Back to the important stuff - trivia!
In one of Hemingway's books, he writes about a character known as El Sordo. What does the name mean and what is the title of the book?
Was it the name of the swordfish in Old Man and the Sea?
:D No, I didn't think so....
No it wasn't. So you're right when you say that you didn't think so but that's still not a right answer. Right? :pQuote:

So that's where the expression "pooping through the eye of a needle" came from.
