You might want to look back at that again and you'll see that YOU are the one that first popped into a thread about the CVMA and insulted both Americans in general and CVMA members.

Remember the part about "typical" Americans wearing a patch to tell the world they were in combat?

Great video.

I challenge everyone to put yourself in the Frenchmans shoes and retreat from bashing him here in this thread.

There sure are a lot of people on this forum with no sense of humor at all. Lighten up guys, And Frenchy, I'm sure you have never repeated a joke about Americans. These French jokes have been around forever. The more anyone reacts to a national or ethic joke the more it will be told. I'm going to Mcdonalds for a burger and some American fries.

I'll give the "lighten up" a shot.

And fries are not american, they are belgian. They have by far the best fries in the world. They will make your bowels explode in bits and pieces when combined with belgian beer (don't ask me how I know) but they're plain awesome.

I'll take your word for it on the Belgian fries. But they are gonna have to cool down the beer for me. Never understood warm beer. I was forced to drink it in Nam, Now it's gotta be cold for me.
