À La Recherche du Temps Trouvé
My heart was gladdened tonight when I discovered this French AOL search site. Yes, that’s right — the French are using America Online.
How can they stand it? Quelle indignité!
Actually, you’ll notice that l’Amerique does not appear on the page, just the abbreviation AOL. A few English words creep in here and there — the dreadful but unavoidable “shopping”, for instance — but, at a glance, you wouldn’t notice that the page had been contaminated by Anglo-Saxon culture.
So, by all means, recherchez jusqu’à ce que les vaches viennent à la maison!
