* one of my favourite quotes, often misattributed (is that a word?) to Napoleon, whom I would like to think said this sort of thing daily before breakfast- sorry, petit déjeuner! (And apologies to Just Fern, who seems to let me get away with ripping off her creations!) UPDATE: just checked and Chatgpt said this: The quote “Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action” is attributed to Ian Fleming, the creator of James Bond. It appears in his 1959 novel Goldfinger. Fleming’s version conveys the idea of interpreting repeated events as intentional rather than accidental, often in the context of espionage or conflict.
