The Blarney Stone is a block of bluestone built into the battlements of Blarney Castle, Blarney about 8 km from Cork, Ireland. According to legend, kissing the stone endows the kisser with the gift of gab (great eloquence or skill at flattery).

    I personally could never do it, even if I believed the legend. Too many people have already kissed it. Ewwww. :S
