Trivia 1
1968! What a year, youse guys! Lotsa social movements goinâ onânot just in France, but all over!
Like, thatâs the year this picture got taken in what city?
Trivia 2
Ya know what was another excitinâ year aâ revolutions? 1848! That year had all SORTS aâ stuff goinâ on!
I happened to be hanginâ out in the Duchy aâ Modena at the time. The Duchy definitely had a bit aâ unrest in 1848âI think the Duke maybe got ousted for a bit? But it wasnât âtil Italian unification a decade or two later that the Duchy really went kaput, yâknow?
Anyways, the main reason I was in Modena at the time is I was learninâ âbout how they make what foodstuff? They make it outta grape mustâanâ if ya get yer hands on the traditional stuff (as per official European Union designation, itâs gotta come from either Modena or Reggio Emilia) I highly suggest ya donât waste it by sloppinâ it on just any olâ average house salad.
Oh, anâ if ya donât mind, Iâd like yer answer here to be sorta specific! Two wordâsâll suffice.
OK then
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
