lol, sparv. didn't mean to be offensive in any case. or cause an international melee here.... like i stated twice above, all of this is humorous... as a matter of fact, one of my kendo sensei is french, (my ex-gf too) and i have plenty french friends all whom i get perfectly along with (even with the humorous stereotype jokes). so don't take it to heart pls.... OTOH, i think the whole 'plot against our economy' thing is being fuelled by this: http://www.20minutos.es/noticia/3443...nes/franceses/ the vandalising of spanish trucks in the french border. it's happening again! now, i can understand both sides... but this is why sometimes they call french here ''volcacamiones'' (truck-knockers)... lol. cheers
