I just checked! It was Pequod, the ship, not Queequeg, the character. Still, I’m sure Jef knew what he was doing even if I didn’t, and I’m still sure that’s what he’s referencing.
Nice reference! It’s said that Starbuck’s was originally going to be called Queequeg’s, after the charcter from Moby Dick, but they decided that the name was just too odd so they switched to Starbuck’s to keep the link to Moby Dick but with a more straightforward name.
I thought that Dad was probably checking out whether he recognised the door before he gave the thumbs up. Even Dad might not be so cool if that came from their house.
He has a point, though, that would be a cool twist.
