“America’s Finest News Source”

Friday, 27 February 2009 | 12:10

In search of some comfort and in need of a mood-booster, I had some chocolate, made some coffee, and settled in to read The Onion, source extraordinaire of satirical news. A regular feature of the site is Our Dumb World, with various “facts” about the many countries that make up our big, bad world. This week’s featured country? France!

“Home to Earth’s entire population of 62.7 million people, every single one of the planet’s 427 cities, and all of its history, culture, and beauty, France is the only country in the world.”

Follow this link and use the sidebar menu as your guide to read all of France: One Nation Above God.

It’s a process

Wednesday, 11 February 2009 | 11:15

“Yes something has happened, and we can’t undo it. But let’s make the best. Let’s find other ways of doing things. And I think this is the lesson I’m learning now.

-Oliver Sacks

Curiosity killed the cat, you know…

La cynique est... Végétarienne. Activist. Socialiste. Perfectionistic. Stubborn. Attentive. Curvy. Quiet. Rebelle. Feminine. Sensible. Opinionated. Généralement anxieuse. A closeted optimist.

Cet espace est... Un lieu bilingue, libre et ouvert, without censorship (unless you're an evil spammer, in which case I will happily drive a stake through your heart and proudly display your head on a pike), plein de poésie et de beauté (espérons). Now put on your reading glasses and get busy.

The hills are alive
