From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This mixed drink or bartending-related article is supported by the Mixed Drinks WikiProject, a project to improve Wikipedia's materials related to mixed drinks, bartending, and related subjects. This article is off to a fairly good start, but it still needs a lot of help. It needs to have a good introduction, be well-rounded, discuss the origins and history of the topic, provide current information, give pop-cultural references, and clearly establish the notability and importance of the topic. Not every topic covers all of that, but certainly as much as possible should be included.

[edit] Pirates Quote

That quote from Jack Sparrow? I don't recognize it, so if anyone does, could he or she put down which of the two movies it is from? Thanks

This quote is very un-encyclopedia-like. it doesn't fit in factually, and it really doesn't make sense to include a quote from a fictional source rather than a real notable person. Stevo D

I've removed the section because it smelled of bad writing. I couldn't be bothered to verify the quotations, but they do not seem particularly relevant to the article. Just sort of, hey, here's a Fun Fact™: these people like this drink. Eris Discord | Talk 04:00, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What about the chair?

While this is a great article about the drink, a separate article should be made about the chair, and then a disambiguation page leading to both.

[edit] Were the Bumbo brand got its name from:

“Bumbo” is also a Brand that was first registered as a Trade Mark in South Africa in 1999. The first Bumbo product, the Bumbo “Baby Sitter” is a revolutionary (child development device). This cleverly designed and patented chair seats babies who can’t yet sit up on their own in an upright sitting position. The Bumbo Trade mark was derived from this first Bumbo product the “Baby Sitter” as an acronym of the words “bum” and “bottom”. Bumbo International has since developed and introduced a range of world class baby products branded under the Bumbo Trade Mark.
