If you want to frown you have to go to Blackfoot, Idaho. However, you can express disdain in Pocatello by saying "Oh My Heck!" But only if you are really at a loss for words. (Be prepared to support your argument.) Also, it should be noted that the words "flip" and "fetch" are curse words in Pocatello; words which are looked upon with stern disapproval. So, watch your language. I would say go around Pocatello whenever possible, but you can't. It is the cross roads of the great Northern Jello belt.

It is often said that there an old law in Chester that a Welsh person found within the city walls after dark can be "shot". The law was actually mentioned in House of Commons as recently as 6th Feb 2007 when Christine Russell (MP for Chester) said:

* I freely admit that cross-border relationships have not always been harmonious in the past. For instance, a local byelaw in Chester states that a Welsh person found within the city walls after sunset can be taken out with a crossbow.

Of course, Ms Russell was not being serious (I hope!). Despite this the Rt. Hon. Mr David Jones (Member of Parliament for Clwyd West / Aelod Seneddol dros Orllewin Clwyd) thought it wise to point out:

* "Is it not true that the Chester town hall clock tower does not have a face facing Wales because the people of Chester would not give the time of day to the Welsh?...".
You know the tradition of a husband carrying his new bride across the threshold?

This seemingly "romantic" tradition dates back to the founding of the Roman Republic. Rome was founded as a haven for criminals and brigands, and so had very few women. To solve this problem, the Romans invited their neighbors, the Sabines, to celebrate a festival. Once there, the Romans attacked the men and seized the women, each man taking a woman forcibly as a wife. Each woman had to be carried into each man's home in order to "consumate". Hence the tradition of carrying new brides across the threshold.
