This is to complete my previous letter about Nicolas Sarkozy "Adik" whereas I wrote that after I dreamed abut my old friend Ade Pane, a few hours later at CNN there was the news about Nicolas Sarkozy announcing he was running for president. In this page contains his inauguration as the new president of France.

My old friend Ade Pane also often joked that my family came from the island of Sicilia. Recently I realized that the name of president Nicolas Sarkozy's wife is Cecilia Sarkozy.

In that previous letter of Nicolas Sarkozy "Adik", dated 12 May 2007, I also wrote that "......my old friend Ade Pane happens to be rather shorter than average height of my other friends. And Nicolas Sarkozy also rather shorter than the average height of the French......". Then in the above photo of 17 May 2007, president Nicolas Sarkozy appeared wearing short pant in front terrace of Elysee Palace.

Actually yesterday I have prepared to complete the above letter about president Nicolas Sarkozy's inauguration, but then the computer got stuck. When it has restarted, I found at Yahoo front page the news about Napoleon's sword in auction.
