Today, I learned that plastic explosives smell sweet and some guy (at Auburn?) trained honeybees to go after that smell. These bees will fly to and hover over the plastic land mines, marking them for removal. But, sometimes, they don't go to the CLOSEST mine. That's a problem.

I also learned that I don't want any civet cat coffee, thanks.

PS-I also learned that France had f*cked up Vietnam LOOOOOONG before the US got into it. So there-*stares*-all you Frenchies*.

*meaning dov.

The sad part is we gave the keys back to the French after we rolled the Japanese.

I learned today that when the inch3 says "I'm not going to be shy" he means he doesn't feel like seeing his playmates and wants to be left alone.

Although he speaks english, he has different meanings for some of the words.

I learned today that I have blank spots from a dinner party I hosted on Saturday night. Because of that I've learned not to have too many post dinner ports...after pre dinner cocktails and during dinner wines.

DNA those spots and find out who's responsible.

They are called black outs, it’s a sign.

Next to raising children, there is nothing greater than being capable of helping a friend in need.

My mother tongue is English.

Both Grandfathers from England, Manchester and Leeds, one Grandmother who loved Czar Nicholas but had to escape in 1917, other Grandmother born in Montreal, her parents Eastern European.

I speak English, French only for business or sex. I speak French alot. I can read in four languages. Speak three.

I don’t accept the label frenchies. It is shallow, ignorant and bigoted. I expect an apology. Won't put a dent in you I am sure. You will rationalize you are right. Prove away, I don’t give a dam. I know who and what you are.

How many languages do you communicate in?

Yesterday I learned that you don't need money to turn someone into a raving asshole. Sometimes just the promise of money will do.

I learned today that bullshit is fun to shovel, no matter how far away it's flung from.
