Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo. The boat sailed on the river sank.

Thoughts?

In the writing forum, it seems like very poor writing on the first sentence, as "Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo." does not contain all the components, namely a subject, a predicate including a verb. On the second, I am not sure where the river sank is located, but names of rivers are usually capitalized.
Overall, my thoughts are poor writing, but this is the writing forum, and I am sure you did your best.
