      She is Greek so...more brunette than anything.

      She knows her stuff...walking around Paris with her was a trip. She lived there for a while so seeing how much it has changed made her sad.

      Best way to describe the differences between me and her...I loved the Louvre and she prefers Muse de Orsay. I would rather see Hammurabi's Code than Impressionists ;^) She likes Versailles, I prefer a trip to Normandy.

        Nope. I can just barely handle Irish anger. A man must know his limitations.

        She's right about d'Orsay, too -- maybe the most beautiful museum in the world (I have not been to the Rijksmuseum, Hermitage, or Doge's Palace). My wife (then GF) broke her foot there but it was still worth it.

                  Yeah if I did that I would have had a hurt foot ;^)

                    And watch out for the 60 year old Japanese ladies with perms. They will stop for no one. It doesn't matter that they're only likely 5'4". They'll bowl straight ahead and use their low center of gravity to ram anyone in their way out of the way. They play to win.

                      cripes, I've been to all of those, the louvre, d'orsay, and the reina Sofia. Doge was incredible. I still remember that vividly.

                        True. Though at Versailles it was the 20 somethings and their selfie sticks. I legit had a panic attack cause it was hundreds of them walking backwards pushing me like a wave cause I dared stop to look at something or read the plaque! Most miserable experience I ever had on a trip.

                        Speaking of miserable experiences...

                          Sweep the leg. Those entitled ****s have absolutely no awareness of their surroundings. You can stack them like cordwood before they pull their ePacifiers from their butts, and even then they'll just yowl for mummy.

                          • Nice job, UKR.

                            KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russia’s Defense Ministry announced Saturday that it was pulling back troops from two areas in Ukraine’s eastern Kharkiv region where a Ukrainian counteroffensive has made significant advances in the past week.

                            The news came after days of apparent advances by Ukraine south of Kharkiv, the country’s second-largest city, in what could become the biggest battlefield success for Ukrainian forces since they thwarted a Russian attempt to seize the capital, Kyiv, at the start of the nearly seven-month war.
