If I hadn’t been busy at MCRD San Diego at the time, I’d have sailed down and made them an offer. :-)

That’s the first time I’ve ever been aware of that entire quote, thank you!

Little known fact - There is only one statue of the Iron Lady here in the US. It is beautifully sculptured piece in the center courtyard of Hillsdale College. Sadly, my son tells me she is the 4th hole in “wiffle-ball statue golf”. Baah, kids!

No, it isn’t. They have no claim, in fact YOUR COUNTRY has more of a claim on the islands!.

I don’t know, I’ve just heard the first line of it almost all my life. I’m going to google it. Sounds like some Roman general or someone like that.

All I can find for attribution is Julius Caesar. Could be, he said a lot of pithy things.

Yes, it is. I’d always heard the first line, never the rest of it.

Don't even bother to weigh anchor to do it.
