As you know, Colin, I don't give a Tinker's Damn if you have the "complete trust and confidence" of the Corsican Moron or not, but I do know that you personally hold him in the highest esteem, and I am very happy to see that he returns the honor. You are a fine gentlemen, and an extremely formidable opponent. Traits which I hold in the highest honor. Congratulations, my friend. This title is very well deserved. :P :P :P

Congratulations, Colin!

Next round is on whoever you crushed at Austerlitz to get the title. Although, as I've heard it, that might be 1/2 the allied officer corps, including a fair number of their best and brightest.
