I wonder if my pharoah hound’s ancestors went along for the ride? You know they are sight hounds.
The dude on the right has some serious issues. He evolved a longer snout to better snort the cocaine no doubt. Unnerstan this was before the WOD (war on drugs). But no doubt they were fun to party with.
Although he does not have a sailing licence, Mr Gorlitz will be steering the vessel himself.
"It's like kung fu," the explorer said. "The less you know, the better."
Well, sure! I'll sail across the Atlantic Ocean with him...
Thanks, that’s a new one for me! From what I’m seeing, the Chachapoyas first seem to show up around 200-800 AD, so I’m thinking they may have a different explanation than the Egyptian coke.
What could go wrong? Count *me* in.

Dancin’ by the Nile,

He ate a crocodile.
Nymphaea caerulea, known primarily as blue lotus (or blue Egyptian lotus), but also blue water lily (or blue Egyptian water lily), and sacred blue lily (or sacred narcotic lily of the nile), is a water-lily in the genus Nymphaea. Like other species in the genus, the plant contains the psychoactive alkaloid apomorphine. It was known to the Mayan and Ancient Egyptian civilisations. Its original habitat may have been along the Nile and other parts of East Africa. It spread more widely in ancient times, including to the Indian Subcontinent and Thailand.
