A jet-lagged albatross with a beard and scuba gear?

Getting closer. Much closer.

Anyone ever tell you you're a sadist?

I was thinking Exocoetidae - flying fish, but couldn't find the classical link, but I've very weak on the classics.

I also have a literal bent, so when I said closer I meant literally rather than metaphorically.

I am an ocean creature.

Goddamnit! Nautilus!!!!

Yes, I knew that was too big a clue but a quick game is a good game.

A jet propelled mollusc that lives in the sea.

Ok, gotta hit the shops, so here's something (a bity mediocre) to chew on.

I'm wet through all of the time,
The answer to every question.
I combine with things just fine,
I help with your digestion.
It's the answer to everyone's questions,
It's the chemists favourite tool.
I wait to hear your suggestions,
So you can sound like a fool!

Back inna bit, or someone else throw one in if anything better?

Bile.
