Description
Funny thing about Port, everyone else considers black roosters extremely unlucky, but he's the only one (that I know) that considers them lucky. Just about every portuguese home has a statue of one to bring good luck XDThe reason he likes them (besides his love for everything gallinaceous) is because a dead rooster saved a man from being hanged [link]
This was partially based on a story told me on how a portuguese tried to offer a Barcelos Rooster to an american

I really start to love portugal X3 I should go on a little research crusade when I'm visiting our library this afternoon. (*just realised I don't know enough about port*)
Good thing its a black rooster and not a black swan. this would have freaked Ivan out! XD Because black swans are connected to witches and there is even a fairy tale where a witch uses black swans to steal children away.
On another note, I bet he will have found a nice place for this black rooster between his other wood-art. he has a fable for handpainted details and flowers on things. [link]

Woohoo, he's getting another fan XD
I'd love to see what you find out *outside views of him are very informative* ^^
That just shows how little I know about Russia. Sadly he and Port live so far apart there's not much information to go around T_T

I guess Ivan won't be scared at all even if he's told black roosters bring bad luck D: I don't know why.

I bet he got that from Iggy XD
Oh? What's wrong with saying that?

hallucinajenny In reply to Birvan [2010-03-03 22:12:04 +0000 UTC]
haha he stole a lot of stuff from Iggy
"Candyman" and "Bloody Mary" are stupid urban legends.
"Legend has it that if you stand in front of a mirror in a darkened room and chant 'Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary,' a terrifying ghost will appear." basically "Candyman" is exactly the same, except you say Candyman instead.
they scared the crap out of her.

A minha cara partiu-se ao meio quando vi as expressΓ΅es do Iggy e do Al. Foi tΓ£o lindo~
Bem, pelo menos o RΓΊssia nΓ£o vai ficar todo lixado com a prenda; JΓ‘ pensaste no que Inglaterra pensou quando o seu melhor dos seus (e provavelmente um dos ΓΊnicos) amigos lhe oferece um atentado numa caixa? xD
