Hereby it is manifest that during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called war; and such a war as is of every man against every man.

the best time to be born was probably sometime between 1960-65. All the perks of being a baby boomer without having to fight in Vietnam.

Nah, better answer for the US would be something like 1940-1943. A high school graduate in 1958 who does his two years of service in a peacetime draft is out and in the labor force in 1960 before the massive wave of people born in 1945 swamp the labor pool.

A mathematician, like a painter or poet, is a maker of patterns. If his patterns are more permanent than theirs, it is because they are made with ideas.
the best time to be born is the moment before nuclear fire scours our wretched species from this godforsaken planet

in other words, sometime around march of next year

Homer doesn't discuss the names of ships, so no. His crew are described as being Cephallenians, but that's their ethnic/regional identity and not a distinction or nickname.

On the subject of spurting, if any of you haven't yet subscribed to the British museum's youtube channel do it now, it is a goldmine.

How does that even work? Does that mean if I wear a condom during sex, the soul of the person that theoretically could have been conceived goes straight to hell?
