Funny news from Africa.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/5009164.stm

"Kwame Nkrumah-Acheampong admits that Ghana is not a place you would associate with winter sports. Yet the man who is known as Ghana's Snow Leopard is now on a mission to identify, train and recruit the next batch of Ghanaian ski racing stars."

When you figure in that the British School here in Togo takes a group of students to Italy every year to go skiing, it doesn't sound nearly as nutty for Ghana to form a ski team. But there are those flashbacks to the Jamaican bobsled team.
