Tahoe every afternoon on the gust fronts

Heres another useless tip bit...

French derivative Currille.

Silly me, should have done a Google search on those terms. I bow to
your superior knowledge of useless trivia. Now I can go try and
translate the rest of your posts.
Happy Thunderstorms. Wanna bet it turns blue on the backside?

Slight error, Al. The new word is "COURRIEL", for COURRier ELectronique, or
electronic mail. The word "e-mail" is now banned in all official government
publications, documents, web sites, no joke, to be replaced by "courriel".

Lots of cheers, Charles

Only in France....

Its almost a thing from a Monty Python sketch.

Well, after adopting "cederom" for CD-ROM and "bogue" for "bug", one has to
draw la ligne somewhere.

Cheers, Charles
