So how does a colorblind person know which flag is of Chad and the other of Romania? As for Tut’s undies, they’ve probably not been laundered in centuries now. It must be also neat to have U.S. Presidential M&M’s.

Since my real name is Marble Mouth, the Pres has me put my initials on each candy. He just signs the box to authenticate my contribution to such an important job.

Actually, the signature is a reproduction that is printed on each of the small boxes. I have one each from Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. The presidents may actually sign boxes for some dignitaries, but mostly anyone who flied on AF1 gets a box. Or, as in my case, I toured the aircraft as I knew some of the crew during that time frame, and was given a couple of boxes.

It’s probably better known that Holland’s and Luxembourg’s flags are identical except for a lighter shade of blue for Luxembourg’s flag. The red and white bands on the two flags match.
