How do you say "serendipity" in French?

Heh... while watching Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit a few days ago, THEGIRL started mashing buttons on the remote control. Usually that's a recipe for trouble, but this time she somehow set the DVD audio to the French language option...

...and the kids thought it was hysterically funny! Watching those claymation figures run around, blurting out all this French jibber jabber (thank you for that phrase, Mr. T) just busted them up.

By the end of it THEBOY could say "bonjour" pretty well.

Dumb random thought:

Fish and chicken are generally pretty lean meats, as they come from pretty active critters I guess.

Beef is a lot fattier; it comes from a much more sedentary animal.

So why is pork fairly lean? What am I missing?

There's a "for sale" sign up on the crackhouse now.

The great Andy Sturmer (of Jellyfish) is reported to be working on the music for an upcoming Winnie the Pooh movie.

That's all well and good, but DAMN I'd like a proper album from that guy someday.

I'm rumbly in my tumbly. Snack time.
