I like to think that today those people are left wondering what world they were living in....Rummy would call it the "Old World". I just hope they're saying: "Je pense que je suis abusif".

We moved back to the states last summer and the last time I went to France was about a year ago. I just found the people in Alsace friendlier than those in Paris. We saw some real loonies in Paris. More than you would think. What does your French phrase mean? I don't speak French.

"I just found the people in Alsace friendlier than those in Paris. "....I agree. Alsace is the best area of France. I've been to France 3 times and the trip to Alsace was my second favorite trip anywhere. I actually don't blame the French people as much as I blame Chirac. Polls in Ireland were against the war too, just like the polls in France. Still I reckon that France will be hurt big-time by their stance economically. I am Canadian and the polls here were against the war, but just about everyone I talked to was for the U.S. going in and supported the U.S. I was ashamed at Chretien's lack of action. I would blame Chretien and not the Canadian people. In fact, polls now say Canadians by a majority wish we had gone to war, and support the U.S. Canadians are a more conservative and level-headed people than our leader. Canada will be hurt too by this, but don't blame the people. I went to the U.S. yesterday and spent about $800, and had a great time over there. It was good to be back. I've never seen so many flags in my life, and that was in New York state.

Sorry...had to do an open house.

"Je pense que je suis abusif".

It's supposed to say, "I think I was wrong". But I'm not sure how to do past tense (J'ette?). So it really says "I think I AM wrong".
