Today's quotation
A tourist can be recognized at first glance. It's someone dressed so that, if he were in his own country, he would turn around in the street to stare if he saw himself walk by.
--Philippe Meyer in Portraits acides et autres pensées édifiantes, quoted in Le Bouquin des citations, ed. Claude Gagnière
Un touriste se reconnaît au premier coup d'œil. C'est un individu habillé d'une manière telle que, s'il se trouvait dans son propre pays, il se retournerait dans la rue en se voyant passer.
Le petit aperçu d'Ailleurs
- In Norway, a right-wing party leader called for "organized groups" of Rom, Bulgarians, and... French to be banned from the country.

Ok, we have had dogs, cats and other assorted animals for years, but this year we took in an old chihuahua and my husband has gone crazy and wants a costume for him.
I just don't understand it. (but...he would be cute in a costume ;))

I have to admit, I would have been seriously tempted if I had a dog!
