Friday the 13th

This sounds like an horror movie, only unfortunately it was not a movie Friday night in Paris, and the blood was all too real.  Thanks to all the people who shared messages of support.  I posted a picture from the city of Paris billboard after the attacks.  It says: ” not even scared.  Together let’s be united against terrorism and extremism.  Let’s love music, drunkenness and joy” .  I love how drunkenness becomes a virtue…

The symbol of Paris is a boat with the slogan ” fluctuat nec mergitur”.  Translated from the latin it means ” its is battered by the waves but does not sink” .  This slogan seems very fitting today.  Paris survived Viking raids and the Nazi occupation.  History is on our side.

fluctuat pi`ece

Now you can understand this pun in Astérix:

fluctuat nec mergitur
