I thought I’d heard all of Parker’s quotes, but never that one. Excellent. You know, she died hacking out soap opera dialogue for the studios in NYC. She was cremated and her ashes were sent to her lawyer/agent and weren’t claimed for another seventeen years.

She didn’t have a lot of friends in the end as alcoholism stole away the few pleasant aspects of her irascible personality. But she did make regular donations to the NAACP all her life. So, when her lawyer died and they found her ashes on the lawyer’s bookshelf, the NAACP claimed them and gave her a very nice burial and placed her ashes in a small monument in front of their offices in Baltimore.

Chich Bang. Peruvian (ancient Incan), extremely bitter drink made from fermented apples and coca leaves. Sugar helps.

Throughout South America you can identify the unlicensed bodegas that serve these types of drinks—often a back room in someone’s house serving as a supplement to family income— by a tall bamboo pole with a red flag atop.

Cormorant I just learned recently that old time sailors ate a LOT of sea birds. Ewww! haha

Espiritus_Corvus's avatar

Albatross

These are huge gulls with large wingspans that could take them very far out to sea. They are often the first sign of land to a sailor, many days away from their intended landing. They were considered helpful and to kill one for any reason was bad luck. To eat one would be an abomination. Men who killed albatrosses, whether by accident or intention, had the bird hung around their neck by the crew and were considered cursed and the crew cursed by their actions.

Coloma's avatar

@Espiritus_Corvus Interesting. I know what Albatrosses are but I did not know that history. The article I read talked about seabird colonies, Terns and other sea cliff nesters. They were picked off and pickled. gah, pickled birds. haha

Pelican

Espiritus_Corvus's avatar

Blue Footed Boobies

Seabird eggs were precious food and easy pickings on any rock in the ocean. A flock could be downed by one round of birdshot from a 12 pound mortar. When in desperation, a bomb made from black powder and oiled cloth could be dropped overside and bring up a school of dead fish in the right waters which could feed a whole crew. Wild vegetables and fruits were available on most tropical islands of moderate size. The diet of life on the sea is much more varied than most people think.

yes @Espiritus_Corvus, on a two masted ship the binnacle and wheel (or tiller) are ahead of the second mast (usually on the transom) on a yawl. On a ketch the wheel (or tiller) and binnacle are behind the second mast.

Trumpery (04:20 am AST, 9 November, 2016)

Trumpery derives from the Middle English “trompery” and ultimately from the Middle French tromper, meaning “to deceive.” ... Trumpery first appeared in English in the mid-15th century with the meanings “deceit or fraud” and “worthless nonsense.”
