A Formal Thank You
...
One of the twenty five organizations that are part of the Oiled Wildlife Response Network, and who participated in rehabilitating oiled birds after the Cosco Busan spill is Sea World in San Diego.
Sea World is owned by Anheuser Busch.
There is a huge Anheuser Busch brewing plant just down the road from the International Bird Rescue Research Center, which is where they hosted the volunteer appreciation event that I attended today.
Sea World even flew up some of their "Animal Ambassadors." In fact, they sent the same species of penguin that IBRRC is helping to save at an oil spill in Argentina, right now. (Do click on this last link! The video of diminutive penguins being released into the wild is astonishingly adorable.)
I was telling Robb about all this, and our conversation went along these lines:
"They sent a penguin to a party?!? Wasn't he over dressed?"
Silence.
"He must have been so embarrassed."
Silence.
"I'm sorry, what were you trying to tell me?"
Laughter. "Nothing. I have nothing to add to this conversation."

Good to see you!
Did you guys drink beer from a competing brewery? Does Anheiser Busch have an opening for Robb as a beer mime? When I drink too much I do a pretty good imitation of a drunk mime falling down.
