Crosslink with Bumbu?

Is this nutmeg-forward spiced rum drink at all related to the nutmeg-forward blend of spices from Indonesia also named "bumboo" or "bumbu"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bumbu_(seasoning)

Should the two articles be linked? -grant (talk) 19:17, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

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.

The chair is used to seat babies but people need more information on it: where it was made, who made it,etc: — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.115.199.55 (talk) 18:17, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Numbers

I is stated that George W. treated 391 voters with 160 GALLONS of rum. That averages to 1.6 metric liters of rum per voter. Considering that rum at that time had about 70% alcohol content by volume, this would mean 391 corpses, not voters. Either there is a comma or some more context is missing here, but most likely the whole story is pure misinformation. 84.141.174.63 (talk) 21:03, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Washington could have given out bumbo by the gallons, not by the drink. Also, his generation had a higher tolerance for alcohol -- John Adams drank two quarts of hard cider for breakfast, for example. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 157.182.205.134 (talk) 17:02, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
