    Is Hector a zeleb?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Who was in front of you?

    And what were you told about looking behind you? You'll turn into a pillar of salt.

    Wasn't the actually queue he was in but he was in the same office were we have to sing on.

    I could tell it was him because he had two frozen heads in a bag with him.

    Seems like an educated man, so yes, I'd say he does.
