Rottergirl keeps diggin'

Says Paul: In the Fall of 1774 & Winter of 1775 I was one of upwards of thirty, cheifly mechanics, who formed our selves in to a Committee for the purpose of watching the Movements of the British Soldiers, and gaining every intelegence of the movements of the Tories. We held our meetings at the Green-Dragon Tavern. Hmmm... Maybe after 3 pints or seven, he did warn the Brits that Rot ain't paying the tab. The Tab.

  2. Hey, hey, hey. That's a Romanian proverb:

    Câinii latră, caravana trece.
    Translation: "The dogs bark, the caravan passes by..." (undisturbed)
    meaning: don't listen to naysayers, there's always some of them but [they] should not be taken seriously

    Where's my Rosso di Montepulciano?

  3. "old him. it was Revere, he as-
    ked if it was Paul? I told him yes He asked me if
    I was an express? I answered in the afirmative. He
    demanded what time I left Boston? I told him; and
    aded, that their troops had catched aground in passing the River,
    and that There would be five hundred Americans there
    in a short time, for I had alarmed the Country all the way up. "

    So, Paul Revere gave the British full info, as to his mission, including warning as to Americans being ready for them.....
    ..Looks like Sarah was diggin' some Truth.
