Prelude to the Mayonnaise Chapter
The Eskimos live among ice all their lives but have no single word for ice. Man: His First Million Years, by M. F. Ashley Montagu
Human language is in some ways similar to, but in other ways vastly different from, other kinds of animal communication. We simply have no idea about its evolutionary history, though many people have speculated about its possible origins. There is, for instance, the bow-bow theory, that language started from attempts to imitate animal sounds. Or the ding- dong theory, that it arose from natural sound-producing responses. Or the pooh-pooh theory, that it began with violent outcries and exclamations We have no way of knowing whether the kinds of men represented by the earliest fossils could talk or not language does not leave fossils, at least not until it has become written Man in Nature, by Marston Bates
But no animal up a tree can initiate a culture. The Simian Basis of Human Mechanics, in Twilight of Man, by Earnest Albert Hooton
Expressing a human need, I always wanted to write a book that ended with the word Mayonnaise
The Mayonnaise Chapter
Feb 3-1952
Dearest Florence and Harv.
I just heard from Edith about the passing of Mr. Good. Our heart goes out to you in deepest sympathy Gods will be done. He has lived a good long life and he has gone to a better place. You were expecting it and it was nice you could see him yesterday even if he did not know you. You have our prayers and love and we will see you soon.
God bless you both.
Love Mother and Nancy.
P.S.
Sorry I forgot to give you the mayonaise. (Intentionally)
