They're the ones who know how to make the cheese and wine you fool.

I guess we could destroy all the non-artisans. :thumb:
You'd have to enslave them otherwise they'd simply keep going on strike. You could teach the Germans how to do it - then you'd get twice as much output.

I dunno. I think we'll let them make the sausage and beer. I don't think the Germans have enough......... flair for the cheese and winemaking. :rofl:

Show of hands - who on this thread bashed the french but have never been to france?

I've gone half a dozen times and never had a problem.

Actually the worst treatment anywhere around the world has been in Florida.

I've been to France. Several times. Didn't have any problems except for one very unhelpful transit employee in Sallanches.

But they're sooo much fun to heckle. You can't deny that.

And they make damn good wine and cheese.

Edit: I'd bet dollars to donuts that fluff's been there. Lots. :D

And you'd win. Been there lots, it's a great place and I like the French!:hot:

Oh, and Paris is not typical of France as London is not typical of the UK.

Its probably only been the in mini bar for 3 years.
Hey give me some credit - I ordered the Franzsikannerzdreireicharyan Kristallnacht from room service (along with the Hilton Burger, Mediterranean salad and Creme Brulee). I'm just using the mini-bar to keep it cool (and hunting for a bottle opener that turned out to be strategically hidden right on top of it).

It's getting better by the swallow, btw. I could almost live on this stuff.

By the way, the Franziskaner Kristall ain't that great. But maybe the second bottle will be an improvement.
you have just proved that you have no taste

edit

i should say that franzis kristall (white label yeah ?) is a real real light beer for herman brews... but you prolly know that... it s more of a summer beer that you can slam down... one of my old workmates introducted me to it... definately not one of my faves, but on a hot day it is a real treat... i have a case of that cr@p in my stash back in CA...

go pogues fashion... 'p1ss yaself in frankfurt and get sick down in cologne'

shirley - i saw the frankfurt galaxy play... pretty good time actually, made a sh1t load from the tickets i scalped and dranks mad amounts of beer from massive plastic cups... my first live experience of american football... not totally forgettable so i was happy...
