   Another random roundup, as I clean my desk here and look for my "oyster
crackers" and figure out if estimated taxes are due December 16th or Janaury
15th.

MAN/DADDY ROCK ME (ROCK & ROLL)

   The November 2002 COMMENTS ON ETYMOLOGY was "MATERIAL FOR THE STUDY OF
_ROCK AND ROLL_."  There is the Trixie Smith song, "My Man Rocks Me (With One
Steady Roll)," which I think is 1922 or 1923.
   Of possible interest for an earlier (1919) sexual "rock" use is this, in
the NYPL and available digitally:

BRANDY

JOURNAL OR MEMORABLE DESCRIPTION OF THE EAST INDIAN VOYAGE OF WILLIAM
YSBRANTZ BONTEKOE OF HOORN, COMPREHENDING MANY WONDERFUL AND PERILOUS
HAPPENINGS EXPERIENCED THEREIN;
BEGUN ON THE 18th OF DECEMBER 1618, AND  COMPLETED ON THE 16th NOVEMBER 1625
1646 (Dutch--ed.)
New York: Robert M. McBride & Company
1929

Pg. 37:  Thereby the brandy was set afire and flamed up out of the cask, the
heads of the vask burst and the burning brandy ran down into the ship where
the smith's coals lay.

Pg. 112:  ...a steady wind blows from half year to half year that is called
Monsoon...

(The "brandy" is of possible interest for the Dutch sources of the word, but
the 1646 Dutch and 1929 English dates are too late for an antedate that
"1618" would be--ed.)

JALAPENO

   I'm going mad.  I even bought the book JALAPENO MADNESS (2001), but it was
no help at all, just a listing of web sites already seen.
   "Jalapeno" was NOT in this book:  FWIW, I'll show the MEXICO's agriculture
appendix, minus the botanical names.


THE REPUBLIC OF MEXICO
ITS AGRICULTURE, COMMERCE & INDUSTRIES
compiled and edited by Hermann Schnitzler
New York: Nicholas L. Brown
1924

Pg. 133 (QUERATARO):  Chile, another common products, yields 4,800 tons a
year, being sold partly in the shape of "chile verde" (green chili), partly
simply dried or baked in the sun, and some of it preserved in vinegar.  The
various species of chile are grown, viz.: "chile bolita" (capsicum
cordiforme), common chile (capsicum annum), "chile guajilla" (capsicum
longum), and "chile piquin" (capsicum annum cerasiforme).  The variety valled
"guajilla" also "tornachile" is the one that is generally preserved in
vinegar.
