Thus it would follow, as the result of acute consciousness,
     that one is not to blame in being a scoundrel,
          as though that were any consolation
               to the scoundrel once he has
                  come to realize that he
                         actually is a
                           scoundrel.

Sandwich

Named After: John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich

Although the act of eating bread with other foods dates back to prehistoric times, the modern sandwich was named after John Montagu. The exact circumstances for the naming is still a matter of debate, with 2 main hypothesizes being argued. The most popular one is that he asked his servants to bring him pieces of meat between slices of bread during long card games so the cards would not get damaged by the grease. The other is that, due to Montagu’s commitments as a statesmen, he needed a quick and easy meal which could be eaten at his desk, a concept that’s common today.

Whichever story is correct, I am sure that he had no idea that what is now one of the most popular, versatile and enduring meals would bear his name. Over 1.69 billion sandwiches were bought in the UK last year. There is even a British Sandwich Association. As well as the eponymous sandwich, Montagu was a very important British statesman, who held many positions of high office in the armed forces and the government. He was an astute politician and an excellent diplomat. He served as First Lord of the Admiralty 3 times, and was also Secretary of State for the North of England. He was a big supporter of exploration, and helped to fund Captain James Cook’s voyages. This led to the Sandwich Islands (now Hawaii), the South Sandwich Islands and Montagu Island, in Alaska, bearing his name.

Don't worry, Ms. Wolf. She doesn't mind. Just one nap, and it's all forgotten. 

A nap is a short period of sleep, usually in the daytime.  Naps may be taken when one becomes drowsy during the day or as a traditional daily practice. 

Napping has been found to be beneficial.  Napping for 20 minutes can help refresh the mind, improve overall alertness, boost mood and increase productivity.  Napping may benefit the heart. In a six-year study of Greek adults, researchers found that men who took naps at least three times a week had a 37 percent lower risk of heart-related death. (wikipedia)

nap (verb) - take a short, light sleep 
 
synonyms:  catch forty winks, catnap, doze, drop off, drowse, get some shut-eye, grab some z's, nod, nod off, rack, relax, rest, sleep, snooze, take a siesta, take a snooze 

antonyms:  attentive, awake, conscious

po·et·as·ter, n.

1. A writer of verse who does not deserve to be called a poet, despite his or her pretensions; an inferior poet lacking in ability. Trivial or worthless verse may sometimes be called poetastery.

Poetaster, like rhymester or versifier, is a contemptuous name often applied to bad or inferior poets. Specifically, poetaster has implications of unwarranted pretentions to artistic value. The word was coined in Latin by Erasmus in 1521. It was first used in English by Ben Jonson in his 1600 play Cynthia's Revels; immediately afterwards Jonson chose it as the title of his 1601 play Poetaster.
