Hey Jeff, I'm wit' youse-----can anyone name a country employing the metric system which has won a war (while on the metric system)? Ever? Leave out England----a) it (co)-won the War and, b) at the time was still on the Old Blighty system of "statute" measurements. That leaves Italy, Germany, and Japan. No problems, eh? I have noticed that most of the yogurt-eaters in Taxachusetts are busy converting their little future Yuppies to metric AND demanding that they learn (or be taught) some furrin lingo. Circle the wagons. It seems that, the more privileged and genetically/educationally predisposed to making big bux these pinkoes are, the more likely they are to abhor the society which makes them rich.
Nonetheless: Msr. Bourret----Kudos, et, vraiment, vous avez une automobile tres belle ET rapide! Marveilleux. Encroyable. Vraiment! J'ais visite la Belle France duex temps, et aime votre pais vraiment (especialment Paris, Chamonix et les provinces du nord). I was last there 2 years ago (2004). Would go again at the drop of un chapeau. Above all, I enjoy France because I can assail xenophobic Parisiens with my ABOMINABLE French accent (which is actually worse than my written version, if you can imagine that)! Ar-ar. Et alors, mon ami, How 'Bout Les Trois Stooges? Bonchance, Msr., et congratulations.
Chow (gotta keep up my 21-stone weight!!!)! Yippa-dang.
