Your admirable orator is addressing the annual conference of pescatarians, and he is saying: "Friends, barbarians, and fellow pescatarians. I come here today not to praise the mighty Neptune, but to
remind you all that we are living out our lives in sinking ships and that the day will come when our ship sinks. Henceforth we will be no more than food for the fishes, which is only fair as we were happily
feeding on their flesh while we were sailing our ships above them. Oh, and have a nice day.
