Why does this thing always go to a new page as soon as I ask a new question??

The next question (I tried to make this one a bit harder):

There is a JOURNEY album. (BTW I like it a lot

) On that JOURNEY album there is a song I think of and refer to. That song has lyrics that have absolutely nothing to do with the subject of my question, the Roman general, and the events he set in motion by doing what he did that the title of the song at least calls into mind.

Who was the Roman military leader, and what did he do that set momentous events into motion--after he did it, that the JOURNEY song title calls to mind?

For bonus points......redeemable at an *Iranian nuclear materials enrichment facility near you*.......what is the name of, both, the JOURNEY album and the song title?

KISS

Whaaaaat? Now I have to read your mind and guess some random Roman General and a song that reminds you of this General?

To Black Rider and Exo......both of you......good reasoning dudes.

I like to see the *wheels inside yer' brains* turning and hear the *grinding of the mental gears* as both of you say your answers and provide reasoning for them.

And yeah Exo.....yeah you were joking (I think

), but that was an amusing answer. Twisted Evil

Black Rider.....you're wrong in some ways, correct in others, in any event......closer than you may think to being 100% correct. Twisted Evil

Check the song titles again......do a little bit more thinking......and voila!! cheers

Gosh......this was still too easy. scratch

It is easier than you make it out to be. Twisted Evil

When you SEE the song title it should remind you, jog your memory, so to speak......because the song title JOURNEY decided upon is a direct reference between this Roman general and the events he started in motion.....when he crossed *it*, with his army. Twisted Evil

Points:

1.

Quote:

Open Arms?

You were kidding......right?? Question

You have got to be kidding. Neutral

2. O.K. i'll get specific about the "correct" and "wrong" part. Neutral

Quote:

Julius Caeser. Started the transformation of Rome being a Republic into an Empire.

The person is corrrect, and for what it matters.......you are also correct about what process he actually began by crossing this barrier, or geographic *line* that was utterly sacred to the Romans. When Caesar crossed the barrier, or geographic *line* that was sacred to the Romans, he started the Roman Civil Wars that ended with him being the only man *left standing*, so to speak.

Quote:

Album: Frontiers

Correct. I love that album.

Quote:

Song: Chain Reaction

Wrong.

3. From my last post:

Quote:

When you SEE the song title it should remind you, jog your memory, so to speak......because the song title JOURNEY decided upon is a direct reference between this Roman general and the events he started in motion.....when he crossed *it*, with his army. Twisted Evil

When Caesar crossed *it*, with his army, he took his legion (later joined by other legions, but Caesar only had one legion at the actual crossing of *it*) over the sacred *line* that Roman law stated it was unlawful for a military commander to take armies from the provinces into Italy over......*it*.

4. *It* = song title from Frontiers album. It's right there dude. scratch

I've begun to think that all he's really trying to do is throw us off the scent with all this "Caesar and a Journey album" stuff.

He's just afraid to come out and say he's actually got a thing for Marc Anthony..........

I don't know any Journey song like that, but I'm pretty sure you're
referring to "Crossing the Rubicon", which was a river that was a
boundry line that military were not supposed to cross.

Correct. The River Rubicon was just a little south of Ravenna. It was forbidden (until Caesar did it Razz

) to bring provincial armies south of the Rubicon and into Italy.

Exo then said:

Yep.

Give that man a prize. cheers

An *All You Can Drink* extravaganza!!

You should get it. It's one of the *good* Razz

JOURNEY albums. Just kidding......most of them are good IMO.

But yeah......you should get it. That song Rubicon rocks. Twisted Evil

New question to follow soon. scratch
