Wow. Lowney's pics are the best thing to come out of the RNC -- better even than Zell Miller's head-imploding histrionics. Zell Miller. I think we have a new definition for "hissy fit".

Regarding the guy at the airport...quel cochon! I love that you translated it for your parents and had a good laugh. I think I told you the story of my friend (bilingual Parisienne, but living here...the woman you spoke to at my bday party) who was reading a book in English next to two French people in a café. They went on and on: "Look at that vulgar American with the big fake breasts." She let them continue for a while, then turned to them, and in perfect Parisian French, said: "Actually, I'm Parisienne, and they're real." The couple paid very fast and ran out of the café!

Didn't matter anyway. Who are the French to dish out any imperative, moral, ethical, or in matters of taste?
If she hadn't been French, she should have brought up the renowned facination that Parisian men have with 12 year old girls.
Vichy France was considered so vulgar, the allies wouldn't even have dialog with it.
Keeping true to form, they kiss the hiney of those that would hold their citizens hostage and cut off their heads for Al Jareeza cameras.
Any time a frenchman tries to cut an attitude, tell those Paris slop pigs to wipe their own shit off their nose before commenting on matter of propriety.

Thanks Amy and Rodger! And Fedup, don't let the liquor do all the talking. You've got to be smarter when sober!

Fedup -- You left out Jerry Lewis, and how all those French people just stink! (Although I guess the charming "slop pigs" bit covered that well.)

You're right, Fed Up, how dare those Vichy swine whose culture is so much older than that of the United States, and whose said culture has contributed so much to our own, dare to have their own opinion when it comes to world affairs? Why, if it wasn't for the long history of the French Jesuits in Vietnam we might never have had to go there in the first place. Right? You just demonstrated in a public forum that you have the cranial capacity of a cantaloupe. Congratulations! You win! Kiss my ass to collect your prize.

No pages were found containing "Beslan".

Ah, yes, the French are culpable for Putin's screw-ups too, huh, Ripper?

Emanuelle, speaking of getting ripped, wasn't it the French who cried when we refused to buy their rancid wine?
Sorry, but aside from our taking offense regarding your heinous goose-stepping with Islamist fundamentalists, many Americans don't enjoy the taste of wine drawn from grapes that sprouted from the soil and body liquor of your Napolean dead.

And Roger, you have to be off your rocker regarding "French Culture." You most likely, like the French, you're confusing it with German culture when it suits your purposes.

To Emmanuelle, perhaps your country's sordid past with the Nazi's, and Jerry Lewis, stick to you like fleas because, quite frankly, the French have never learned appropriate world behavior, and perhaps never will.

The Japanese don't get harassed about their past atrocities because they have rehabilitated themselves, while the French are still, to this very day, either at our feet or at our throat.

Fed Up: Gauguin, Victor Hugo .... need I go on? And you can bet your bottom dollar that the American warlords planning our strategies on the battlefields of Afghanistan and Iraq and beyond (that would include Iran in the near future) are leafing through their Napoleonic war play books. You are nowhere near possessive of the brain wattage to discuss this intelligently because you are arriving at your arguments from a pathetic, robotic GW Bush "They're either with us or against us" mentality. Go replace the worn-out American flag suspended from your car radio antenna since 9/11, listen to some Toby Keith, and leave Emmanuelle the fuck alone, 'kay?

Gauguin... Victor Hugo... the french captains of invention and industry.
The fact is, the Germans and the British had far more influence on our culture and economy than the french could in their most sopping wet dreams.

You know it. I know it. The world knows it.
So give up your limp-wristed defense before you embarrass yourself further.

It's no surprise that you would use the misnomer "american warlords" since it appeals to your faggy nature, just as the French culture must.

Most Frenchmen always talk a lot of rhetoric and outright lies until it's time to put on a helmet and pick up a gun. Then they run like the most egregious tribe of nattering nancy boys in the western hemisphere.

Admittedly, the French once had a grand tradition of military success, but things changed for the worse.

