He intended it to transport barrels of flour.
Mountain goats grow luxurious winter coats
— more than three inches of cashmere-quality wool,
overlaid with long hollow hairs.
The hardy animals can endure winter temperatures
as low as minus 50 degrees F,
and powerful winds up to 100 miles per hour.
Americans consume more than
10 billion bowls of soup each year.

The celebration of the new year
is the oldest of all holidays.
It was first observed in ancient Babylon
about 4,000 years ago. In the years
around 2000 B.C., Babylonians celebrated the beginning
of a new year on what is now March 25,
although they themselves had no written calendar.
Sorry gang but I have to post and run.
I'm behind schedule again
and boss man had been in my office already.

Gotta go for now.
But, I'll check pings on my return.
Please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
