You mean George H.W. Bush, right, Rio?
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

Yeah, that was the father - not the son-of-a-Bush.

Are you ready to be strong?
Oh, whoops. Yes. I just accidentally typed that W. in there. Maybe he put a spell on my typing fingers.

Don't worry Rio. You gave me an excuse for saying Son-of-a-Bush which always gives me an unreasonable degree of satisfaction.

Whiting is a fish? I always thought it was just whitefish.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Elena's husband and I have been tackling this.
Whiting is probably a regional name for a particular fish as yet determined. I practically lived on it when I was a kid in Florida.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
`"Will you walk a little faster?" said a whiting to a snail.
"There's a porpoise close behind us, and he's treading on my
tail.
See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance!
They are waiting on the shingle--will you come and join the
dance?
`I can tell you more than that, if you like,' said the Gryphon. `Do you know why it's called a whiting?'
`I never thought about it,' said Alice. `Why?'
`It does the boots and shoes.' the Gryphon replied very solemnly.
Alice was thoroughly puzzled. `Does the boots and shoes!' she repeated in a wondering tone.
`Why, what are your shoes done with?' said the Gryphon. `I mean, what makes them so shiny?'
Alice looked down at them, and considered a little before she gave her answer. `They're done with blacking, I believe.'
`Boots and shoes under the sea,' the Gryphon went on in a deep voice, `are done with a whiting. Now you know.'

Fiona, certainly the group I was with was well-satisfied by the episode, and were greatly hopeful about the season to come. There were also some very neat surprises in this show that it is indeed better to not be spoiled about. (Thanks to every Spoiler Whore on this board for their forebearance in dropping hints and guarding against outright blurting-out!)

I find myself hoping that (a) Season 7 really is the final season; and (b) the show goes out on a high.