If you know your French history, you know that since the men of France invented blowjobs towards the end of the 19th century,, the French women began to object to being hit in the head by their large french balls, so the men conceded to cut them off at birth, satisfying the women's complaints.

Alas, it turned into a double-edged sword for the women, since while the ball removal not only eliminated the bruises on their faces, as well as tending to make the men want to do housework and sit around playing jazz, it also made them want to fuck preteen girls.

This is why young french girls try to grow their arm hair as soon as possible, and not bathe. They are simply trying to keep the scores of Roman Polanski's from invading the between area of their preteen knees.

Truth to tell, the French gave the victory to the Germans in WWII because they didn't want to fight past 3 o'clock in the afternoon, since that's when school let the girls out.

So we can all see the problem of French culture and why it enjoys the low status it does in our world today, as well as why you should shut up and go chase a lost red balloon, or sit in a park with your parasol while some unknown french genius paints your blurry likeness before he's put into an asylum.

Wow. What can I say? Your seething hatred of France and all things French leaves me breathless. Put the goddamn bottle down. You're an articulate writer, yet the decoration of your diatribe with phrases like "faggy nature" and "limp wristed defense" discolors the active brain cells you are tapping to continue your screed.

By the way, I was once acquainted with Roman Polanski. Go have fun with that bit of trivia.

I assume that's not French wine you're drinking, Fed.

Wow, Rodger, I owe you a drink next time -a glass of Beaujolais of your choice at least. I didn't know you liked my native country enough to take its defense on such a nice sunny day, when we should all be eating ice cream and enjoying the beach.

But Fedup, I'm kinda fedup with your cowardly, anonymous rants. If you decide to shit on someone's cyber front porch, do it like a man, not a rat, and introduce yourself first.

You're banned, adieu. I'll keep your previous posts though: they're quite revealing.

Emm, on this sunny day when we should all be eating ice cream and enjoying the beach I find myself knee deep in financial quarterlies for a trade magazine piece that was commissioned from me, so naturally I'm just grumpy enough to engage Fed Up in his xenophobic rants. Hope you're having a better one.

Do you have anything to say about the guilty at Beslan, Rodger? What's the roof your old school's gymnasium made of? Do you wonder how it would have felt falling on you partched head so long ago.

Hey, Ripper. are you looking for Emmanuelle to banish you to the cornfield with Fed Up? What happened at Beslan is tragic beyond words but I fail to see how this has anything to do with our discussion about FU's xenophobic hatred of the French. Oh wait ... I see ... somehow France's unwillingness to back Bush's invasion of Iraq enabled the Chechen terrorists, huh? Maybe they're plotting their next move in the basement of the Louvre. Please. Get .... a ... life.

Or make an argument worth debate.

And it's spelled p-a-r-c-h-e-d

Where do they plot?

"PARIS COLLOQUIUM ON CHECHNYA ANGERS KREMLIN.

A colloquium entitled "Chechnya between Russia and Europe" was held in Paris last weekend. Among those who attended was the press attache of Chechen rebel leader Aslan Maskhadov"
http://www.jamestown.org/publications_details.php?volume_id=25&issue_id=2227&article_id=19273

"More testimony from the captured terrorist. The group was organized by "Polkovnik" (Colonel), who said that Basayev and Maskhadov ordered a school to be taken hostage."
http://www.utro.ru/articles/2004/09/07/348167.shtml

Does Paris have blood on its teeth? If I get a life will you help me and mine get water? Or will you blame us for our deaths?

