The Illuminated Donkey

I am French, no? Courtesy of Protein Wisdom, a link to the Washington Times article "Euro Gets Lukewarm Welcome," filled with snotty French people! My favorite part: A waiter threw up his hands when a reporter asked for his check, listed in francs, to be converted to euros. "Ooh la la," he said. "You actually want to pay in euros. I am sad. I'll have to work it out." The waiter did not return. Okay, do you think the waiter actually said "Ooh la la" or was reporter Paul Martin perhaps just exacting a little revenge?
