Here's a story for you:

Back in the fall of 1492, Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue and
happened upon Cuba, which he claimed for Spain. Among the many things he
brought ashore were his Spanish horses, beautiful creatures bred for their
hardiness, endurance and courageous spirit, and with them, Columbus
established two horse farms on the island.


And if he had discovered donkeys instead of turkeys, we'd all have a
piece of ass for Thanksgiving!
Oops, wrong sailor.
