MedicineCabinet Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

Brickos Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 UK Prime Minister David Cameron resisted a request from Chinese officials yesterday to remove the poppy symbol that Britons wear every November in memory of their war dead during his visit to Beijing. Poppies have been Britain's symbol of remembrance since World War I, when the flowers grew on battlefields. The Royal British Legion sells paper poppies in November to raise funds for veterans in the run-up to Armistice Day on November 11. Similar poppies are on sale across Australia.

loftgroover Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 If you Yanks wore a Poppy anywhere chances are you'd be arrested straight off for opium cultivation, then spend 200 years in jail getting raped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KM4RT Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Fact: That hole in suit jacket lapels was invented by Prince Albert a couple of hundred years ago. He got a flower on his wedding day, he didn't know what to do with it, so he cut a hole in his lapel and stuck it in thurr. Then he did it to all his suits. And because he was such a cool motherfucker, everyone else started doing it to their suits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
