Ho seguito il consiglio di un amico (oltre che mio ex capo) ed ho comprato “A morte le vacche sacre”, un libro scritto a sei mani da Beau Fraser, David Bernstein e Bill Schwab, tre pubblicitari americani dell’agenzia The Gate Worldwide, che ha sedi a New York, Londra, Hong Kong, Singapore e Shanghai.

Il playBoy ed il prete
Il noto playboy del paesino, passando davanti alla chiesa di piazza, vede il parroco davanti al portone.
Si avvicina e fa: "Don Giovanni, si dice in giro che il suo nome sia tutto un programma e mai un nome sia stato più azzeccato"
Il prete, senza sconvolgersi più di tanto e con le mani raccolte, risponde: "Si fa quel che si può figliolo&q
That huge white basilic at the north of Paris that you can see from so many places in town is Sacre Coeur with its white and islamic look, in the Montmartre area, a charming and nice looking church which is one of the places unthinkable to miss... It's a good thing that is situated close to "Place du Tertre" (Montmartre) so with a unique visit you can see all.
French President Nicholas Sarkozy has a given a new meaning to being sworn into office.The President turned the air blue after a man at an agricultural fair refused to shake his hand.In an interview with the newspaper 'The Parisien' Sarkozy said he should have held his tongue but stopped short of making an apology.The paper has since claimed that it was in fact Sarkozy's office that had added the insult onto the film footage they posted on their website.Well that's what they could've sworn.Article taken from www.stuartjamesross.blogspot.com on 27/2/08.
This Basilique du Sacre-Coeur is located on the highest point of Paris, the butte Montmartre. Inside this Basilica you can see the beautiful painted dome. You can also go in the Dome and have a great view on the city.
A and I went to Montmartre. My aim was to visit some crazy little museums and NOT go to Sacré-Coeur. Not that I don't appreciate Sacré-Coeur, but I wanted to prove that there was more to Montmartre than that beautiful landmark, whose best part, anyway, is seeing it from all over Paris. As I was studying the map, I saw the big Montmarte Cemetery (Antoine Carême is buried there). Near it is little cemetery called Cimetière St-Vincent. That was our starting point. And because we went to the Lamarck-Caulaincourt metro stop, we avoided a major part of the massive hill in Montmartre. We did have some hilly moments and we still had to walk DOWN, but we avoided the worst part. Here's where we walked to get to the cemetery. Finding the cemetery was not easy. But after walking ALL the way around its tall stone walls, we found the entrance. Is it weird to take pictures of a cemetery? Skip them if it gives you the willies. I thought parts were very interesting. On the actual stones and tombs
I owe a very big thanks to loyal Bugs and Cranks reader Matt Karasic, for sending along what can only be described as a cutting edge and potentially headline-making video. Given the media circus surrounding Zinedine Zidane's headbutt of Marco Mazeratti in the World Cup final last summer, I find it remarkable that this underground footage of a French national soccer team training drill didn't get
