Viva La France!

Posted on 09:07 by Unknown
This year Austin, Sergio and I will be attending the X-Plane 09 Conference this year, near Paris. I am excited by the turn-out - a number of people in the X-Plane community who all do great work will be there, in some cases meeting each other in person for the first time. And there will be cheese!

The conference is officially French, and I must admit, I don't speak a word of the stuff. Fortunately, my beautiful and very patient wife will be there, and she speaks French quite well. So I have asked her to translate the rest of this blog post - a greeting to my French readers.
Bonjour. Ecoutez: Ben croit que je traduis le reste de son article sur ce blog, mais il ne parle pas du tout le français. Lorsqu'on était à Cannes, il a essayé d'apprendre à dire "Le chat est sur la chaise" - ce qui lui a fallu deux semaines! Donc il n'a aucune idée de ce que je suis en train d'écrire, et il ne saura pas non plus si traduis sa présentation correctement ou non.

Lorsqu'il commence sa présentation, je vous expliquerai toutes ses mauvaises habitudes. Est-ce que vous l'avez vu travailler? C'est tellement bizarre! D'habitude il ne porte pas de pantalon. Il s'asseoit devant l'ordinateur en buvant du café et en maudissant les "DSFs" - qu'est-ce que c'est? Je lui ai dit qu'il faut porter un pantalon à la conférence.
I am a very lucky man! I will see you all there.
