonel Anything

[~Elizabeth~]

I was born in the USA. My parents were born in Galicia, Spain. Although I've had family here since the 1920s (one great-grandfather lived in Colorado and another in West Virginia, etc.)

Thank you for answering my questions.

What if I tell you that you should date Elizabeth?

This is the internet.

Someone in another thread said Spaniards have a lot of body hair. Do you have chest hair?
Are you naturally hairy or naturally smooth like Elon Musk? (I've seen photos of Elon Musk on a boat. He doesn't have chest hair.)





For the record, I also like Elon Musk as he is, pale and hairless.

Colonel, given that you are a fan of history like me, I feel the need to fire the following questions at you: What's your opinion of the early Bourbon rulers in Spain (up to Ferdinand VII)? and what's your assessment of them Bourbons vs the Habsburghs?

Overall, the 18th century Bourbons were good for Spain. Overall, the Bourbons got the upper hand over the Habsburgs.

I'll ask a question I also asked Beowulf in his thread. He lives in Spain.

Have you ever seen flamenco dancing? Do you like it?

Have you ever been to Spain?

What are your feelings/thoughts on bullfighting?

I don't think I have. Flamenco is an Andalusian folk dance. Almost everything people think of as Spanish is Andalusian (except the running of bulls is in Pamplona).

Have you ever been to Spain?

Many times. Always Galicia except one time I went to Andalusia, Castile, Extremadura, Murcia, and Valencia. Twice to Madrid.

What are your feelings/thoughts on bullfighting?

It should be banned. I don't have sympathy for bullfighters who get harmed or killed. They tried to ban it a few times centuries ago but the hoi polli wouldn't stand for it.

Have you been to any countries outside of the USA besides Spain?

When you fly on a plane, do you prefer a window seat or an aisle seat?
