Wills, CarpetMan was telling me the Alamo was all about Jim Bowie and Santa Ana fighting over a sheep. Is that true?

[The Nyack Kid]

thats the way i heard it too .

Carpetman , how many major conflicts have been fought over sheep ?

[NVcurmudgeon]

If you've ever been to the Alamo, you won't be thinking about sheep, but Americans dying for liberty.

Wills - Thanks for posting that link. That's the real history of the Alamo not the stuff you see in movies.

BTW - I think about sheep everyday.
