Well in that case, pardon my French! So How's the VOs coming out your way? I'm reading a great VO book called "There's Money Where Your Mouth Is" I recommend it.

Saying it in anger is a curse against God, apparently. I tend to say it when I'm frustrated. The first time I said it in front of my Memere, though, I thought she was going to pass out. From what I got of the conversation (she only spoke French and me there, well, not much eh?) it's like taking the lord's name in vain. Lucky I didn't get my fess spanked, tabernacle!

That was funny. No pledge drives. No tote bags. Ha.
Greg, you made me laugh, too. Saying Tabernacle always got me in trouble growing up when I threw in the angry accent! But it's so fun to say when upset.

Very funny gig Piotr! Well done.The truth is we really hate when ever you pick up the cereal box (or anything else for that matter) to read the back and invariably start to read the French version. "TABERNAC!!!"
Other than that and minus 30 winters, it's really nice up here,eh?
