(Other than the jerky French waiter who actually refused to serve me yesterday but that's a whole 'nother story) I don't think the French don't like us, I actually think that mostly the whole world roots for us. I think they see us, like we see ourselves, as the shining city-on-the-hill. But sometimes they criticize our behavior, which friends sometimes do with friends? That doesn’t mean there aren’t some cheap shots taken by people like my Montmarte waiter (clearly a really bad man, he’s probably even murdered people...) Perhaps The Village Square can do a season on FRANCE (with adequate study aboard opportunities available of course). You think “the French” is of those left/right Rorschact tests?
