I'm so in!! le petit prince is one of my favorite books of all time.
Dude. I have always HATED that you can french inhale. It's like this sick sick thing, but I can blow a serious smoke ring.
And walk down stairs.
So there.
Regaring the French list:
per our conversation this am, i am happy to report that i know every single one of those authors and their works (excepting simenon).
as far as the movies, i have only seen the Blue, Red & White series - Blue was the best of the three.
Poetry: you gave me a de Balzac set for a present one year (i know you don't remember, but that's because you pick things my color and beauty!- and they are gorgeous) i have never heard of any of the others, which means they are still alive, which means they are no good.

jas - do you own said book? we should definitely get together for a read!
crm - but can you blow a smoke ring while walking down the stairs? naturally Blue would be the best - it's Binoche after all.
you're absolutely right, i don't remember that gift - but, i am impressed with it even now.
nice. nice. just like listening to you glow frenchness in the face of that nice girl at the black bottle the yesternight. I miss listening to you ooze your dreams. It solidifies your glory and my adoration of the fact that you are my sister
