Moby's Dick got around. Tom Send a noteboard - 30/10/2010 05:29:48 AM
I'm starting to wonder if the sexual double entendres were intentional..."the great white whale", the "town-ho", "call me bitch Ishmael". Is it really about whaling or is it all about sex?
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

Perhaps. If it didn't have that stupid hyphen in the title. *NM* - 30/10/2010 04:40:29 PM 678 Views
Hell, I'd probably flip to that chapter and read it first *NM* - 30/10/2010 07:43:50 PM 346 Views
