    So I took a piece of 81/2 X 11 paper told a guy if I stood on one edge and he stepped on the other edge of the paper , he couldn’t hit me. $10 bet. I put the paper down in a doorway. and closed the screen door …Long story short, I lost the bet and and had to buy a new screen door too.

    Sometimes a line in the sand is just a line. It also might lead to war with much misery and murder if believed or if NOT believed.

    Oh dear heaven!!! Please pay attention: There is “drawing a line”, which indicates a point which will not be crossed without a consequence. Then there is “drawing a line in the sand”, which means a pointless statement, sand being what it is, ever moving and shifting. Get it?? I don’t know who started this whole ‘line in the sand’ thing with regard to the current administration’s foreign policy but if it was supposed to mean that the President was issuing an ultimatum, IT IS STUPID AND MEANINGLESS. THEY GOT IT WRONG, OK????

    @Dogday88" if it was supposed to mean that the President was issuing an ultimatum, IT IS STUPID AND MEANINGLESS. THEY GOT IT WRONG, OK????".My president is NOT stupid, he just issued an open-ended threat. He didn’t call it a line in the sand, but it is sandy and was called a line and implied a response:.“We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized,”

    _ “That would change my calculus. That would change my equation.”_.“It was also unclear what the consequences of crossing that “red line” would be.” (From ABC News).No matter why he said it, he is not stupid enough to follow through.

    Dogday88:

    Oh, I don’t really know, but I’d bet “Drawing a line” is an abbreviated form of “Drawing a line in the sand”, considering the gesture has a long history that EASILY predates the expression.

    Heck, I thought it started with William Travis at the Alamo (though, in that instance, the gesture meant “Who’s with me?” rather than “Don’t violate my limit, mister!” But nope…It says somewhere in the Bible that Jesus drew a line in the sand, too.____________________________

    Others:

    It got a sincere chuckle out of me. “I drew a line in the sand.” You’d expect it to be a firm affirmation of some FIRM decision…Drama is fixin’ to unfold, er sumthin’. But what do we get, instead? Nuthin’. So what’s funny about it to me? I dunno. Either the surprise factor, or the feebleness of his gesture, or his ignorance of the meaning of the gesture…Yeah. I think that’s it… The ignorance.___________________________________

    HEY EVERYBODY:

    I just sent a suggestion to the B.C. authors that they put together a paperback book or two or thr…whatever (though I joked about a hardcover) that would be a complete compilation of “Wiley’s Dictionary.”

    Do y’all like that idea? … Good! Tell ‘em so! And if they say they don’t wanna, we’ll tell them we won’t read anymore B.C. ‘till they do!! … No, forget that. I won’t stop reading! (I’ve been a fan since I was a kid, and that was before “bc” had a meaning, lol… Well, we’ll tell them that… uhm… Hmm. We’ll think of something. ;)

    WILEY’S DICTIONARY: A necessity for every library.

    I thought that was what Col. Travis had his sickbed moved across.