This is not an original thought -but reading Fedup and his subtle friends I'm reminded that to a hater, everything is a justification for his hatred. Each little snippet of reality is absorbed and brought to buttress the view he is invested in. Its not a complex psychological phenomenon. It applies to love as well as hatred. Anyways here's another travel anecdote that brings Americans and French together - I was standing on a NY train platform next to a group of French college kids (boys and girls) this weekend waiting for a train out to Long Island for the holiday weekend. In typical French fashion the group was exhibiting this easygoing, jocular, communal esprit de camaraderie which I remember so vividly from my own upbringing in France (not that long ago, really...) trading jokes and humming songs . There was a group of 4 American kids nearby and their guarded, jaded attitude showed that they didn't know what to make of this cheesy display. Anyways to make a long story short, the French kids eventually got the Americans to join in and sing Lennon and McCartney tunes (Gainsbourg proved a little too challenging)> The good humor was contagious and everyone standing around on the platform was infected. It was a great start to the weekend.

When/if, god forbid, the french experience what the kids in NY went through on and after 9/11, they might take sides with the "jaded" also.
Let's see if the French can take a mighty kick in the proverbial nuts, and keep singing "I wanna hold your hand."

I'd like to trust Robert enough to hold his hand in a crisis. But after reading a Muslim Masscre reduced to "Putin's screw-ups" by him I'd like to check under his floorboards first.

The terrorists are never as dangerous as the traitors who want to be working in your child's gymnasium right now. Which floorboard is the bullet with your child's name on it under?

What songs would you sing in this gym, Phil?

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/040907/481/mosb80409072023&e=1&ncid=

I love blogs for stories like the ones Amy and Philippe share! Not trying to convert anyone here and make them like France. I understand how people can be annoyed with France, but being so hateful? It escapes me.

Critics are welcome, as always, but there are enough anonymous rants as it is on blogs. I feel bad for those hateful critics who have nothing better to do than obsessing over a small country on the other side of the planet. It happens to be my home country, and I'm the first to be very critical of it. Rodger is a much better France defender! By the way, R. how did it go with the trade mag? Those things need to be shared among other freelancers and they can help each other act on problems. (I created a French freelancers group, Spartacus, for this purpose. We went on strike twice and obtained raises and benefits. I know, very French)

Just read this very interesting piece from the Spiegel translated in English "No Blood on our headscarves" about how the kidnapping of Christian and George has "triggered a remarkable solidarity between Muslims and non-Muslims."

OK, didn't fly to Florida obviously but on deadline. Have a good evening, fellow Angelenos.

Anonymity isn't the point. There's plenty of idiots who proudly post their name, so what?
Why in posting your name a sign of courage? So that I can face whatever internet riff raff shows up at my door?
You, Emmanuelle, show little courage posting your name because you don't post anything contraversial.
"France isn't perfect, but I like it."
Wow, Emmanuelle. You got guts.
The point should be if the statements are logical and true, or not.
It shouldn't be about if it makes Emmanuelle nervous because she's never examinded her life enough to know that she's a sheep, and desperately wants to avoid it.
Otherwise, Emmanuelle, you should rename your blog "I'm afraid!"
At least you'd be honest for once.
The fact that you're eliminating posters you disagree with is absolutely pathetic.

Thanks for sharing "Oh Please". So if I follow you, people could as well post their anonymous comments under their real names, since it doesn't matter that much. Indeed, I prefer when people speak their minds without a mask on.

Call me whatever you want. But I can't let insult others who are commenting. I really disliked Fedup's (Oh please's?) last post about another reader's alleged pedophilia. Sorry, but this is sick and I killed it and I don't see why I should let this poop pile up on my own site. You'll notice than any other angry comments remain.

I totally agree with you on one thing: unlike other bloggers out there, I'm not a very opinionated person and, indeed, I really don't think my opinion matters. I have some very strong ideas on a few topics, and I keep my politics for myself because, well, who cares. I'm shaping my opinion as I'm getting informed. See, I'm still learning about the 35-hour work week law in France. This is something I'm spontaneously strongly against, yet the utopian in me who observes overworked, pressured Americans all day, tells me that there's something really interesting about aiming at humans working less and sharing the workload and enjoying more free time. Also, I'm still trying to understand what an American Libertarian is. I'm no intellectual. This is taking a while, and I'm enjoying learning, asking Libertarians what their ideal is in terms of schooling and health care in the society of their dreams. I guess that's why I'm a journalist: I love to observe and talk to the people who have ideas, unlike me.

