The Light Bringer, the latvian flag is the second oldest (still used) flag in the world! Comming from 1280, the number 3 (nl) came in almost 3 centuries later than yours in 1572. We have pretty good legend of how it was made. So there was war between order and tribes, one of the chiefs got a deadly wound and he was retrieved from battle on white sheet and after that he bleed out and his son took the sheet and it was blood red on sides and white in the middle where he had lied, so he took it and put it on spear, and rided back to the battlefield, so tribesmen saw the flag and fought fearlessly and won the battle, this flag became national flag. Then he must be a cyborg to bleed in such straight lines!  |

Oh and actually this legend is coming from 11th century And this date 1280 comes from Livonian chronics, when Latgals(Latgallians) came attack order with their flag which was red, with white stripe crossing it, so it is firstly documented use, and it is known it was used before 1280, but none can give precious date, as there is very few archeological notes about that time period |

This scene is funny, but you'd think that Hitler would've seen one of his officers who he presumed is trying to get him to autograph the book (That he is presumably about to throw in the fire to burn) and been like "What are you doing? We have an entire country to occupy now and you're just standing here trying to get my autograph?!"
That being said, the quote "We're pilgrims in an unholy land" is one of my favorite movie quotes.

Lol, I remember this scene as I had saw it yesterday. .. |

Bieber did a photo shoot at a children's hospital for the media. Between shots and during break, he refused to be near the children because he didn't want to get sick.

Well Martin Luther and Martin Luther King Jr... or how about George Washington and George Washington Carver? I know a guy with a last name Newton, he could have a kid with a first name Isaac. As for the Kmart... Bieber is Bieber, he's seriously that stupid enough to go there even if he has no purpose there. The main point remain... he's never actually that generous to do something like that to any kid. |

Justin Bieber isn't even 25 yet. If he told a kid something and they grew up, he'd of had to do that before he was born. |
