Damn, Francis is here! (brings memories to mind of my own past surly remarks)

However, refreshing (and reassuring) to note that with typical Gallic contrarian spirit, he refuses to elaborate his reasons.

And we discuss American exceptionalism!

I like quite a few Americans.

Not all.

But, comparatively speaking, I like more Americans than I like some other varietals.

A man with an Oklahoma accent could probably convince me of just about anything. Embarrassed Which isn't always a good thing for me at work.

OOOH! I'VE GOT ONE!.....


No matter how grumpy the American women are feeling, when they talk, they always sound as if they have just had a recent organism.

and another thing:

their kids are really cute
they're very sincere
they have unusual names like Corey Whippenheimer, and they don't laugh each others funny names

Whole families of them travel in their vans wearing their pajamas.

Really.

I'm still marvelling at the memory of the sight.

I quite liked it.

It inspired me to wear my pajamas when I went grocery shopping near Setanta's place on that trip. Quite hmmmm freeing to shop in pajamas.
