Cub, Two items:
1)------------------------------------------------------------- Here's the situation.
You are the President of the United States. Scientists have discovered that a meteor is headed straight towards the earth. They have calculated that it will strike France in two days at approximately 2:30 AM eastern time.
The meteor is large enough to completely wipe France from the face of the earth.
France and the United Nations have urgently requested that the United States fire all of its missiles at the meteor. And that it send all available ships, troops and aircraft to help evacuate the country. Many of these ships and planes you could send are being used to fight the war on terror overseas.
As the President, you must decide. Do you stay up late on the night of the impact to watch the coverage live on CNN, or do you tape it and watch it in the morning?
2) ------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Comments on France
"France has neither winter nor summer nor morals. Apart from these drawbacks it is a fine country. France has usually been governed by prostitutes." ---Mark Twain
"I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one behind me." ---General George S. Patton
"Going to war without France is like going deer hunting without your accordion." ---Norman Schwartzkopf
"We can stand here like the French, or we can do something about it." ---Marge Simpson
"As far as I'm concerned, war always means failure" ---Jacques Chirac, President of France "As far as France is concerned, you're right." ---Rush Limbaugh
"The only time France wants us to go to war is when the German Army is sitting in Paris sipping coffee." --- Regis Philbin
"You know, the French remind me a little bit of an aging actress of the 1940s who was still trying to dine out on her looks but doesn't have the face for it." ---John McCain, U.S. Senator from Arizona
"You know why the French don't want to bomb Saddam Hussein? Because he hates America, he loves mistresses and wears a beret. He is French, people." ---Conan O'Brien
"I don't know why people are surprised that France won't help us get Saddam out of Iraq. After all, France wouldn't help us get the Germans out of France!" ---Jay Leno
"The last time the French asked for 'more proof' it came marching into Paris under a German flag." ---David Letterman
How many Frenchmen does it take to change a light bulb? One. He holds the bulb and all of Europe revolves around him.
Next time there's a war in Europe, the loser has to keep France.

Jents,
I just got this interesting tidbit off of the Internet..... Taylor Made is French owned. Sadly, so is First Hawaiian Bank, Glenlivet scotch, and Wild Turkey bourbon :-(
