"The Watermelon Man"
Date
of Creation: 1987
A tradition in the heat of the summer is to pick up a watermelon
from a roadside vendor.
Melon is the common name for any one of
numerous varieties of sweet fruits of the gourd family, that grow on two
species of trailing vines. One vine bears muskmelons, winter melons, and the
European cantaloupe. The other bears the watermelons.
Watermelons
originated in tropical Africa, and Sanskrit and early Egyptian records indicate
that they have been cultivated for more than 4000 years.
