You don't have to apologise to anyone Ben, you are French Canadian and
should be proud of it!! The Americans sometimes forget that French Canadians
were the founding of Louisiana, when the Brits threw the Acadians out of the
Maritimes and shipped them all south to die. Shows them how tough Frenchies
are doesn't it?? Livin' in a bayou eatin' snakes. :-) Merde!!!!

Take care,

>>> then take your stinky self back to France<<<

he he he, that's funny! I guess that is good idea. So America will be free

of the dumb ass French Canadian. By the way, am not from France! But that

337 years ago.

 

This was just a joke man! An inside joke with many members that i personally

know.

Yes, i do hate most mechanics; they are crooks. But i DO NOT hate my very

nice English spoken neighbor. On the opposite!

When we were gone the past 2 month, my girlfriend friend had a problem with

her car, so she was charge 320$ (200USD) for a timing belt and some other

minor check!!!!!!!!!!!!! The dam? Belt cost 22$, I went back to the garage

with her and complain about the very high price of the job, they did refund

120$ CAD out of the 320, even then it was on the expensive side. That how I

like mechanics, or should I say crook!!!

 

Sorry, that was a stupid reply from me! (I will go in the corner of the room

and say; am sorry 200 times)

No need to be rude! (I will not go back to France, they are a lot worse than

me over there!!!! He he he)

 

The same day i did this reply i had another stupid e-mail by a stupid guys

about my poor written English (on my late travel across the USA and Mexico).

I have about one per month of those not so nice e-mail, it pisseeeees (he

he) me off when i read those so I get mad.

 

Yes, there is still some dumb ass out there, very easy to send a degrading

e-mail to a person; I would like to have that person in front of me! Am not

sure he would do so!

I some of you don't like what I write on my site, keep it to yourself, my

time is precious, I do that as a hobby and I don't need that kind of

comment. Many French folks don't understand why I do my site in 2 language

(mostly English). It's simply because it's English folks (especially from

here) that help me in the beginning of my VW days. This my way of saying

thanks, being grateful to the one who were very nice to me! (And reaching a

lot more people also!)

 

Don't worry, my French is as bad as my English, I have the same kind of

stupid e-mail in French!

 

So when i saw the original post, I misinterpreted the e-mail (and I had a

few French Canadian Beer!!!)

 

Ciao, Ben (My apologia to the list!)