So call me a sheep if you want. I'm also "a soul in progress who doesn't pretend to have a clue." I tend to think that it's a quality to be flexible and to reexamine one's position as information surface. Still, I'm glad that you seem much more comfortable with yourself, OhPlease. It must feel good.

ohplease -- The site is called "Emmanuelle.net," not "hey anonymous cowardly people, let's throw schoolyard insults at French people we don't know and have never met." You are precisely the reason why enabling weblog comments is an increasingly pointless and time-consuming exercise. My wife's a journalist who notices a thing or two & writes about them on her personal website; it takes a real piece of shit to show up here, and react to this particular anecdote by calling her a "sheep" and attempting vainly to spell the word "controversial."

Seriously, think about it for a second -- you just went to the personal website of a non-opinion journalist, and wrote that she has no courage, that she's never "exmained her life" and "desperately wants to avoid it," all under the mama's boy protection of a pseudonym. How sad is your life?

I hope that this site can remain a place where people of even halfway decent will and manners can enjoy a conversation above fourth-grade comprehension level. For the rest of you anonymous poo-flingers, I'd recommend fuckfrance.com, pavefrance.com, and Little Green Footballs. They l-o-v-e toughies named "Ripper" over there!

More reason's you might hear Americans true feelings about France in the airport and online.

"In May, Army intelligence found a stack of blank French passports in an Iraqi ministry, confirming what U.S. intelligence already had determined: The French had helped Iraqi war criminals escape from coalition forces ? and therefore justice."

" the downing of Air Force Maj. Jim Ewald's A-10 Thunderbolt fighter over Baghdad and the discovery that it was a French-made Roland missile that brought down the American pilot ...French had sold the missile to the Iraqis within the past year, despite French denials."

By the time this war is over the cites and fields of the loosing side will be burned by the hard radiation of a thousand andgry suns, repent and join us, or hide your relics deep underground so our descendants can dig them up.

How did this little weblog attract so many mean-spirited nutcases? Ripper, just follow Matt's suggestions: FuckFrance, LGF, whatever, get your own blog or if you have friends, buy them dinner and tell them all about your theories. You won't get quality attention here, and even less consideration.

Emmanuelle -- How about activating user authentication for comments? Otherwise simply delete or ignore the comical contributions of these losers - no excuses needed.

Wow, Ripper is such a tough name! I mean, it makes you sound so tough! I can tell how tough you are, because you are so tough when you write things! It makes me all tingly and stuff! Grrrrrrrrrr! I'm a ripper! Look at me!

Hey genius, apostrophe s *doesn't* make words plural. There is only one "o" in "loser". Funny that a loser can't even spell the word that describes him.

Tough! You're tough!

Love,

Ken

"By the time this war is over the cites and fields of the loosing side will be burned by the hard radiation of a thousand andgry suns, repent and join us, or hide your relics deep underground so our descendants can dig them up..."

You stole that ENTIRE line from "BATTLE FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES..."

"In May, Army intelligence found a stack of blank French passports in an Iraqi ministry, confirming what U.S. intelligence already had determined: The French had helped Iraqi war criminals escape from coalition forces ? and therefore justice."

Hey, genius, this is not a sign "The French" had done anything. It's a sign that somebody had gotten their hands on a bunch of blank passports. How? One person paid off? We don't know. There are a lot of assumptions being made here -- a lot of nasty anonymous crap being leveled at Emmanuelle. Her job isn't to be the Hardball of the Web. In fact, I especially enjoy her blog because it has personal stories and revelations from her life instead of a bunch of links to political stories you can bore yourself to death reading on 10,000 other blogs. If you're going to attack her, let us see your faces, so we can judge you, too.

Obtenir vos pattes puant de moi, vous avez condamné le singe sale!

