How are you planning to celebrate Bastille Day (er, 14 juillet)? Me, I think a glass of something French is in order, along with a big raspberry for Margaret Thatcher for once remarking of the French: “who can trust a people who celebrate, as their national event, a jailbreak?”

Wonder if we can get a chorus of La Marseillaise going tonight at Berkman. That would be something worth podcasting... At the least, take a second to download the first verse from this comprehensive La Marseillaise site.
