An ocean (from Ancient Greek Ὠκεανὸς (Okeanos); the World Ocean of classical antiquity) is a body of saline water that composes a large part of a planet's hydrosphere. In the context of Earth, it also refers to major divisions of the planet's World Ocean, such as the Atlantic Ocean. The word "sea" is often used interchangeably with "ocean", but a sea is a body of saline water (possibly a division of the World Ocean) in a more inland location.
Earth's global ocean is the largest confirmed surface ocean on all observable planets. Approximately 71% of the planet's surface (~3.6x108 km2) is covered by saline water that is customarily divided into several principal oceans and smaller seas. Because it is the principal component of Earth's hydrosphere, the world ocean is integral to all known life, forms part of the carbon cycle, and influences climate and weather patterns. The total volume is approximately 1.3 billion cubic kilometres (310 million cu mi) with an average depth of 3,790 metres (12,430 ft). It is the habitat of 230,000 species known to science, however much of the ocean's depths remain unexplored and it is estimated that over two million marine species may exist. The origin of Earth's oceans is still unknown though they are believed to have first appeared in the Hadean period and may have been the point of origin for the emergence of life.

Plot: THE BEVERAGES tells the comedic tale of a pretentious filmmaker (Monty Zuchard) as he follows a feeble two-man band (The Beverages) around Boston in hopes of exposing the dire state of today's popular music and 'art.' It begins as a how-to on what not to be or do if you strive to be a musician or artist of any kind, but quickly turns into an uncharted sea of street performances, sleazy music video tycoons, and slapstick comedy.

Plot: Steam from the ocean creates a little cloud who is eager to do good for Man. Before bidding him goodbye, the ocean warns the little white cloud that if he comes too close to the warm earth, he'll turn back into water again. Later, the cloud encounters black clouds holding lightning bolts. He hopes they'll give him advice on how to do good for Man. Being so small, he can't even provide shade to protect Man from the hot sun. But the black clouds are interested only in harming Man. They create a storm that destroys the gardens and farms and all the vegetables in them. The little cloud weeps, which fills him with water and makes him grow huge. Now, Man prays for a gentle rain so that their crops can grow again. The little cloud, with tears of joy, realizes how he can help Man at last.

And all you see is skies all painted gray
And when you look back on the notion
Yes, you see it's almost went away
And when you're acting like it just ain't right
All you see is almost gonna stay
And when you knowing that it just ain't right
