Harvard, Yale, Oxford and the others have scads of French books in their libraries. What is France's problem?

The french are fortunate to not be googling in German.

If these french, pi$$ drinking, back stabbing, cheese eating surrender monkeys think this way, let THEM build their own repository of online books.

Google is a good idea but much abused. When a kid goes to look up information on drugs, he gets 10,000 websites devoted to why marijuana is good for you and if you try to look up thermodynamics, you get all the Creationists' propaganda sites.

Imagine all those books to read for free, wonderful.

Blahahahaha!




Did you mean: french military defeats

Your search - french military victories - did not match any documents.



You are to much. Too much of a good thing.

Has the french language EVER done anything for the world? Language of diplomacy? HA! more like language of deception!

Even now fewer and fewer high schools provide french.

The sooner french dies as a culture and language the better for the world.

Apparently, there is no available labor for the Frenchies to participate in this program due to the government mandated 35 hour work week. Jump on the bus, Pierre or get out of the way.

Yes, it is a good site, they have a few of the old household books, good for learning about what is needed to survive without a grocery store that is open. (under non-fiction)
