Easter - From: Paques it Up
Your Father is coming to visit us in Florida on Sat. We are going to have our Easter dinner on Sunday 3/30/08. We went to Sunrise Service on Lake Jackon at 7 AM on Easter Sunday. It was cloudy and sprinkles but warm. 67 Degrees. France is sure different from the US. NO EASTER BUNNIES. Grandma Susie

few things... - From: Getting in touch with my Inner Biker
1) the haircut is HOT 2) you beat me to London by about 6 months... I'm going on the UK trip next fall with Margaret, Dr. Menzer, and Dr. Barrington :D London and Dublin aren't going to know what hit them once Ben, Ingle, Aly, John, and I get there... 3) every time you describe the desserts you make for your students I am jealous of them. 4) I MISS YOU AND I LOVE YOU!

London?! - From: Getting in touch with my Inner Biker
For the record, when I saw the "O Rare Ben Johnson" marker at Westminster, I jumped up and down, squealing and doing Jimmy's seal impression. I also had about the same reaction when I realized that I could touch Dickens and Handel at the same time. Also, your hair is super hot. You look like an awesome french flapper---but a cute respectable one, not a sketchy bootlegging one. :)

I'm so glad the drugs did the trick! I'd hate for you to have been all miserable. And it was absolutely wonderful to talk to you last week!!!!!! Of course, all of your flying around probably got you in the sick condition. Hope you're 100% soon!

- From: Toussaint Vacation.....The Corsica Edition
Oh, it makes me so nostalgic to read about Corsica! I have such fond memories of the train putt-putting over the rugged landscape, stopping occasionally to let the cows move from the tracks.

TURKEY... or chicken... day - From: So what is Thanksgiving?
It sounds/looks like you had a fun thanksgiving! and that you have at least exposed if not converted the foreigners to the good side of the south: FOOD AND FUN! Sweet potatoes are my FAVORITE so I don't blame you for the double dosage.

You CAN fry anything. - From: Yes, you can fry that!
"So Tuesday for dinner we had an unusual entrée that Patrick and Christine brought back from their recent trip to Amsterdam." Fried weed? No wonder your kids thought that their cheeks were made of cheese. Little stoners.

I'm jealous you got to see the fountains of Versailles when they were actually fountaining... when we were there they were pretty but rather unimpressive. :-P

Awww, you're bringing the South to France! *tear* I'm so proud! I could teach this Sam character a thing or two about "might could," but other than that you seem to be doing a fine job!

KATITA! - From: Les Bearnaises
My favorite entry thus far, but I'm behind, so it could be topped. I love the descriptions of the kids, and I can't believe you have a friend name Jean-Luc! Amazing! I am so glad that everyone is looking out for you! When the Futons performed at the Pi Kapp scaffold last Friday, I started to tear up a bit when it wasn't you singing about your tickets to Iron Maiden... Also, I took two people to see Mr. Hoge last Thursday and he was as good as ever. He sang a lot of the songs from the new CD and you're going to love it. I am sorry that most of this comment had nothing to do with the entry...
