I want this to be information one just usually doesn’t hear. If you have I would like to know if you haven’t all the better you’ve learned something today. With that being said here is the information for you to consider today.
Queen Mary 1 of England and Ireland 1516-1558) was a Catholic who had Protestants tortured and killed. Her actions inspired the nickname Bloody Mary, which in turn inspired the cocktail. I guess that’s why it’s red. The last one for today is: in 1975 and 1976, two brothers were killed. The first was riding a motorcycle when he was struck and killed by a taxi. Approximately one year later the brother was riding the same motorcycle when he was struck and killed. No big deal right? However the second brother was killed after being struck by the same taxi and the same driver. Even stranger the taxi had the same passenger on the second strike as he did on the first. That should be a record for sure.
