  2.  @2eleven48  Yes - and that was before they dishonoured themselves. I can't fault him for not being able to see into the future. They gave him the honours....then they stabbed him in the back some years later, which shows that they had no honour in the first place. Say for instance if your wife cheated on you and you divorced her - does she get to say "You can't do that because you married me in the first place". No logic.

  4. I'll have a bloody mary, a screwdriver and a waldorf salad, please.
