Richard III

Hi everyone! Greetings from Russia!

We're having a lovely time here, although it's MUCH colder than Honduras!! :)

I wanted to take this opportunity to point out something really cool, I'm sure you've seen it in the news:

They found Richard III!

Don't know who Richard III was? Read this. Or this. Or this!

Ok, I know most of you are not really going to read them, so here are the most important things you need to know:
   -supposedly he had his nephews killed (smothered with pillows) to make himself King of England
   -he was killed in battle and his crown was picked up by Henry VII...father of Henry VIII
   -his body was recently found in a parking lot

Kind of cool, right?!

OK fine, just look at these funny memes:
