That's the special western dialect of French, I take it?

Or Jason's lack of French composition. Like any western would know what the heck I was talking about anyway. If you know any cute single French girls willing to teach the language, you know where to send them;)

Etoile teaches Grade 1 French immersion, so she knows lots of cute single girls who speak French better than either of us. But if you had anything else in mind besides improving your language skills, you'll need to wait 15 years or so.

Oh man that is so wrong. Funny, but so wrong.

On another note while were on the language thing, I hate how Bob Roll always says Tour "Des" France in such an anglicized tone. I just want to strangle him! For a dude who has raced in it you think he'd know how to pronounce the bloody race.

maybe he can go to grade one immersion with you.

I've heard him asked about it in interviews, and he darned well knows what the right pronunciation is, but he chooses to keep saying it in his own way. It drives me nuts too.