My original complaint was that the Good don't get quality attention here, only dhimmitude dudes detained by France's allies in Iraq.

Rodger:

LOL!

Um, I don't want to get technical with the French over here but I think you were trying to say:

Prenez votre puer vous tripote outre de moi les singes sales de rien !

As Roger has already stated he likes to pour the cheap french wine, so it's not fair to hold him to the same standards as non-sods when he's trying to cope with a simple foreign language.

I think this is what RJ meant (with the help of Google translate):

Obtenir vos pattes puant de moi, vous avez condamné le singe sale!

To English:
To obtain your legs puant of me, you condemned the dirty monkey!

To German and back to English:
In order to receive your legs, which are puant of me, you condemned the dirty ape!

To Portuguese and back to English:
The end to receive its feet, that are puant of me, you condemned the dirty ape!

My bad.

Especially in light of Rodger's avowed love of primates.

la singe ne tuera pas la singe!

GET YOUR PAWS OFF OF ME, YOU DAMNED DIRTY APE!

I must fire my French translator now.

Rodger, why don't you keep the translator, and unhand that big half-empty bottle of cheap french wine?
Your liver will thank you in the morning.
btw, the correct quote is "Get your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape."
Of course, you being a home-based journalist, what do you care about getting anything right?

Have you forgotten your scripture, the thirteenth scroll? "And Proteus brought the upright beast into the garden and chained him to a tree and the children did make sport of him."

LOL!

Hey---what happened to the Franco-basher?

Once I figured out his Simian "sympathies," he just lit out of here.

Then again, maybe we inadvertently reminded him that he hadn't visited any ape or primate chatrooms to "enlighten" about the French.

Well, maybe he'll get some frindly bantering via e-mail from some of my readers as I just posted on this:

http://8763wonderland.crimsonzine.com

Rodger, good for you. You popped your cherry! You bothered to look up a quote!
Enjoy the strange new world of journalism.
Next up: Making sense.

Enough AA. No insults towards my guests here. Conversation closed.

Rodger:

Great post---and a good way to validate your readership.

Is it me or does sitemeter breed it's own form of narcissism?

What do you say? Are you an insane lady?
Emmanuelle, your guests have been insulting everybody! You and your friends are a disgrace to France!
Not all the French people drink wine to take care of the problems you know Emmanuelle!
You are but a complete joke and not a funny one at all, too!
I am now embarrassed that people think that how you behave is like that in all our country. No wonder the americans hate us so badly!
They think we are but all like you!
Please the americans who say are hating us, please believe when I say that we are not all like Emmanuelle! Many of us like what you have done for us, and continue to visit the cemetaries on the D-day anniversary to pay our respect and appreciation and thanks!
Yes, Chirac may be a common criminal but that is our mistake that most French admit and I hope to be a part of getting rid of him.
Please I want to say thank you on behalf for all of France for helping us to save France in the days when the devil was in charge and the world was on fire.
Don't let a few prideful French like Emmanuelle drive you to forget about the many French who are of appreciation of you!

Very entertaining JP! Is that you, Luke? (It remind me of Chaim.) You're the best "fake French" dude I've ever read. Wish you could read this out loud with your fake French accent and a baguette under your arm.

I once interviewed this French actor in Hollywood who does a voice in Shrek and created a group of Hollywood French actors who fight the trend of hiring non-francophone actors to play French people. In commercials, in TV, in films: it's incredible how many actors have the worst fake French accent. It's also funny, because, at casting, French actors who put so much effort in getting rid of their accent, are often told to "exagerate" their natural accent to sound more like Maurice Chevalier.

Wish you could leave an audiopost, JP, for entertainment value.

Funny story, Emmanuelle. Last year, my now-former agent aligned himself with entertainer Ice Cube's production company. I was developing a script that had a strong African-American lead. During one rewrite pass, my agent said I should make the character "sound more black."

Ummm .... okay. I did as he asked. When it was time to do the final polish before we took the script to the company he handed me a small set of notes and one of them was:

"Ty (the character) sounds too black. Tone him down."

