Ok, now I know why this whole French thing came about. Last night I was at a Party and I was talking to a guy that works at Nissan. He said the Design is French, but the parts are Japanese. He also said that the wiring is French. Basically it is French engineering, and knowing that the French are a Bunch of surrendering Frogs. Cant trust their Engineering!!!!


French President Jaques Chirac, tired of all of the anti-french jokes, since the start of the United States lead invasion of Iraq, has announced with great national pride that the super secret French Space Agency will send the first manned mission of three French astronauts to land, and walk on the Sun. President Chirac stated " This mission will be of historic important to the world, and restore France's rightful place in the history of the world" NASA space scientist's, stunned at the news, asked Mr. Chirac what technology they had developed to keep the astronauts from burning up long before they reached the Sun? The French President sniffed and replied " Don't be stupid, we are going at night".

...can never have too many French jokes! Very Nice! That S-Tune article was moderately interesting, seems to possibly be slower than the regular Z, do I have that wrong?
