Jack Johnson’s Mellow Show!? Why has this never been thought of before? Brilliant! SNL made a hilarious comeback with the wonderful energy of Joseph Gordon-Levitt after that painful episode with January Jones, who has about as much personality as your elementary school bus driver (no personality, that is). And thanks for impersonating a perfect Jason Mraz, Mr. Gordon-Levitt! You made...
Merlin, grand voyageur
Merlin : En Afrique, c'est comme ça qu'on les mange les clémentines.
Maman : Ha bon ? Tu en sais des choses sur les coutumes africaines.
Merlin : Bah oui ! J'ai fait le tour du monde, tu t'en souviens plus ?!
Maman : Ha si ! C'est vrai. Et c'est dans quel pays d'Afrique qu'on mange les clémentines comme ça alors ?
Merlin : En Inde.

This reminds me of a scene in Life of Brian. Unfortunately, I’m unable to find that scene on youtube. Sucks for you!

I just found the Hide This French book book. I don’t remember every buying it, but here it is anyway. Here are some of the funnier translations. Is it accurate?

– The writers at tramdock are almost as clever as the ones at woot.
They do know their audience, though, and I don’t think the same humor would go too far with these kids.
Lame
That Meteor Shower last night?
Not too great. I mean, I didn’t go too far out in the country, but the moon was just past full, non? I saw some pretty awesome ones, don’t get me wrong, but in the four hours I was outside looking, I saw less than twenty. If I’m paying attention, even in the city, I can usually see one or two on a normal night.
So what I’m trying to say...
Bonne nuit...

Maman : Oui ?

I’ve decided that I am going to write a Great American (children’s) Novel. While I was writhing in muscle pain today (courtesy of the stupid medication that apparently is worth it for my complexion), I was thinking about my all-time favorite books. And guess what? The top on the list wasn’t the incredibly complex and mature novel by Isabel Allende called The House of the Spirits,...

State Teasing
seatofmypants:
Make no mistake, I love every one of our United States. But like a mother with fifty children, I inevitably like some better than others. Yet I understand that we wouldn’t be a whole flock if one sheep wandered off.
It is the same reason I like Tobey Keith, the Dallas Cowboys and close-mindedness. These things may suck, but they suck in a unmistakably American way.
With that in...

Food for thought.
Two meats I’ll miss when I go back home:
Boudin (Blood Sausage): Never too much of it, but two links go very well with Saurkraut and a beer.
Horse: Oh man, this meet is soo good. It’s tender, not as fatty as beef, and tastes better.
However, beef is better in North America anyway.

And the french translations aren’t what one uses here in Switzerland. Most of the internet companies are german speaking, so they tend to use the english words, even when in Romandie (The French part).
Mother's day
capucha:
I really have no idea why Mother’s day is celebrated on such different dates around the world. I’ll have to wait until June 7th to get my pasta necklace/camembert jewellery box. Anyways, Happy Mother’s day to all of you who celebrate it today :-)
At least it’s not a Gerber Gala jewellery box.
Gerber pour vrai, beurk.
