Natural mosquito trap: The mosquito lands on the salt and thinks it is sugar. It gets thirsty and looks for water. But there is rum in the lid. The mosquito gets drunk, trips over the stick hits its head on the stone, and dies.

This gender madness gets worse by the day. There have been reports that thousands of men in skirts were seen at the current European football championship!

Why shouldn't boxers have sex before their fight?

Because they don't like each other.

It's about as common as guys wearing dinner jackets in the rest of Britain, in my (also limited) experience - very formal events only. Plus national pride events like football matches, obviously.

Dinner jackets are a bit fancy and we don't really do bowler hats any more, perhaps in the city. There is a Scot in our local who I have never seen in anything but a kilt, even in winter.

I read today that Scottish fans are so popular that there is a petition calling for an annual friendly match with Scotland.

In my limited experience, it seems to be a rule that at every English wedding there should be exactly one guest in a kilt.

When my family flew to Scotland (about 12 of us), for my cousin's wedding, all we men were fitted up for kilts - sporan, socks, the works...

Not to be nitpicky, but the second movie in the series, "Final Destination 2", is the important reference here.

I only remember the locations, not the order: airplane, highway, roller coaster, race track, bridge.
Was there a 6th part?
