Isn't it about time for the Germans to forget to set the parking breaks on their tanks and conquer France again?

The Frankish Kingdom was based in Achen, Germany. It later spilt into German and French counterparts. The most famous of its leaders was Karl Der Grosse, aka Charlemagne.

I personally believe that the better part of France must have been lost during their violent revolution in which they tried to emulate, but sadly betrayed, most everyting this country stands for.

While traveling in Europe 2 years ago, I took my family through France. The only rule was that we would not spend a dime there. Instead, we lunched in a very charming town in Belgium -- Brugge.

At the days end, and after explaining why my wife and I detested the French, I asked my young sons to remember that day. That if they ever pass through France they should never contribute any money to that miserable economy or its thankless people.
