El sábado fui a una boda. Al llegar tuve que colocarme en el lado derecho de la iglesia, que era el lugar que le correspondía a la familia del novio. Como suele ocurrir, el futuro marido llegó bastante tiempo antes que la novia y me acerqué a saludarle. Pude comprobar que iba maquillado y que llevaba el chaleco y la corbata propios del frac.
Como yo vestía un disfraz de Sonny Crockett (traje beige y una camiseta roja) no desentonaba en absoluto en aquel ambiente tan americano. Esperé que el cura mencionara en algún momento lo de "Si alguien conoce algún impedimento para que no se lleve a cabo la unión entre estas dos personas, que hable ahora o calle para siempre" o aquello otro de "ahora puede besar a la novia", aunque no sucedió.
Durante aquella tarde-noche, tuve que fingir acordarme de familiares que habré visto unas pocas veces en mi vida, besar (en la mejilla) a más hombres que en los últimos diez años y soportar estoicamente la pregunta: ¿Y tú por qué no tienes novia?.
Todos me llamaban por mi apodo de la niñez, no importaba todo lo vivido desde entonces, que,como desconocidos que en el fondo somos, no pudieramos intercambiar más de dos o tres frases de cortesía. Para esas personas estoy clasificado, etiquetado, de por vida.
Al menos saqué unos cuantos chismes, y la sorpresa de darme cuenta que los amores y odios, las rencillas y las venganzas de mi familia son tan apasionantes como los de cualquier culebrón televisivo. Yo también tengo, supongo que como todos, mi "Falcon Crest" particular.

Posted by: Juan Gaitán on Septiembre 9, 2003 12:54 PMThe reason ESP, for example, is not considered a viable topic in contemoprary
psychology is simply that its investigation has not proven fruitful...After
more than 70 years of study, there still does not exist one example of an ESP
phenomenon that is replicable under controlled conditions. This simple but
basic scientific criterion has not been met despite dozens of studies conducted
over many decades...It is for this reason alone that the topic is now of little
interest to psychology...In short, there is no demonstrated phenomenon that
needs explanation.
