BOYCOTTING FRANCE: Reader Dominique Petitmengin writes:

Hi Glenn! I don’t mind you boycotting France so long you let us not boycotting the United States. If I can shop at Lands’End and Amazon, if I can receive the last Dick’s pick from Grateful Dead Records, if you let me visit Bryce Canyon and Monument Valley with my nefews next winter, you can write everything and more about France, I really don’t care. I hope one day that France can become the 51st state of the Union, but I don’t think you would be really pleased….The United States own many places in France: graveyards. Could we never forget that.

How utterly disarming!
