France Pics:

Zane thinks he's all cool cause he lived in France for five years. Well here's all the French I know: Douche Bag!

From left to right: Claire, Michael, Morgane and Daniel. My Strasbourgeois posse.

A party in my old apartment in the fall of 2000. To this day, I can still taste that cheap Sangria in the back of my mouth.

As I look from my apartment loft, I see trouble brewing further into the night.

A beautifully messy post-party afternoon.

The Café in "Amélie" DOES exist!

The inside looks just like it does in the film.

The Sadistic French: "Don't cry fat piggy, you're going to Noblet (the butcher)!"

The French trying to combat the sea of dog poo on the sidewalks of Paris. "A fine of 183 euros for any turd that is not picked up."

This kind of advertising is illegal in the US. Very rough translation (cause it's a play on words): Woman: "Right now, I'm wearing a top and some stockings." Man: "I love what's in between."

All the world's a stage indeed.

Yobe Wan-Kenobe...all together now! (I love inside jokes)

The French have creative tombstones.
