If the US further pulls out of , the Indo-Pacific, the -East, , -America -- anywhere -- the vacuum created will surely be filled by the new axis of -Russia-Iran. A US pull-out is, most probably, just what they are hoping and waiting for.

Long ago, my best and I came up with what was basically a throwaway line...

"No man is an island. But some men are peninsulas." [1]

I honestly don't remember which one of us coined it, or if it was somehow a truly joint production. But I find myself thinking about it every so often, and about how it actually does describe some people (me included).

? ? I'm not sure how to classify it.

[1] Yes, that should probably be "peninsulae".

I just saw my mistake in this. For the Latin pedants out there, yes, Canada has had two national referenda on the subject.

'The word "decision" comes from roots, with de meaning "down" or "away from" and caedere meaning "to cut."

Therefore, a decision means cutting from any other possibility.

A true decision means you are committed to achieving a result and cutting yourself off from any other possibility.'

— Carole N. Hildebrand

Learning that Colombian is one that favors courage and quick-wittedness (and is not very tolerant of timidity or dullness).

Here's a saying that sums this up:

'Es mejor atajar un loco, que empujar un bobo."

(Better to steer a madman, than push a dimwit)
