You want ANOTHER bottle of champagne, G? You've been through two already!!! Well, go ahead and finish off my Calvados. Here...

Now look...we're on Francis's street now. I wonder which of these houses is his? (I do hope this driver knows where he's going. I don't speak much French, you know.)

Is this it? What a lovely place!

No, that wasn't it. Maybe it's this charming cottage. But would it have room enough for all of us?

Ooh, maybe it's this Art Deco!

Oh wait. Here it is! And there's Francis out front, waiting for us!

Near, near.

Just ten minutes away, I told you!

Obviously, we'll visit "Le château de Fontainebleau" and it's gardens. Le jardin de Diane is magnificent!

After, I'll manage to take you to a Paris' grand tour!

We're ready!

Um...on second thought...give us a few hours to sleep off the jet lag first, okay?

Then away we go!!!

Oh boy, what a day. Jacques, could you bring me a bottle of your finest white wine please. I just got back from scolding a naughty child and I'm ready for a drink or ten.

Sure, you can sleep. The house is very quiet.
As you woke up, can I offer you this, before a really "petit-déjeuner" :

Well, I need to wake up. I see Francis has brought me some orange juice. Now, if Montana will just pass that champagne over this way...voila!

Mmmmm....and now, I think I will have one of those croissants, if there are any left. I do hope Dys didn't eat them all.

Someone asked the difference between whiskey and bourbon. In order to be designated a bourbon the liquor must contain more than 51 percent corn with the remainder being produced from other grains.

Please pass the corn in the form of a Manhattan:
1 to 2 shots of Maker's Mark
1/2 shot of sweet vermouth
a dash of bitters
over ice or shaken and poured straight up.

I am enjoying my vegetables without ice.

Somebody take that bottle away from Joe. He's had enough. He just wrote:

As a matter of fact, Joe...YES.