Once again, I did as he asked.

And what was one of the reasons, after "toning the character down", that Cube's company cited for passing on the screenplay?

"The lead character isn't black enough."

Only in Hollywood

These days you can pay to see Planet of the Apes, or for free on the BBC you can see them performing. You can see the Ape ladies in their bondage masks and the Ape semi-males with their guns, tourturing human babies.

The scary thing is that each of them was born human. How did they teach them to betray us in their Ape schools and with their Ape TV channels? Are they trying to teach you?

I'm a seeker too. But my dreams aren't like yours. I can't help thinking that somewhere in the universe there has to be something better than man. Has to be.

Rodger, I guess it's a pretty slow blog day when you're just cutting and pasting from some half-assed flame war on a tiny blog authored by an unknown unread nationalist frog in the middle of nowhere.
I cannot believe that you posted on E's site to solicit YOUR site, so that we may witness your cut and paste prowess first hand!
Pathetic.
You claim to be a collegue of E., then you use her blog to pimp your own lowly pile of aimless unsold missives, as if any readership, even from here, would enjoy watching to chew on your own toe cheese.
Rodger, though I know that you are simply exercising what is a well known historical precident, that's still no reason to exploit the French for your own pitiable gain, a manifest world tradition such as it is.

Found on Rodger Jacob's sad website:

"French bashing is still in vouge ... and uglier than ever "

So is your spelling, you arrogant moron!
Try "v-o-g-u-e" on for size.
And you try to call yourself a writer! Misquoting movies, spelling like a junior high student while aiming no higher than silly jackass remarks of no merit.
No wonder your agent dumped you and you're stuck hustling for hits for your unread blog.

Ummm ... Cornelius? I don't need to solicit from E's page. Look to the right and you'll see I'm on her links. Silly boy.

Algernon, Rodger Jacobs used to write for "Hustler" magazine.
This would explain Emmanuelle's obsession with protecting him, since he worked for a publication that believes Americans should treat women like the Frenchmen treat theirs; as soulless vestibules for Man's scorn, jizm, and scorn. In that order.
I'm surprised that Rodger has readers, as he claims. I didn't know truckers were present on the internet.

Regardless, Rodger. What you're doing is "log-rolling."
A time-tested venture into pimp and whoredom by many "writers" since man invented book jacket blurbs.
The fact that you've reduced yourself to such a low and common practice speaks volumes for your destiny.

Cornelius:

Rodger has done more than ANY journalist I know to advance the cause of Simian liberation.

Ape shall not kill ape!

"you've reduced yourself to such a low and common practice speaks volumes for your destiny"...

Obviously you have no grasp of Rodger's true narrative talents.

I defy you to read APEFUCKER: The Secret Diaries of Dian Fossey without breaking into sobs...

Cletus, you're my new hero. I can go out to a political panel and come back, and you've been fending off some loony apes in the meantime.

Roger rocks (thanks Luke Ford for the cyber- introduction, some er... six years ago) Actually, most of Hustlers readers are not truckers if my sources are correct, but inmates. Once shared a dinner table with Larry Flynt, who recently came to the defense of Romanian rappers Parazitii against government censorship. His speech was very good.

French men can try to treat their women like the (gorgeous, often East-European) models in Hustler but there's a culture gap here. The French have a magazine called Hot Video. It's much more graphic than Hustler, with no censorhip from the Bible Belt distributors. Hustler is taylor-made for Americans and you can't really put everybody in the same XXX boat. It could be an interesting experience: mail Hot Video instead of Hustler to the 2 millions or so inmates in U.S. prisons. There would be riots.

