[21:19] Farewell and adieu/French For Travellers
My brother, who's been staying with us this week, is leaving for Canadia and thence to France at some ungodly hour of the morning tomorrow. Much as I'd love to be up at 0400 to see him off, well, I won't be basically so: "Goodbye Jared! It's been lovely having you stay! Have a good trip, etc, etc, xOxOx"

He's not what you'd call a fluent French speaker; In fact he knows but one phrase with which to win the love, admiration and cheese of the French. I have already commited it to memory as it's boundless usefulness was apparent to me immediately. The magical phrase is: "Il pleut de la merde".
