How cool is that to be right under the pyramid! That's got to generate some positive power.

Pomme.

If it weren't for the signage in French, you would not know you were in France. Still it is very zen like in its look and feel.

Les fangirls MAC sont fous. L'Apple Store chez le Louvre? C'est drôle. Le Zune est un pièce d'art, pas un I-Pod.

Your potential. Our passion.™

ZT:

One of your better efforts of late, in English or in French.

Translated by the Mac Dashboard Translation widget:

The fangirls MAC are insane. Apple Store at Louvre? It is funny. Zune is a part of art, not I-Pod.

@ZT

BobWillsIsStillTheKing…

I think Zune Tang® is well aware what "zune" means in French (or is it only French Canadian?) slang. Something tells me…hmm…

@ZT:

It should be "Les fangirls MAC (sic) sont folles." Cependant, je suis impressionné.
