David, that's most ungracious of you towards those nice French people. You'd still be spelling things properly if it wasn't for them.

Not to mention that the whole 'freedom fires' nonsense was a joke in and of itself - they were named for the chef, not the country. Yet another dimwit congress-critter giving us all a laugh.

Hence my joke reference. The Whole Freedom Fries issue was probably the stupidest thing our Congress has concerned itself with since _____________ (insert your own gag here. . .the list is endless)

I actually preferred Liberty McNuggets made from real Bald Eagles!

We are most amused. . . .

Does that mean Her Most Regal Majesty, who just happens to be one of the richest women in the world, will pay off our debt and put us all on an allowance??

I have no opinion on the pints/lagers/bitters/beers but the thing about the crisps. . .uh-uh. . .I'll stick with the FREEDOM FRIES!!!

I can just see Stinkie jumping up and down at this point shouting "They're Belgian Fries, dammit."

[Stinkie]

You better not make fun of me, Fraser! My FF subscription just expired, and I haven't decided yet whether I'll get a new one or not!

[Alan Fraser]

Aw! go on. I'll make you a nice little model of Karl Marx holding a cone of frites.

Okay by me, except that Andie Macdowell was playing an american in 4 weddings....

You are right Paul Just looked it up as I can't
remember watching the film, probably did and fell asleep
half way through. Check this out,

A surprise hit that was nominated for Best Picture in 1994, FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL is a marvelously performed romantic comedy. Hugh Grant is superb as Charlie, the suave young man who is always late for weddings, and is looking for the right girl to speak his own vows. Andie McDowell is the American who enters Charlie's life, but his refusal to make a commitment sends her into the hands of a much older man (Corin Redgrave). What makes this movie so delightful is its marvelous supporting cast: Simon Callow, Charlotte Coleman, John Hannah, James Fleet, and of course the sublime Kristin Scott Thomas as the acid-tongued but charming Fiona. Rowan Atkinson also has a scene-stealing hilarious moment as a nervous priest really screwing up the wedding ceremony at Wedding # 2. The movie is incredibly human and Hannah's recitation of a W.H. Auden poem at the funeral is extremely powerful. For romantic comedies, they don't get much better than this. Another high point: the guitar strumming couple who warble both CAN'T SMILE WITHOUT YOU and STAND BY YOUR MAN. A Fun film.

Ahhhh. The female lead. I kept thinking about some male American which I simply could not recall in the film. Thanks much. No wonder you guys could remember the name.
