I am not one of those who believes that history repeats, but consider the following from Herodotus: the Oracle at Delphi told the fabulously wealthy King Croesus that if he invaded Persia he would "destroy a great empire." Croesus invaded and lost--the empire he destroyed was his own.

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland. They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

#StoneHeadSunday, anyone? This the Bryn y Môr head on display at the wonderful Oriel Môn, Anglesey. Found on the farm of the same name near Valley in the 1950s. As with many heads, it is difficult to date, & suggestions range from prehistoric to medieval. Coarse sandstone 32kg. #StandingStoneSunday
