All day yesterday, every U.S.local and national news broadcast’s lead story was not about Afghanistan, health care or unemployment but the fact that McDonald’s is joining the Mona Lisa at the Louvre, and that France has the dubious distinction of having more McDonald’s than anyone outside the U.S.To me this means obese and monolingual American tourists prefer the “familiar” and not being faced with anything “foreign,” yet want to tell their neighbors at home that “We saw the Mona Lisa,” even if they saw no other art on their “cultural” tour of Paris — oh, yes, they can eat the same American McDonald’s “cuisine” by that other icon, the Eiffel Tower.

That’s very nice of you, cigalechanta. I’m especially happy to learn that the colors are good, as I worry that they won’t be the same on other computers as they are on mine.

Thanks a lot.

I’m glad you liked them, anniemousette. Looking through these photos (and others) reminds me of good times spent there — and makes me want to go back.

Like a child, I’m looking at the “pictures” and loving them! I have to go back and reread the informative text, but in the meantime I like all the photos — thank you!!!

He was wonderful. I hope they do a retrospective now.

Well, I wish you were here. I’m trying to talk someone into going with me.

I’ve been a fan of his for years and always thought he was under
rated.
