That's right, the slacker in the baseball cap slouching in his seat in the back of the class of French class who's not even bothering to conceal his earbuds may be absorbing more then you,…

My good friend of many years, the multi-talented French singer-songwriter Gilbert Laffaille (do you remember "Le Président et l'éléphant"?) has two very talented daughters. One of them, Louise, has just come back to New York where she has been accepted at the very competitive HB Studio in a two-year acting workshop. The joint housing she had arranged has proven unworkable (too much smoking for her, among other things)…

I received an e-mail yesterday from a Frenchwoman which ended with the salutation, Bon dimanche! And I thought, that's a first -- no one has ever wished me a "good Sunday." But once thing I've noticed (and like) about the French, they are always wishing you a bon something or other.
