Jacques Chirac

I'm tempted to throw
away my yogurt Yoplait.

Perhaps I'll request
a non French wine
the next time
that I dine.

Or in a show
of support for
the Country I love
a bottle of beer
will replace the
French wines
just fine.

Jacques Chirac,
French President

Thank you Denise, passing shadows and CD for the nice responses...
The wine is not that hard to give up but as for the French women...that is another story...ah yes, I believe that I could easily replace them with perhaps Asian women...yes I must get started right away...James

(sigh) Yes, the whole situation is rather confusing right now, I only hope the gap can be closed in and relations can improve soon! (sad sigh) This is very well and creatively expressed, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Thank you Cpat, Robert and Noah for the nice responses...
I just found out on a web site called www.HowtobuyAmerican.com   that Yoplait
is an American made product...nice to know.
Looks like relations with France haven't gotten better since I wrote this...
Cpat I have been learning how to eat with chopstick for the past three years...believe me I am well prepared...extreemly well...James
