up in there, on page 4. And our names are spelled right, and match our photo, but that is where it ends - NOTHING she says we said, we actually said. We are NOT from France, we were NOT buying silk scarves, and we do NOT have GPS on our cell phones! So, my faith in the paper dropped a few notches. We have long known, tho, that what is in quotation marks here is a loose interpretation, and not an actual quote - we figured this out when they would quote Americans using words and phrases that no American would ever use! It also baffles me that they cannot tell the difference between an American accent and a British accent and a German or Dutch accent. I mean, really, we sound NOTHING alike! (oh yeah, we don't know anything about Sector 42, but we don't care either! and I think "besotted" is a strong word.)
But still, it was kinda fun to be in the paper!

Really enjoy the posts. Too bad there aren't more comments but it's not reflection on your entries. Keep them coming.
Sorry, that should read "no reflection." I had to type it a few times before I could get it to post. This one also. Wonder what I'm doing wrong.
This was hilarious. We all complain about bias in the U.S press (especially during an election year) but at least it's not OBVIOUSLY fiction. Besotted, indeed.
