History is like that....very chancy

She comes majestic with her swelling sails,

The gallant Ship: along her watery way,

Homeward she drives before the favouring gales;

Now flirting at their length the streamers play,

And now they ripple with the ruffling breeze.

- Robert Southey

My inner voice sometimes has an accent!

My wont? A delicious rip in time...

"It would be as though he were in a ship of stone, with masts of steel, sails of lead, ropes of iron, the devil at the helm, the wrath of God for a breeze, and hell for his destination"

Hah! I love it!

Sorry, I be Italian, and proud. :huh:

You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you. But if you're a good navigator, a least you'll know where you were when you died.......From The Ship Killer by Justin Scott.
