2. Does he still live in Paris?
I know he was living there for several years. Maybe you could go and look him up. :-)

5. Me talk Pretty is genius

It must be listened to rather than read of course. If anyone has ever taken any language course they can relate to it. I heard it years ago and I still remember it.

God the part explaining the rabbit of easter with the chocolate? Genius Genius Genius.
