French Fried

Here's some news from the "It's funny when it happens to them" file: The International Olympic Committee snubbed Paris, France, and chose London, England to host the 2012 Games. (Chuckle.)

Paris, which was considered the heavy favorite (chortle), was the runner-up. (Or, as I look at it, the first loser.) The other losers, er, runners-up, were Madrid, New York City (did anyone want these Games held there?), and Moscow. Of course, the French took the loss with their usual grace. Take President Jacques Chirac, for instance:

“The only thing that they have ever done for European agriculture is ‘mad cow’ disease,” M Chirac said of the British. “You cannot trust people who have such bad cuisine. It is the country with the worst food after Finland,” he told amused colleagues during a meeting in the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad on Sunday. - The Times

(Tee hee hee.)

I promised myself I wouldn't make light of France's misery (chuckle), and am determined to remain professional (chortle) for the remainder of this post. Oh, screw it, I can't wait any longer. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! See ya tomorrow. Hahahahahahahahaha!!!
