Last week I had the opportunity to observe a miracle in the vicinity of Notre Dame cathedral! A group of about fifteen "deaf and mute" signature sheet kids were all arguing quite vocally.

Of course, I also said "non!" or "allez-vous en" to several of them whilst looking away, and they understood me just fine.

The "found ring" scam is also surprisingly alive and well; it is so old.

corky, if your niece wants to do something good with her money and get it back, have her check out Kiva - she can even join the FlyerTalk lending team! (See my signature...)
