Excellent answer to what i thought was an ordinary question. Hamburger from Hamburg makes all the sense in the world. Lucky pigs who all get to live longer.

Another rather ordinary question, what card game was

"In 1762, John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich®, invented the meal that changed dining forever. As the story goes, he was playing cards and did not want to leave the gaming table to eat. He asked for a serving of roast beef to be placed between two slices of bread so he could eat with his hands."

the 4th Earl playing? The first answer i got is not quite as satisfying:

Aside: If he was playing cards seems the last thing he would want to eat with would be his hands. That looks a disconnect there.

It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
