"Channeling" the Canal

 Reports are that the ship that has been blocking the Suez Canal for a week is finally freed, in an operation that took far less time than experts had predicted (it was said it could take another week, at least). Of course, now they have to be sure the ship remains sea-worthy before it makes its way out of the canal.

It's also reported that, in contradiction of earlier news, that the ship went out of control not only because of weather conditions but also, at least in part, due to human error.

This leads me to an image of the captain on the bridge, yelling to the helmsman, "Port! I said port, you idiot!"
