DID YOU KNOW?

A TALK ON WHALES AND PERFUMERY.

Did you know‭
that whale s**t‭
is used‭
as a fixative‭

in perfumery‭?
(The girls in the office‭
looked perplexed‭)
Ambergris‭

is usually passed‭
in the‭ ‬faecal matter.‭
It is speculated‭
that an ambergris mass‭

is too large‭
to be passed‭
through the intestines‭
so is expelled‭

via the mouth,‭
leading‭
to the reputation‭
of ambergris‭

as primarily coming‭
from whale's vomit.
‭(‬The office girls
smiled meekly.‭)

Anyway,‭ ‬I think‭
I’ve enlightened‭
your lives enough‭
for one day.‭

This is beautiful. You must be so proud.
I'm sorry for your loss.
