| Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung | Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung was a 1971 essay by Lester Bangs, later collected in a book of the same name (ISBN 0679720456). The essay, which talks about what would usually today be called garage rock, contains the phrase, ...punk bands started cropping up who were writing their own songs but taking the Yardbirds' sound. This is believed one of the first uses of the word punk to refer to a type of rock music. A large section of the essay is concerned with the imagined long career of the garage band The Count Five, after their hit Psychotic Reaction, In fact, the band split after one album, and their other records are entirely a product of Bangs' imagination.

| Doves dung | Bible | Various explanations have been given of the passage in (2 Kings 6:25) Bochart has labored to show that it denotes a species of cicer, "chick-pea," which he says the Arabs call usnan, and sometimes improperly "doves" or "sparrows dung." Great quantities of these are sold in Cairo to the pilgrims going to Mecca. Later authorities incline to think it the bulbous root of the Star of Bethlehem (ornithogalum, i.e. bird-milk), a common root in Palestine, and sometimes eaten. --ED. It can scarcely be believed that even in the worst horrors of a siege a substance so vile as is implied by the literal rendering should have been used for food. (references) | |
| Dove's dung | Bible | Dove's dung (2 Kings 6:25) has been generally understood literally. There are instances in history of the dung of pigeons being actually used as food during a famine. Compare also the language of Rabshakeh to the Jews (2 Kings 18:27; Isa. 36:12). This name, however, is applied by the Arabs to different vegetable substances, and there is room for the opinion of those who think that some such substance is here referred to, as, e.g., the seeds of a kind of millet, or a very inferior kind of pulse, or the root of the ornithogalum, i.e., bird-milk, the star-of-Bethlehem.

| Doves' Dung | Literature | 1: In 2 Kings vi. 25, during the siege of Samaria, "there was a great famine... and... an ass's head was sold for fourscore pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a cab of dove's dung [hariyonim ] for five pieces of silver." This "hariyonim" was a plant called chickpea, a common article of food still sold to pilgrims on their way to Mecca. 2: "In Damascus there are many tradesmen whose sole occupation is preparing [hariyonim] for sale. They have always been esteemed as provision meet for a lengthy journey, and are a necessary part of the outfit of all who travel in the remote parts of Syria and Asia Minor."- Bible Flowers, p. 71.
