Diogenese -- who was looking for an honest man and the foremost Cynic of his time -- once was taken as a slave by a pirate. The pirate, wanting to sell Diongenese for some cash, needed to know Diogenese' trade. When asked, Diognese replied, "I am a governor. Sell me to a person who needs a master."

PS -- I am assuming that if you publish these trivai bits and attribute them to the FR while making a profit, you will make a donation of some small sort to Jim Robinson. God Bless him and you!

Well I DO contribute to FR from time to time, although times have been tough for me lately. But no, I intend to post them without any purpose of making money off them. I just hope people email them around with "just enough" bits of conservative, patriotic and other pro-liberty facts and figures mixed in to hopefully nudge the mission along.

I had no idea Diogenese was Italian.
