Book: After a harrowing trip to the site of its birth, the salmon spawns, and then awaits its demise...

Little BoxJam: Bup...what does "harrowing" mean?

BoxJam: Figure it out from context!

Little BoxJam: Huh?

BoxJam: See if you can figure it out by the words around it!

Little BoxJam (thinking): "harrowing" = "stupid" "site" = "stupid place" "spawn" = "do something stupid" "demise" = "stupid parents"
