We've all heard the expression "crossing the Rubicon" to describe a point of no return, but who was actually responsible for it?

wasn't it something to do with a battle at a river in Roman times? something like that? My Dad used to always yell it at us and I could never remember what the hell the Rubicon was...

C'mon Dreamer - Rome 49BC......

hmm seeing as it's a 'who' I shall go for one of the only Romans I know: Julius Caeser?

JC it was. He lead his troops across the Rubicon to tackle the corrupt prelates of Rome, it was forbidden to lead troops into Rome without an invite but as he whooped everyone's ass and they legged it, he didn't get punished and became emperor instead.
