Oh, forgot to answer the question. I like Burger King fries the best for fast food fries. Everytime I get to Bangkok eat a ton of them.

And Kerryd and Ulysses G? Taking on the reins?

Guess I should have read all 12 pages to get the context, but silly me, forgetting this was Bedlam, went to the end. :

Kerryd is Canadian.

He must be innocent too.

We are ALWAYS innocent ! (well except for that one little incident where we marched down to Washington and burned down the President's House.)

To cover up the fire damage, they slapped white-wash all over the place and ever since then it's been known as..........

The White House !

I like my FREEDOM FRIES a little salty, with gravy or ketchup on the side

conveniently forget blah blah blah...

US would be french if it weren´t for the english.,.... Convenient this up your arse.

Don't you mean that the US would still be English if it wasn't for the French?

If it weren't for the Vandals, Visigoths, Galgamacs or whatever, the English would still be Romans. Lets see how far back we can carry this.

If it weren't for those war-mongering Burmese, Ayutaya would still be the capitol of Thailand.

Not so. It's what the our troops were offered in the french bistros after they had liberated France. The english and canadians troops already had their own name for them.

...and the peeling of the spuds has been a valuable source of employment for the lower army ranks ever since.

AH! Spud bashing. I remember it well. French fries is a corruption of CHIPS. the original.

Oh dear.........I do seem to be selling the wrong kind of " Fish & Chips". Maybe I will have to send a memo to all 578,964 " Fish & Chip" shops in the UK.

Is that how many chippies there are in the UK? That seems a lot!

400 Cars Torched in France for New Year's

New Years Eve Scorecard: 313 cars torched (plus 83 by ricochet) and 258 arrests despite a police presence of 25,000. The French are getting so touchy about these statistics that they are "breaking out" a separate category of torched cars as in "cars accidentally exploding because they were too close to cars that were intentionally torched" (voitures brûlée par propagation). French authorities (who seem to have much more authority over bean counting regulations than over their own territory) confide that such levels of violence are well within what is now considered to be acceptable inevitable.

They do express concern that the average age of festive French youths is ever younger as witnessed by incidents involving 8 to 10 year olds. No doubt some new statistical gimmick will be found to finesse such hard realities in time for 2008

Gives a whole new meaning to "FRENCH FRIES" !!!!

Hope you’re sitting down, because a French court has ruled that pork soup is not racist .

PARIS (Reuters) - "A French court ruled Tuesday that an organization with far-right links can continue offering pork soup to the homeless, rejecting police complaints that the food distribution was racist.

Police banned the soup kitchen last month, arguing that the handouts discriminated against Jews and Muslims who do not eat pork on religious grounds.

The administrative court said the distribution was “clearly discriminatory,” but could not be stopped because the organizers offered to feed anyone who asked for help.

The mayor of Paris condemned the ruling and urged the police to appeal the ruling.

“Faced by this initiative which stinks of xenophobia, I want once again to express city hall’s desire to fight all forms of discrimination, racism and anti-Semitism,” mayor Bertrand Delanoe said in a statement.

So the Mayor of Paris would rather starve the poor than offend people with restricted diets. How... progressive.

How hard would it be to switch to veggie soup instead, if they really care about the poor and are not just out to make a statement that muslims and jews arent welcome?

Do you think the muslims who are so poor they are homeless and have to rely on charity are great threats to national security?

I agree but this is probably a case of "PCness" gone extreme.

Both sides appear to have an ax to grind.

The French believe that they are intellectually superior to any other nationality. The length and magnificence of their historical achievements leave the French convinced that they have a mission to teach and to civilise others. Their political, military and economic strengths may no longer predominate as they once did, but they perceive no diminishment or fading of their moral and didactic authority.

So we learn from the Daily Telegraph's National Cultural Profiles page devoted to France....

Fun W/ №s: the New Year Carbeque

In an effort to manage and dim the public temperament the Police lied with the help of the media. The number of cars torched on New Years’ Eve was initially stated at 301, then 396, up until the number 483 appeared somewhere. Nouvel Obs now reports it to be 683, up from 425 from 2005.

Partying like it’s 1939...

I don't mind arrogance, it's unfounded arrogance I find distasteful.

The French people that I meet in my store seem OK, however, we never talk politics.

I LOVE mayonaise on french fries, but - because I am huge already - am too embarrased to eat them that way!
