3/25    The difference between France and the US:  The French "take"
        decisions, as in "they take it up the ass".  Americans "make"
        decisions, as in "we make the dull rusty knife jammed up the French
        ass".
        \_ That's the stupidist thing I've ever heard.  That's the kind of
           joke you'd expect from a kid in Junior High.  Nice try, troll.
           \_ Junior High French covers the difference between "prendre
              une decision" and "faire une decision"?
        \_ Translated:
           Je suis un Americain stupide qui pense que le monde est simple
           et que les gens d'autres pays ne sont pas interessant penser
           environ. Tuez-moi, svp.
           \_ Yep, we Americans are a simple people.  But at least we don't
              roll over and we keep faith with our friends.
              \_ Like Saddam Hussein, to whom we gave approval to invade
                 Kuwait?
                 \_ Uh, this is bullshit
                    \_ Okay, then, like the Iraqis who rose up against
                       Saddam after GW1 because we told them we'd support
                       them militarily?
              \_ "I would rather have a German division in front of me
                 than a French one behind me." - General George S. Patton
        \_ The french-germans-russians are responsible for every major conflict
           since Napoleon.  Together, they have killed tens of millions.  France
           was once a great nation, until all of soldiers and able bodied
           men were killed.  Eventually, the only men left to repopulate
           were the queers and effet expresso sippers of Paris who were
           afraid to fight.  We now see the result.  Much of europe
           is dying, both economically and demographically.
           They will go the way of South America.  There is a reason
           American ancestors left Europe.
           \_ Yes, we went east looking for better hunting grounds.  Then we
              crossed a large icebridge and went south.  Imagine our
              surprise when you bastards came over in your ships.
           \_ It should be French-Germans-Russians-Japanese.
        \_ France has usually been governed by prostitutes.
                - Mark Twain, Notebook #18, Feb.- Sept. 1879
           French are the connecting link between man & the monkey.
                - Mark Twain, Notebook #18, Feb.- Sept. 1879
        \_ The only time the French didn't fight well is during WWII.
           The French fought decently in WWI.  Uncle Ho did kick their
           arse at DBP, but he also kicked our arse, so that's a draw.
        \_ Wrong.. South Vietnam was free for 2 years until the North
           invaded and Democrats refused any foreign intervention.

5/16    Can anyone tell me what Greece is hoping for by rejecting austerity?
        From here it seems like the austerity is a pretty generous attempt
        to keep Greece from imploding entirely.   Are they hoping the
        Germans will put them on eternal state welfare, or what?
        Also, why would an outright default mean they must leave the Euro?
        Is it just that they won't be able to pay basic gvmt services

12/15   I'm planning on traveling to Europe and I was wondering if there's
        any reason I shouldn't be able to use a US power tap/strip (no surge
        suppression) with just a plug adaptor (i.e., no voltage conversion).
        This would be for use with electronics that accept 100V-240V. While
        the power strip is intended for use at 120V, it's just wires, right?
        (Also, this power strip has no power LED or similar.) If anything,
