    Ironic Deaths

    I suspect that Sophie Heathcote, already noted in the near misses 2006 may qualify as a tad ironic... Although, I suspect that as her death was not attributed as skin cancer a debate on the subject may ensue. Wonder how sales of Ki are going?

    World War I Veteran(s)

    Pardon my being a Canucklehead, but what does it mean to be given the freedom of a town? The possession of the rights and privileges of a freeman of the city; formerly often, and now occasionally, conferred on one not a resident, as a mark of honorary distinction for public services. I remember one person telling me that they were once listed as having the freedom of the City of London. When I looked up the priviliges, apparently they were permitted to lead their cattle over London Bridge I am lead to believe that in my hometown, York, a Freeman of the City is also entitled to shoot Scotsmen, dressed in kilts, with a crossbow if said Scotsman is within the City walls.
