*The nursery rhyme "Ring Around the Rosey" is a rhyme about the plague. Infected people with the plague would get red circular sores ("Ring around the rosey"). These sores would smell very badly so common folks would put flowers on their bodies somewhere (inconspicuously), so that it would cover the smell of the sores ("a pocket full of posies"). Furthermore, people who died from the plague would be burned so as to reduce the possible spread of the disease ("ashes, to ashes, we all fall down").*

LOL That is sooooo funny.

the jeep was actually named after a cartoon character in the 1940's that was on Popeye. It was a small magical creature that could go anywhere and do anything (just like the jeep). it just so happend that the GP when sounded out, sounded like "jeep".

The Great Wall of China is actually not visible from space through the naked eye, it is about as wide as US highways, which aren't visible under the same circumstances.

"GP" stands for General Puprose vehicle, which sounds like "Jeep" when phonetically slurred in pronunciation.
