I hope that someday you have a bedroom like Friedrich Krupp's. ;-)

What is "Friedrich Krupp's bedroom"? Couldn't find any reference to it and
must give up.

Read "The Arms of Krupp" by William Manchester. Friedrich thought that
the aroma of horse manure was good for the lungs and for health in
general, so he had his bedroom built directly over the stables, with
vents to waft the salubrious vapors directly to his nostrils.
