Will it smell faintly of aftershave, or of grackles? You're assuming Gene's aftershave and grackles don't smell alike. It dawns on me that I have reached the age of 57 without ever smelling a grackle. What do they smell like? This is something I have never thought about before and there are no grackle in the vicinity to smell. From this Wikipedia article, it is possible they smell like formic acid due to their habit of "anting." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anting_(bird_activity) I don't know what an individual grackle smells like, but hundreds of thousands of them together smell like enormous mounds of ****. At UT, in Austin TX, back in the 80s huge flocks of them used to roost on campus every night, and the campus maintenance guys used to literally hose all the sidewalks down every night, just to keep it walkable. Eventually they deployed enough propane cannons and guys with shotguns loaded with cracker shells to convince most of the grackles to move on. ObBicycle: I clearly remember one bicycle that a clueless student had chained right under a grackle tree. The top tube appeared to be at least 3" in diameter, because it was covered in ****. No one ever retrieved the bicycle, it sat there for months. -- |

From the angle of their bodies and arms it looks like they are all rowing port. Look at the two oarsmen forward of the Coxswain. Each oarsman has one oar. Or count the oars. 8 oarsmen and only 4 oars on the port side. -- Cheers, John B. |
