"Upon the secession of Virginia, April 17, 1861, a convention was entered into between that State and the Confederate States of America, after which the seat of the Confederate government was removed to Richmond, and the Congress assembled there July 20th; from which time properly commences the history of the Confederate navy."
"Those with hairy stomachs tend to generate more fluff, as abdominal hair is alleged to assist with dislodging fibres from clothes then collecting and channelling them into the navel. Also those with larger bellies often experience greater volumes of fluff - possibly due the tendency of large stomachs to possess deeper navels, thus a larger space for the lint to lodge in.
But how does it accumulate in the navel? Dr Donald E. Smith remarks that navels may possess a moist and sticky secretion that catches whatever lands nearby. On the other hand, Dr Bhupendar S. Gupta, whose doctorate is in the study of textile fibres, attributes the accumulation of navel fluff to the stomach's "microclimate" - where the flow of air between clothing and the abdomen carries small lint particles that get lodged in the navel.

Each January 19, Edgar Allen Poe's birthday, a solitary mourner of unknown identity leaves a half-consumed bottle of cognac and a single rose on Poe's grave. The unknown mourner has left this tribute each year for many decades.
....If you are still interested in adopting a piggie from me after we have had a discussion regarding the care and raising of the Potbellied Pig then you will need to send an unrefundable cheque of $75.00 Canadian to reserve your piggie. Your deposit will be cheerfully be refunded if I am unable to place the piggie you desire of piggie is found to have a genetic defect, confirmed in writing by your vet.
In the end, it will look a lot like pollywog ponds towards the end of a long, hot summer day, and smell about the same. But it is going to be "where the action is," and we're going to find it hard to avoid watching it -- even if the only sane response to watching the twentieth stump speech of Howard Dean, Wesley Clark, or Al Sharpton is poking out your pupils with red-hot needles.

I actually get something from Sharpton.....the class of THAT field.
