Color is important, we all know that. No matter if it's our walls, our clothing, our jewelry or even our hair color. Did you know, however, that color can be a matter of life or death?
Everyone who wants to cross the Bridge of Death has to answer five questions - three questions! - erm, three questions (I can tell some of you already know where this is going).
First is Lancelot. The bridgekeeper asks him his name, his quest and his favorite color (blue, by the way). No problem. Sir Robin makes a mistake when he thinks he is going to get the same questions, but he fails at the third question and there he goes, right into the Gorge of Eternal Peril. Seriously, would YOU have know the capital of Assyria? Would you?
Next is Sir Galahad.
Bridgekeeper: Stop! What is your name?
Sir Galahad: Sir Galahad of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What is your quest?
Sir Galahad: To seek the Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What is your favorite color?
Sir Galahad: Blue! No, yel........... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Ouch.
You better start thinking about your own favorite color. Who knows when you will get to the Bridge of Death? ;-)
