Is that the right order?

However, he wasn't much count in the breeding shed and was sold by Calumet after a few years at stud, as I recall. Never had much of an impact on the breed.

I like: Vidi, Vici, Veni Originally Posted by discreetgent

Veni, Vidi, Vici, ("I came, I saw, I conquered" - the traditional order for Caesar's famous words - but I do understand DG's intent ). Phonetically, this quote should be pronounced “Weni, Widi, Wici,” because in Latin the "V" is enunciated as a "W". In my younger, college days, I did not know this. The result was that I mispronounced these words for some time. On one occasion, I had a young lady tell me she didn’t know about the “Veni” or the “Vici,” but she did know about VD.
