The froggies ought to love this. They only need to crisp the locust up, dip them in chocolate, let them cool, and eat them.
To: MadIvan
Well, well; France has had quite a month, haven't they?

In the past it has been rumored that the U.S. was responsible for spraying cubas tobacco and sugar cane fields with herbacide and disease that would destroy that countrys economy.
I'd love to presume that the U.S. has dropped billions of locust eggs on parts of france to screw up their agriculture.
Hey frenchie, up yours.

-...people on the Riviera were prohibited from filling their swimming pools with mains water.-Are they complaining?...doesn't it come too close to bathing. So, It must be a "Fashion Thing"...taking baths...filled pools..and the like. :)

I was wondering what the big deal was from the article... I thought that they were talking about leftists, and thought, "well, it's a socialist country, what's the big deal."
I didn't think they meant a "biblical" plague of locusts!

The Frogs are already there, and they're killing off their own first (and second and third) born.

This plague of locusts sure sounded Biblical to me too.

The place will become palpably benighted... wait, they have been that way as long as human memory reaches.
