Not a very good likeness, to me it looks more like the late Jerry Orbach.

We are. No earthquakes in several days. I was getting tired of all the dang quakes. It messed up my equilibrium. I couldn’t tell if we were having aftershocks, or if it was just vertigo. 😁

Earthquakes? Where?

I KNOW you live overseas, even with my damaged memory :)

I’m QUITE SURE it’s the Philippines.

Now I’ll die of embarrassment if I’m wrong!

A Great Man who spoke one of the most historical and great words at that wall.

And they don’t want his statue.

“ Maybe they would rather have the wall and guard towers back, along with the Stasi.”

Maybe that’s what the ingrates deserve.

Wow. I vaguely remember reading about this.

Was Mexico on a par with us to actually take over some states?

And I didn’t know Japan was an ally during WWI

Actually Maximilian was Austrian (the younger brother of Kaiser Franz Joseph).

Or they could counter the Reagan statue by putting up one of Nikita Khrushchev.

When the Zimmerman telegram surfaced the USA was made aware of German attempt to suborn the Mexican Govt during WWI. Germany promised a return of southern states to Mexico in return for their support. After than neither nation was trusted. Same situation exists today.
