Fun Facts: Karl Kroyer, one of your countrymen successfully refloated the sheep ship Al Kuwait when it sank in Kuwait harbor threatening to contaminate the city’s water supply.

Yeah I was waiting for that. I’ve got 4356 pages of sheep jokes but I don’t think they will add materially to the discussion. One of the flock is lined up for the spit for a pre Christmas BBQ.

Take care down there.
