I got this email below a couple of weeks ago, and of course I had to laugh, having sailed with numerous Norwegians; the email is reproduced below...
" As you may have seen on the news, it's been very cold in Iowa, so cold in fact that Iowans have borrowed a Norwegian Icebreaker from Minnesota to unclog the Mississippi, starting over near Davenport, and working its way north.
Here is the first picture of it as it begins the hard work required to break up the ice. The first Norwegian Icebreaker heads up the Mississippi."
