Did you know?
I just found out that the United States Army has changed their Army color green, to blue. Did you ever come across something in your own life that made you go Hmmmmmm?, where you thought it was quite interesting, whether it was something that changed or something that was added, etc?

Re: Did you know?
Funny you should mention something like that jd, a boyfriend I had years ago, his Mother's maiden name was the same as my Grandfather's Mother's maiden name, and both of them originated and lived in Ohio, and not of the same family either.

Re: Did you know?
my father and i got really into researching our family history about 5 years ago and we found a new name we hadn't seen before so we tried to find the death certificate to verify his death etc and it said that he was buried here in Aberdeen even tho that side of my family were from Cornwall in England.
My father and I then tried to find the grave stone to see if this was true, we spent 3 hours patrolling the cemetery only to find nothing, it then started getting dark and my father decided we'd call it a day.
On heading back to the car a guy stopped us and said that "the one you're looking for is on the second last row, follow me" we followed him to the EXACT spot on the second last row where my great x5 grandfather lay. His name emblazoned across the head stone.
My father and I looked at each other in shock and turned to the man who led us there and he just smiled and left.
It was pitch black before either myself or my dad moved or spoke.
That's the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me.

That's freaky, it gets you thinking, could it be so and so, a ghost or something, I'd probably would have fainted, never let alone spoke or moved. Definitely something to go Hmmmmm about!
