  4. Btw, who is this Curacao person whom he kept calling Jose throughout the game and referred to as the originator of the Curacao liqeur?

    The Wikipedia entry says 'bout the origins of Curacao:

    Curaçao is a liqueur flavored with the dried peels of the laraha citrus fruit, grown on the island of Curaçao. A non-native plant similar to an orange, larahas developed from the sweet Valencia orange transplanted by Spanish explorers. The nutrient-poor soil and arid climate of Curaçao proved unsuitable to Valencia cultivation, rendering small bitter fruits in the trees. The aromatic peels maintained much of the essence of the Valencia varietal, and the trees were eventually bred into the current laraha species, whose fruits remain inedibly bitter.

    Initially discovered by accident, the drink was first developed and marketed by the Senior family (a Jewish family of Spanish and Portuguese descent) in the 19th century[1]

  5. Yes. This one had me foxed. I googled several variations on the spelling of the sound 'curacao' but couldn't come up with anything conclusive. We must consult the Bamillian for more details.

  8. Hmm...are you the organiser? Who is your sponsor? Who is the official media partner? Who is selling hotdogs at the do? How much are you paying law enforcement? Will there be many, many, many naked women there? (In which case, I'm in.) Is this a private party or am I allowed to bring friends?
    You have a lot of explaining to do, young man.
