#25: The Old Man and the Sea
This next trivia fact brings up a lot of questions. For one thing, what in the world possessed Ernest Hemingway to get on the second plane? If I had been in a plane crash, even if I had walked away unscathed, I would need a couple of years before I felt comfortable getting back on a plane.
Second, how did he survive, and where did he find all that gin? Third, is there anything more Ernest Hemingway than stumbling up when you were supposed to be dead with a bottle of gin in your hand?
