Today is Bastille Day, but, considering the differing opinions of the US and France regarding Iraq, the festivities in NY seemed tame. The Times wondered where the French were and one middle-aged French woman said, "I think there's so many French people in New York that most of them are probably somewhere else. Maybe they're in Brooklyn."
The Times also has a feature on authors of books on how to understand the French, such as Sixty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong, a title which lends itself to about a thousand one liners, ranging from Jerry Lewis to being rude.
Yesterday was the Bastille Day celebration from the Alliance Francaise, but n'inquiete pas, there's an event for the "jeune" at Bubble Lounge.
