#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 of 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?
