I wish all from France, and all other who is enjoying all the great that France has to offer, a truly wonderful le quatorze juillet.

General Charles de Gaulle speaks to the people of Cherbourg from the balcony of the City Hall during his visit to the French port city on August 20, 1944.

Je ne comprend pas, pour quelle raison les Français vont feter [comment ça fait-il à mettre l'accent circonflexe avec un clavier italien?] le jour de l'anniversaire de mon épouse.
W la France, mais plus encore W Materazzi (Je suis un supporter de l'Inter de Milan).
