France Visit Email work there???

Fitz · #1 (**permalink**) 07-21-2005, 09:33 PM

Going to France soon. I know we get emails from down under, England etc but can you sit over there, have a cup of coffee in Paris and send an email back here to whoever on a regular lap top. I am assuming a place would be wireless or something. I don't want to hook up and have to spend $$$$ waiting for it to be sent.

Any French cobra people out there?? I mean over there?? Any cobra members been over there and have email experiance back and forth. Let me know or I guess I will just buy a phone

over there to use or a phone card.

Yes, I'm sure you can e-mail from France- but you have to do it in a very rude manner!

And, of course, act VERY superior while doing it!
We'll be watching for your reports.

Also Fitz if you're travelling to France Be advised that the French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from Run to Hide. The only two higher levels in France are Surrender and Collaborate. The rise was precipitated by a recent fire which destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively paralyzing their military.

Take Care!

You guys are a riot......I can not remember seeing anything on the forum from france. I am taking Bill O'Riley with me.....

Fitz -
I think the main reason for the lack of French members is that it is virtually impossible to register a 'kit built' car in France. There are, I think, a few original Cobras in various collections and the only reason that they are allowed on French roads is because they are 'manufactured, and homologated vehicles.

Yeah! - you're right - the French do whine a lot.

Wi-Fi hotspots are numerous in the cities, ask locally. Europeans who do a
lot of messaging, especially out in the
countryside use Blackberries. Cellular
coverage is excellant in France, so a GSM
Blackberry will work anywhere.

FYI Post script: the people out of Paris were great. Historical stuff was very interesting. Wine was absolutely abundant. Normandy was very moving. American women are much better. Cars are all small and park bumper to bumper.
It is the governments that screw everything up as usual. France will get theres more and more with their liberal ways. They have giving away everything to the brat younger idiots.
Their attitude about americans is very mixed. The people love us, especially those that know anything about America.
The liberal folk think if it were not for the Russians Normandy would have failed big time (probably right). Of course they were all be speaking German too.

FTF!!! (Those are the correct colors for their flag by the way) When is the last time they won a war without any allies??? Napoleon doesn't count, since he lost in the end TWICE!

They will only be our friends when the Germans invade them again. Hopefully soon.

Cheers!

Very nice. Once again the classic imbecile American raises his head. If you hate French things so much , why don't you start a campain to return the Statue of Liberty to them? Why don't you erase the fact that America would not even exist without the Napoleonic wars to distract the English? Why don't you point out how stupid they were not to engage in the heroic Iraq campaign? Why don't you stop drinking pastuerized milk? What a bigoted moron you are., save your postings for your friends at the John Birch Society. Idiot.

You tell'em Mul! Dave just hasn't tasted a good red wine lately. Nothing like sitting on a Europopia side walk and sipping red wine looking at all the people, historical stuff.

Who came to America off the east coast in the American Revolution to shoot a few black balls for George and Gate's party we were engaged in....just a thought. It wasn't Mary Magaline. Remember Governments mess things up not the people.

Steve (Mulv),

Please note the

in my post.

I mean, c'mon, they invented boullibase, didn't they????

By the way sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me.

Cheers!
