Nicknames for Safeways in Washington, DC
notthatkindagay:
Subterranean Safeway — Underneath the Watergate. I think this may also be known as the:

EMBEDDING DISABLED BY REQUEST. :(

Mélodie Bilodeau, une internaute de Victoriaville, vient de mettre en ligne un vidéo de Coeur de Pirate jouant cette fameuse reprise d’”Étienne D’Août” de Malajube, mais MÉLODIE BILODEAU DE VICTORIAVILLE N’EST PAS ASSEZ COOL POUR PERMETTRE AUX BLOGUEURS DE METTRE SON VIDÉO EN LIGNE. PAS COOL, BILODEAU! PAS COOL!

– New Orleans Sees an Opportunity to Improve on Its Past - NYTimes.com
atencio:
Just when you think American television is finally catching up to the rest of the world, along comes a series like France’s X Femmes. The show’s episodes are all short erotic films featuring frank depictions of modern sex, and all of them are written and directed exclusively by women. Oh, and it just so happens one of those women filmmakers in the show’s first season was Mélanie Laurent,...

In Alberta, the dirty underwear is piling up. More Quebeckers sleep naked than anywhere else in the country. On the Prairies, you’re more likely to get dumped in a bar. The average Canadian spends 7.7 minutes in the shower, and parents are more tempted than their childless friends to touch fresh cement.
Four in 10 Atlantic Canadians believe the world will end with a Battle of...

Dimanche dernier, face au fleuve Saint-Laurent, de jeunes bambins à la coordination encore approximative semblaient bien heureux de danser sur l’herbe du parc des Ursulines à Trois-Rivières. Le premier arrêt de la tournée du Piknic électronik et Bande à part s’avère, d’emblée, remplir sa mission première: ouvrir les horizons des jeunes et moins jeunes à un style musical trop...

They are not Canadians!
Geographically peculiar finding: Of all those asked—some 12,500 recent travelers from a dozen countries—only Canadians went with sex more often than sleep.
