Second...I think the kissing of the lips and slipping a flower into the top hat is a lovely and romantic legend, along the lines of peeling an apple then dropping the long peel into a bowl of water where it will allegedly form the initial of your true love's name. I can picture a lot of giggling young Frenchwomen slipping into the cemetary, scaring each other with the incredible daring of it all, then kissing and bestowing. It's a shame to deny them this little outing.
Third...what the heck kind of wuss-ass stone did they make that statue out of if it can't stand up to some rubbing? Or are there just that damned many French that are into stone statue fucking?
Unless that's some kind of fence, the stone fuckers will just scale the damned thing.
But, in spite of it all, total kudos to whomever had the effigy built. The poor guy died in a duel and never got his wedding night. Damn.
