I was poking today at the pop music section at my public library, and right at the front of the bin, what do I see, but Gourmandises! It was a surprise because I had checked last year in May and they didn't have it. I don't recall requesting a purchase order, but anyway, they bought it (Sept. 22, 2007 was when they actually got it; and they said they had a buyer who arranges these things). Interesting!

That is very surprising and cool. :) I would have never thought, which city was this in?

How random was that when you saw it? I bet that made your day. So did you rented it? lol.

My cousin said that his favorite record store in California orders all of Alizée's CDs weekly, and they are always sold out!

This is just....excellent...

I'm jealous: we don't have any French media in my region.

Nobody's stopping you, Europe is just a trans-Atlantic flight away. Besides, I don't think you'd want to leave when you get here. :p

I know!!! I was in France two years ago, and I'm going again next month! The first trip was the greatest experience of my life, and I live for the day when I'll return. What's best is that it's a community based exchange program, so I will go back to a city I've been to, and stay with someone I know! It will all be familiar, like going home...

You'd love it anywhere really, it's not like the USA where they have their embarrassing states, every country in Europe is a little bit special (except Serbia maybe). I've been to France three times, I was raised learning three languages (English, Indonesian, Farsi), so accents are of no problem to me, it is lovely there, I could never forget Arc de Triomphe or the Eiffel, next time I go there I am planning to stay there for half a year or so, perhaps along the 9th Arrondissment, after much deliberation and study of a certain Alizée picture, I found out Alizée and Jérémy live in the 9th Arrondissement. :D

You might want to check out Stockholm, Oslo, Lisbon, Madrid, Barcelona, Milan, Brussels, Breya, Vienna, Dublin, and Edinburgh as well, i've been to them all and each experience is lovely in the most extremest of ways.

No, Serbia is cool. My cousin is married to a wonderful chef from there.

I would adore going to all of those places, and not just Europe but the rest of the world too.

Not that I'm offended, but what are the states embarrassing?

They have some weird states, I should have put it in that wording. I mean certainly there are certain states in the USA that are just plain odd, like Rhode Island, cmon, that thing could be part of another state, it's barely the length of traveling from London to Pompey.

Hahaha. Well, the organization of states is incidental, but them East coast states are all very unique because of their founding and history: it's lasted until today.

I was hoping you'd say something more like Arkansas: the state without a personality.
