My phrasing is really weird today. Probably shouldn't write much of anything. Other than Coltrane's next writing sample.

FYI, anyone from now on named Starbuck is named after the Moby Dick character.
Yes, Howard liked Moby Dick and named his coffee place after the character. It is also why there is a mermaid on the cups. A mermaid that the conservative right wanted to have removed from the cups because it was too suggestive. Yes, too suggestive. Her with her spreading her fins and all. Come to think of it, I think she was changed because she was a little more suggestive before.