Emmanuelle, thanks for contradicting yourself regarding your non-political way of life.
This blogsite is political as it gets, and the fact that you defend "Hustler" and the syphlitic Larry Flynt only again betrays your French heritage.
It's no wonder that the muslims are painting bullseyes on your country.
A country known for supporting anti-semitism, and ironically, at the same time, tolerating islamist extremists, muslim dictators, and at the same time not allowing muslim girls to wear headscarves to school!
The only difference between the muslims and the rest of the world is they take you seriously, and are ramping up for their pound of French flesh.
Watch "Casablanca" again. The jewish screenwriter's marked disdain towards the duplicitous "morals and ethics" of the average Frenchman is applied as a metaphor in the Claude Raines character!
This is what the majority of Americans think of France. Just some drunk, opportunistic manipulative joker looking for the next foreigner to shake down, and underage girl to exploit.
The world laughs at you and your country, as they laugh at the bumbling, ever horny, misogynist, fence-sitting Claude Raines as he exclaims his shock that there is gambling going on in a casino.
Even the French aversion to a full days work is lampooned in the movie:

Girl : We'll be there at six!
Renault : I'll be there at ten.

Nothing has changed in the world's attitude towards your country since WWII, Emmanuelle, because nothing has changed in France. It remains it's own "casablanca."

Matt:
"Seriously, think about it for a second -- you just went to the personal website of a non-opinion journalist, and wrote that she has no courage, that she's never "exmained her life" and "desperately wants to avoid it," all under the mama's boy protection of a pseudonym. How sad is your life?"

Matt, you need to get a life. Or at least a new hairstylist, you "revenge of the nerds" lookin' mo' fo!
And your wardrobe choices! I can see you liked the eighties, and the eighties certainly liked you!
I agree with the others about your wife having no soul, but what I don't understand is why you and she take offense to this?
Isn't it the french up-and-comers and those who marry them greatest desire is to get in touch with their French pointlessness?
One would think that you have already discovered this, hence your choice of eyewear.
As you know, but have already discounted, in America, there's no honor in being a dweeb, so don't try to pontificate about what is and isn't honorable in this forum.
This is a forum for French people to enter and spray their pseudo-intellectual/political jizz upon themselves.
If you should call for honor, if you demand satisfaction, find another forum. And quit shopping at the Gap, and consider a hair salon that does not offer drive-thru service.

I also seem to remember something in Casablanca about the beginning of a beautiful friendship. But then we all know the Jewish screenwriters' marked disdain for the American Richard Blaine, a drunken cynic who won't "stick his neck out for nobody [sic]". Probably sold Renault out to the Gestapo at the first opportunity.

drive thru hair salon ?
Now, that's fun ! You should have thought of it earlier and spare us the rest.

>> In America, there's no honor in being a dweeb

Damn I always thought this dog was the sh*t

And apparently so did this fan:

"Paul Reubens, better known as Pee-Wee Herman, was a role model to anyone growing up in the 80's. Who could forget his gray suit with red bow tie? He made us laugh, and made bow ties cool. He taught us smart-ass remarks, and that masturbating in public is acceptable as long as you don't get caught. [...] The carefree attitude of Pee-Wee is something we should always remember as adults. Even though the Pee-Wee character was taken away from us due to the media's criticism of his one handed act in the movie theater, he lives on in our hearts. If you haven't seen Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, watch it. If you have, revisit your childhood and watch it again. "

Irina had been a hostage too. She was holding Arthur [her three-year-old son] when a terrorist pressed his gun against the boy?s head.

She clasped the lad tightly and begged: ?Please kill me, don?t touch my boy. I?m a believer.?

The terrorist replied: ?Your faith is nothing. Believe in Allah!?

Then he shot Arthur through the temple, killing him instantly.

Emmanuelle is the president of France! Please direct all your attacks to her! She will fix them! It will be up to her to make France America!

Ripper hates the French! Woo hoo! It's original!!! Yay for tough guys who quote stuff! Quotey quotey! Hey, it's almost like quota! Like the quotas for the immegrants! But not Ripper! His family didn't come from Europe! They were immaculately conceived on the Great Plains of the US of A!!!! Woooo hooooo for hating France! You're right, Ripper! Let 'em rip! Kill 'em all, especially the Muslims you hate! And the French! WOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

At this point, I think we can deduce a few things about Ripper's identity:

1). His name is an attempt to pay tribute to the Yorkshire Ripper which tells us that he's a Brit who probably collects those serial killer trading cards.

