Or the ultigravitability, even. Non?
indeed sir
That's ultimately light.
light and quiet-
this reminds me of a parachute also symbolic form of ultimate gravity
Light in the clouds - strange lights
leaves you thinking about light in the sky
light in your heart
clouds of use to wrap up your tears
Very nice Filo, deceptively simple mm?
Guitou, do you remember who said "La gravité est le privilège des imbéciles"? Was it Pierre Desproges or was he only quoting some president of the 4th republic?
Offie,
No idea, what Desgropes said about gravite but long ago it was Montesquieu who wrote:"la gravite c'est le bonheur des imbeciles"
he was such an hypocrite boring dude
filo your 10 words are lighter and bigger than 10 words...
reminds me opf the old JL song:
"the navy gets the gravitas tea and
the army gets the being and nothingness"
or similar...

By the way, what's the French for "double entendre"?
last line hears the ground
looming up and sees my life
flashing before me
Nice one, Henry...
Go on then Offie, what is the French for 'double entendre'?
isn't it encore une fois cheri?
that's a wild and wacky clip Doctor, for sure it is
this was supposed to be a counterpoint to the unbearable lightness of being;
Muss es sein? Es muss sein!
always thought 'entendre' was french; wonder if misunderstood much more...
ah. yes file. had my comment on an open screen since before you posted... immediately thought of 'the unbearable lightness' upon first reading. thank you.
double entendre, here in mougins it's a cocktail.
at the risque of being revealed as one prone to mired in the banal, the hackneyed, and the sleazy language underbelly of the duple intendre, (forced through a filter of incorrect spelling and overstated intent - still mired in schoolyard post-french lesson mispronunciations)
and bearing in mind, as Marcela points out, that it is already de francais,
I cannot shake off the memory of my one and only invitation to paris which was a french letter with 'come' in it... serruptitiously placed inside my schoolbag so long ago...
but "les feaux pas de deux of gay paris!!??" scribbled in red over the top of my last french paper by a distressed tutor is the greater and more shameful memory and I never venture there now...
I even laugh at:
Eddie: Hang on, hang on hang on hang on. I've got your real present here.
Richie: It's a piece of paper. It is a small piece of paper.
Eddie: Read it.
Richie: "Madame Swish, three-thirty." Oh! Eddie! You haven't? Oh, what a pal you are. "Madame Swish". Ooh-err! Hohh, God, at last I'm really going to do it. And on my birthday as well! Ohhhggh, I wonder what she's like?
Eddie: She's a dead cert mate, a real stayer.
Richie:Really?
Eddie:Yeah, she'll come first.
Richie: What, before me? Good grief, that's quick. So she'll think I'm
great! Oh, what a pal you are! And it's all paid for?
Eddie: Um, not exactly, I need a tenner.
Richie: A tenner. Right. That's quite cheap, isn't it?
Eddie: Er, well, no, in that case it's a tenner each way.
Richie: Well, how many ways are there?
Eddie: Well, you'll come first, second or third, won't you?
Richie: Well how many people are going to be there?
Eddie: Well, a few thousand.
Richie: What?
Eddie: Well it's Kempton.
Richie:Kempton? I can't get down to Kempton by three-thirty!
Eddie: You don't have to mate, it'll be on the telly!
Richie: They're going to televise it? Well what if my auntie's watching?
Eddie: Well what's illegal about betting on a horse?
Richie: A horse?
Eddie: Yeah.
Richie: Madame Swish is, is, is a horse?
Eddie: Yeah! Well what did you think it was?
Richie: Oh no, nothing, nothing. Just checking.
Eddie:I have given you a red hot tip.
Richie: (looks at his crotch) I know, and there's nothing I can do about it now, is there!
... and the Doc has just Shot his [other] Stuff all over the place!! (apologies sensitive readers)
made me laugh too DS but then so did Frankie Howard; 'Titter ye not!'
Doc,
Madame Swish is a horse, she and monsieur Swich have a lot of petits
swish.
Petit Swish? Petit Swish?!!? Oh dear, Guitou, you've just fallen through the floor of the Bi-lingual Pun League standings. Incredible. gg would be proud of you.
