French Kerguelen Islands (AP): Today it was announced that by a sheer accident, God (photo above) was found on Kerguelen by a team of French researchers. Also known as “Desolation Island” few explorers have visited this cold and windy island in the southern Indian Ocean. Last month while studying the indigenous, edible Kerguelen cabbage a team of researchers from the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Toulouse stumbled upon a small unmarked temple and discovered God floating above a tiered rock pedestal. When asked by reporters if they could prove it was really God, the team leader Doctor J. G. Verne stated “Once we entered the temple God immediately spoke to us, “What took you so long? I have been waiting here forever!” Taken back, we asked if it was really-real or just an uber-cool 3-D hologram. “I am GOD, the one all mankind seeks. I am GOD the creator of the universe.” God then told us the meaning of life! After hearing that there was no doubt in our minds that we had really found God. When asked by the press to talk more about the meaning of life and other great mysteries like why some people are gay, Doctor Verne stated that all the team’s transcripts would be published in Les Humains Associés after he returns from his planned family vacation at Walt Disney World.

Lyrics to Les Petits Boudins :
Dans mon agenda
Quand j’en pique un
Un petit boudin
Je l’met sous mon bras
Jusqu’au matin
Ce petit boudin
C’est bon pour c’que j’ai
Ça me fait du bien
Les petits boudins
C’est facile et ça
N’engage à rien
Les petits boudins
Au départ c’est rien
Qu’une petite gourde
Un petit boudin
Il suffit d’un rien
Et ça devient
Un petit boudin
Ça n’sait pas dire non
C’est ça qu’j'aime bien
Chez les p’tits boudins
Ça n’pose pas d’questions
Ça n’mange pas d’pain
Les petits boudins
Mais il n’y a pas dans mon calepin
Que des p’tits boudins
Il y a surtout toi, toi qui n’as rien
D’un petit boudin
T’as rien de commun
Avec les petits boudins

PARIS—With talks collapsing at the 11th hour, Franco-American relations hit an all-time low Monday, casting the future of Spaghetti-Os-brand canned pasta in serious doubt.
Thus far, three months of negotiations have yielded bitter fruit,” French minister of foods Guy Charpentier said. “Despite concessionary offers from both sides, no acceptable compromise has been reached on a number of key issues, including sauce tanginess, sodium levels, and pasta-ring size. As a result, the sort of friendly Franco-American partnership necessary to produce the neat, round spaghetti one can eat with a spoon may no longer be possible.”
In a stopgap attempt to alleviate the crisis, Italian minister of cuisine Hector Boyardee offered the Franco-American alliance an emergency airlift of “ABCs & 123s”-brand pre-cooked pasta. French officials declined the offer, however, due to their American counterparts’ insistence on pronouncing “123s” “one, two, threes” rather than “un, deux, troises.” In a recent speech to European convenience-food authorities, French president Jacques Chirac also preemptively rejected any Italian offer of pasta shaped like Spider-Man™.
Point of gnome return
A French police station has been stuck with a room of homeless garden gnomes after a “gnome return day” – a fresh bid to trace their owners – failed. Only a trickle of people showed up for yesterday’s “gnome return day” at the police station in Saint-Die-des-Vosges, near the eastern city of Strasbourg, and only one person was reunited with their stolen gnome, police said.
Some 75 kidnapped gnomes were recovered in 2001 after a group called the Garden Gnome Liberation Front released them, leaving them on the steps of the Saint-Die-des-Vosges cathedral. Police are yet to reunite 43 of the gnomes with their owners.
“In wanting to set them free, the Liberation Front has virtually imprisoned them,” policeman Sylvain Brucker said, adding that the local prosecutor could decide to sell the kitsch garden ornaments in a police auction. “Perhaps there are people with gardens who would like to adopt them,” he said.
Laura Bush flees to France, plans to marry Chirac
Paris — First Lady Laura Bush has escaped from the US and plans to marry French President Jacques Chirac, whom she has stayed in contact with via email since their first meeting two years ago. Her planned five-day trip to Paris and Moscow became an appealing opportunity to start a new life after months of growing discontent with American policy, a source said. “I love French food and French wine, and of course, Jacques is an amazing lover,” said Bush.
French government’s continued belief in “global warming” under fire for heat wave deaths
PARIS — Controversy over France’s stubborn belief in the existence of “global warming” grew today as a high-ranking deputy admitted that excessive heat and the deaths caused by it could have been avoided if the French government didn’t cling to “unscientific hoaxes regarding the weather.”
Christian Estrosi of the ruling UMP party blamed the heat wave crisis on “phony experts around the world who promote ‘global warming’” on Friday. “It’s not our citizens’ fault that the unproven idea of ‘global warming’ is being forced on them by so-called scientists,” Estrosi said after the French health ministry reported that up to 3,000 have died in recent weeks in France as a result of the heat.
U.S. officials at the Environmental Protection Agency sided with Estrosi’s position, and claimed that “the reason you don’t see these kind of heat-related emergencies in the U.S. is due to our official position that ‘global warming’ needs more research.” Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin has come under increased criticism for failure to act quickly to deal with the catastrophe. Critics have charged that he should have renounced “global warming” once it was clear that France was engulfed in a crisis.