2). Like many of his fellow Brits (especially of the French-hating kind), it is highly likely that he's a Sodomite (not that there's anything WRONG with that!)...

3). He has a rich fantasy life and appears to have some kind of ape fetish.

Sloop Ken B raises an interesting question. Here

We see the President of France personally giving the tools of Atomic Genocide to a mostly shaved Ape. The Itailians delt with one of their inhuman monsters with a lamp post, did our radio broadcasts help? If we were to destory all French media and feed Fox into their eyeballs for a year, would they wake up and back the humans in the War? What are the coordinates of French TV sats, how many ASAT weapons do we have on alert?

Paul:
"I also seem to remember something in Casablanca about the beginning of a beautiful friendship. But then we all know the Jewish screenwriters' marked disdain for the American Richard Blaine, a drunken cynic who won't "stick his neck out for nobody [sic]". Probably sold Renault out to the Gestapo at the first opportunity."

No, Paul. The movie was written during the heyday of vichy France. Think of it as a moral lesson reflecting the hopes of Americans that the French never realized.
The more appropriate ending would have been for Rick to wait until Ilsa's plane was aloft, then tying Ranier to a chair, and finishing him off ala Resevoir Dogs.

Philipe:

"Damn I always thought this dog was the sh*t

And apparently so did this fan:

"Paul Reubens, better known as Pee-Wee Herman, was a role model to anyone growing up in the 80's. Who could forget his gray suit with red bow tie? He made us laugh, and made bow ties cool."

Actually, Pee Wee lost is now a social parriah, has been accused of dabbling in kid porn, and doesn't work much anymore.
This supports the hypothesis that being French could be genetic.

"Cat Fight" Now Playing

I recently sent a Press Release to Amy Alkon who writes a syndicated column called "Advice Goddess" and got a diatribe about our company on her website. The statements are false.

Bolow are some of her nasty comments. So I have published an amusing Blog about her at

www.sew-beautiful.us/concreep

Amy...The following statements you made about me and our company, Sew Beautiful, www.sew-beautiful.us on your Blog are libelous and they are false. You have no basis
for making these remarks. Here are Amy’s remarks...

"I especially love your argument that your customers like it. I'm sure the guy who gets a stolen TV really cheaply from a
fence is thrilled as well.

"DOES Chanel really know what you're doing? I doubt it."
"I'm loath to believe anything you say"

"...there's much you're doing that's illegal"
"Your rationalization of it is absolutely disgusting"
"Clearly, you are utterly unconcerned with much but making a profit."

"Your business practices make me retch, and your disrespect for others' creative work and intellectual property is creepy."

"Hey, there were lots of Nazis in WWII. Doesn't make it right to murder Jews, homosexuals, and gypsies. "Everybody's doing it" doesn't make it moral. What's so disturbing is the energy you put into defending your taking the work of others and profiting from it. Knockoff artists sicken me. It's wrong to profit from work that is not yours -- whether or not there's some hole in the fence of the law that permits you to sneak through and do it."

I am sorry we have had such a negative
correspondence about my site. I am really a good person who wanted to help people who had trouble taking their medications. My sister-in-law has Parkinson's. It all started with our PILL PROOF (www.sew-beautiful.us/yournetstores) kit and just expanded from there. I was in a bad car accident and was unable to work for 10 years from a back injury. My doctor said I should start an
internet business so I would be able to work around my injury. I never thought I would have so many businesses. I am truly blessed and mean no bad will towards you.

UPDATE ...

Hollywood Fish Bowl LA has
published a rather funny comment about Amy
having too much time on her hands if she is so relentless about going after crippled, impoverished manual piece-work laborers in Wisconsin college towns!
