Aberforth and Mycroft

Sherlock Holmes, a man not noted for his modesty, admitted that his
older brother Mycroft was even smarter than he was, the only reason
few had heard of Mycroft was that he was very lazy and extremely
strange. I was wondering if JKR could have something similar in mind
for Aberforth. I'm probably dead wrong but I picture Aberforth as a
good man and a magical genius even greater than his brother but very
hard to work with because you can't get a straight answer out of him,
I see Aberforth as a sort of magical Rainman (I'm a excellent
bartender, I get my boxer shorts at K-Mart in Cincinnati.) I'll tell
you one thing, Aberforth must be odd indeed if even Mad Eye calls him
a "strange chap". And I don't even want to talk about the goats.
