This morning, Londoners erupted in jubilation in Trafalgar Square upon hearing the announcement that they had won the bid to host the summer Olympics for an historic third time. Paris was heavily favored but their cause could not have been helped by President Jacque Chirac’s surly, condescending, and unsportsmanlike conduct on the eve of the selection – which was punctuated by the following gaullic statement about his English competitors:
You can’t trust people who cook as badly as that….After Finland, it’s the country with the worst food….And, and the only thing the English have contributed to European Agriculture is Mad Cow!
Well, bon appétit to Chirac and all of France as they try to digest this latest international humiliation….
Ahhh, Schadenfreude!!!
