wow, now that's news. i don't know which piece i like better:
The French Embassy in Washington had no immediate comment, except to say that french fries actually come from Belgium.
or
Ney [chairman of the House Administration Committee} said he was of French descent and "once the French government comes around we can get back to talking about french fries."
i know mmm_cake beat me to this quote -- The French Embassy in Washington had no immediate comment, except to say that french fries actually come from Belgium. -- but man, sometimes it's incredibly embarressing to be american.
haha. i heard that quote on the radio several times today too. apparently, that's all the french embassy said to anyone about it. my goodness... we are a bunch of fools, we americans.
eheheheh!!! my god, we (americans) are just so... i was going to say stupid which is funny given yesterday's discussion. but no, i think the american people as a whole certainly deserve to be called stupid in a case like this. oy!
