Things you learn editing other things
One of the dubious benefits of editing is that one learns a lot of not-particularly-useful, but still interesting, trivia. I ran across this factoid adding a footnote for English speakers to a translation of a book on Mexican sex workers.
See if you can figure out what these three guys have in common (and the answer has nothing to do with Mexico, or sex workers):
Yes ! They were all born in Panama City. Trivia. but bot trivial.
Damn… you’re good! And all three had foreign nationality from birth. Bosé is unusual in that he was born with dual citizenship (his father is a Spaniard, his mother Italian, and now he’s a Colombian), McCain’s father was a U.S. Navy officer, and born on what was considered U.S. territory at the time, and Fuente’s father was the Mexican Ambassador to Panama.
