@Xenos: Regardez ici. Tournez les trois cadrans vers la gauche et tournez le cadran droit à 100 ou 200. Utilisez le bouton “Alt” avec le number pad et les nombres dans la table pour faire les accents.
Pour “à” j’ai utilisé “Alt+0224”
Pour “é” j’ai utilisé “Alt+0233”
Etc.

Okay this is extremely weird.
Usually I log in to Balloon Juice from France, and it’s in English. Now I come back to the States for a week, and Balloon Juice is in French.
You’re just trying to mess with my head, I know it.

@burnspbesq: And now, there’s another open thread just opened despite this one having only nine comments and being opened two hours ago.

I’m afraid that might be partly my fault. I got in the first comment on that second thread (this one too, but who’s counting?) and sort of hijacked it immediately.
But sooner or later, all threads become open threads, all conversations go off on tangents, and the “O/T” disclaimer becomes nothing more than a conventional nicety.
‘Swhy I keep coming here.

Oh, sorry. Bill E Pilgrim was talking about an actual Open Thread. I hadn’t seen it when I posted and thought he was talking about the France Update thread which so quickly became Open. Apologies for making it All About Me.
