Not positive but I believe 'segunda' is second as in second hand , and 'segundo' is second, as in second in line,or a race position......I do not
think gender is involved.

Would that make you segundo or segunda
Or both

"Esposo segundo" I believe..........notice I now state 'I believe' in every post.....Nomads are wonderfully brutal if I am off the mark at all!!!
(I guess second husband could be considered a race position!)

Now, now, now, are you saying that perhaps our brains have a special little memory bank that stores everything you ever did that might come in handy
later---like when you missed the birthday 15 years ago?
But the really important question, is that called a segunda or segundo memory bank?

All I know is The 3rd husband usually sticks around because he benefits from the segundo husband

back (sort of) to thread but not quite cause I'm gonna jump to Loreto. where the few segundas I have encountered are very proud of their merchandise.
way way too expensive for stuff that Goodwill shoppers rejected in the states. and much more expensive than those I have encountered in other
Mexican cities. I've heard there are some in the Miramar area, anyone tried those? directions?
in La Paz I prefer the ones out Forjedoras on the left to those entering from the north. okay I mangled that spelling, feel free to correct.
reality\'s never been of much use out here...

Miramar
Is the colonia in Loreto on the west side of the highway.
I often see a segunda dealer right up on the road there, usually on the weekends with lots of car and truck parts, sometimes some furniture.
But generally the second hand stuff available in Loreto is junky and overpriced.
I had a garage sale years ago (1986) in my front yard in Colonia Zaragoza and one guy came over and bought everything! He was a tough customer, we
were haggling all afternoon, and it was great fun!
