It appears that Alec Baldwin’s wife is not Spanish

    I’m not sure that you can understand devotion to a Spanish woman without appreciating this:


    -Yo sé, Olalla, que me adoras,
    puesto que no me lo has dicho
    ni aun con los ojos siquiera,
    mudas lenguas de amoríos.
    Porque sé que eres sabida,
    en que me quieres me afirmo;
    que nunca fue desdichado
    amor que fue conocido.
    Bien es verdad que tal vez,
    Olalla, me has dado indicio
    que tienes de bronce el alma
    y el blanco pecho de risco.
    Mas allá entre tus reproches
    y honestísimos desvíos,
    tal vez la esperanza muestra
    la orilla de su vestido.
    Abalánzase al señuelo
    mi fe, que nunca ha podido,
    ni menguar por no llamado,
    ni crecer por escogido.
    Si el amor es cortesía,
    de la que tienes colijo
    que el fin de mis esperanzas
    ha de ser cual imagino.
    Y si son servicios parte
    de hacer un pecho benigno,
    algunos de los que he hecho
    fortalecen mi partido.
    Porque si has mirado en ello,
    más de una vez habrás visto
    que me he vestido en los lunes
    lo que me honraba el domingo.
    Como el amor y la gala
    andan un mesmo camino,
    en todo tiempo a tus ojos
    quise mostrarme polido.
    Dejo el bailar por tu causa,
    ni las músicas te pinto
    que has escuchado a deshoras
    y al canto del gallo primo.
    No cuento las alabanzas
    que de tu belleza he dicho;
    que, aunque verdaderas, hacen
    ser yo de algunas malquisto.
    Teresa del Berrocal,
    yo alabándote, me dijo:
    ''Tal piensa que adora a un ángel,
    y viene a adorar a un jimio;
    merced a los muchos dijes
    y a los cabellos postizos,
    y a hipócritas hermosuras,
    que engañan al Amor mismo''.
    Desmentíla y enojóse;
    volvió por ella su primo:
    desafióme, y ya sabes
    lo que yo hice y él hizo.
    No te quiero yo a montón,
    ni te pretendo y te sirvo
    por lo de barraganía;
    que más bueno es mi designio.
    Coyundas tiene la Iglesia
    que son lazadas de sirgo;
    pon tú el cuello en la gamella;
    verás como pongo el mío.
    Donde no, desde aquí juro,
    por el santo más bendito,
    de no salir destas sierras
    sino para capuchino.

    I went out with a woman for a while - found out she changed her first name to a foreign-version at some point. Still a nice person, but it also made me wonder - I also know a couple who changed their names (first and last) making their names sound more fairy tale-ish.

    When you meet someone and they have a "cool name" and then your realize it's not their birthname - it does change the way you think about them. I mean shoot - Faith Popcorn? - Hey I get it, Faith Plotkin isn't going to sell many books or get many morning show hits.

    Strange one, too.

    "Maligned" = speak critically of someone.

    Seems it would just be the opposite of "aligned" = placed or arranged in a straight line. But I guess that falls to "misaligned."

    Damn, I always thought the Baldwins were a normal family.

    Well, Alec needs to repent to Christ and then get a massage.
