Harvest Moon Trivia, Notice anything? Options

[Hasfusel]

This thread is for if you notice anything interesting, for example; references to real world people and events, hidden items, secret details, links between games, etc.
For instance, Mayor Thomas is the only character other than the main character in HM:DS to possess a Teleport Necklace. If you notice, he has a blue stone on a chain round his neck remeniscient of the purple stone available at the Sprite Tree. Other characters in DS and FoMT comment on the fact that he just pops out of nowhere to appear behind you, which they find quite disturbing, and in the DS game you never see him walking through town - he just turns up where he wants to be without travelling to that particular place, such as the Manor and your farm.
Also, the game MFoMT contains three Secret Heart bachelors. Easiest to marry out of these is Won the Travelling Salesman. He turns out to be rather unpleasant as a husband, often thinking about money instead of you. He's also the only bachelor who, during the wedding ceremony, will wait for you to kiss him rather than the other way round. Second is the Gourmet, rumoured to be the uncle of Pierre from IoH. By giving him good food everytime you see him, you can raise his (invisible) heart level and eventually marry him. Third up is the magical Kappa, although it's mystifying why anybody would want to marry him.
If you've noticed anything yourself, post here. This should be interesting. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cow.gif)
