Matt,
I have always said that the French are weird. This recently heard true story proves my point. A woman living in Nice, France, had to get approval from the president of France before she could marry. Why? Because the man she married is DEAD. That's right, old Jaques Chirac gave her the o.k. to marry a dead man. Now most people in the U.S.upon hearing this assume that there is money invovled. Maybe if this was in the states, but this is France. They are just weird! She said she was still emmotionally attacched to him and still communicated with him on a spiritual level. There are obvios advantages to this relationship. He will never come home late. He will never scream at her or say bad things to her. Of course, she could never get him to sign divorce papers if she one day tires of him. My feeling is she'll probably cremate him and make an ash out of him. The French are weird.This is why we don't want them running Iraq or the U.N. Just watch them jumping around like a bunch of goof balls during Bastille Day. I rest my case.
Love,
Your Papa
