Fact, except I think in the UK a white ribbon means something different? I'd use the Phone a Friend option, but that's not the game we're playing.

The tradition in many English-speaking countries is for a bride to kiss a blacksmith on her wedding day to ensure a happy and prosperous marriage.

FACT or CRAP ?

CRAP The tradition is for a bride to kiss a chimney sweep, not a blacksmith on her wedding day to ensure a happy and prosperous marriage. This custom began in England during the reign of King George III, and is still popular today.

GOOD cuz I bet its easier 2 find a Chimney Sweep ( Chitty Chitty Bang Bang ) than a Blacksmith

Sorry mom it is Mary Poppins not Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

FACT or CRAP ?

FACT It's rare to see such attractive and subtle advertising. It is even rarer to find it on the rear end of a horse!

Singer Jim Morrison of the Doors; Jean-Francois Champollion, the first to translate Egyptian hieroglyphs; and writer Oscar Wilde are all buried in the same French cemetery.
