Monsier, pardon moi. Me thinks the French are overated. The wines, that is.
Well, also the food & cuisine & even Paris. Now the French & Euros have
started World War IV with this GE/Honewell thing.
Again IMHO, there are numerous California merlots and Aussie Shiraz which
are far better & cost less that many of the French low-quality blended
Boordoes. It's a sad thing to see the once mighty French as they are vainly
attempt to turn back the clock to their glory days.
Time for another glass of Benzinger.
