Phil,

Dr. Architeuthis, eh? Sounds like naming characters isn't the author's strong suit.

"One sailor hopes the riches will help him settle away from the sea to raise rabbits."

Where he will love them and hug them and squeeze them and pet them, and call them George.

Nor is cuisine, if the title is to be believed.....
