Civilised communities have been selling squashed jungle berries since time immemorial. It used to be called “The Elixir of The Gods.” Homer must have far more information on the subject. If any readers of this publication are Classical Greek scholars or comedians, please suggest a name for the concoction which Bob calls ViaViente and I call Bob’s Junggle Juice.”
What effect did “The Elixir of the Gods.” have on the human body parts and the human brain’s pleasure centres? I can not wait to start reading Homer again. It is reputed to have increased a mortal’s life span if the mortal could scrounge some from the Mount Olympian Gods’s dining table. As the Gods spent a lot of their time in drunken stupors, that did happen on rare occasions. The swill probably helped the Gods to alleviate some of the worst damage caused from war wounds, hangovers and DTs. It may have eased physical pain in one way or another. I can not remember much about The Elixir. Start reading Homer lads and lasses. This is the ideal time to do some research which will keep the Krimm team on their toes for a long, long time.
What has stuck in my mind for fifty or more years is the effect that The Elixir had on the Mount Olympian Goddesses, when their male counterparts had swilled it by the gallon. Most of the Gods carried on drinking until they fell asleep under the table. The female immortals were left feeling a bit randy, so they lusted after mortal flesh. What could they do about that fantasy? Homer gives us the answer.
It was tradition in ancient Greece for the alpha males, (usually the conquering Generals) to strip naked and allow the maidens to bath them in public, usually in “The Market Place.” You can bet that there were a few randy Goddesses in the audience when that ritual was performed. Cartoonists take note. We must ply Stormy with Bob’s Jungle Juice. Wouldn’t you love to see her in the queue to enter his bathroom and offer her services to attend to his ablutions. If you have mistakenly assumed that I have collared a dirty word or expression, please look up the word ablutions in the dictionary?
I do not think Homer went into graphic details about the biology involved in human couplings but he does infer that it it happened or that one or either of the parties fantasised about the act. That thought inspired many of the World’s greatest artists to create wonderful paintings of mortal males and immortal females enjoying post prandial repose. If you can paint, this is a wonderful opportunity to conjure up the picture in your mind’s eye. That is a picture that you may be able to sell to the big man himself.
I would not advise any of my readers to get involved with any of the juice programs at present. Most of these Internet smoothies are made from Himalayan goji, blue berries, acacia, mangosteen or pomegranate. They are already on the shelves on British supermarkets. They are probably just as good as Bob’s Jungle Juice. They are certainly a lot cheaper. Ask a zookeeper to give a few bottles of all the competing brand names to a variety of his or her charges. Let the apes decide which is the best variety. Offer your vet a free bottle. He or she will be able to describe the health giving qualities in far more profession terms than Bob’s web designers. He or she will be able to tell you which of ingredient is most likely to be beneficial to the human primate. Do these drinks have any medicinal value substances or any natural ingredient which could be poisonous to a human primate, if it is consumed in large quantities. The vet probably knows more about this subject than your doctor as other primate species have been eating them for centuries..
