"Looking foolish does the spirit good. The need not to look foolish is one of youth's many burdens; as we get older we are exempted from more and more, and float upward in our heedlessness, singing Gratia Dei sum quod sum." (John Updike)

Illustration Friday : [You're] Welcome
Le 1er mai en Strasbourg (Alsace, France).
The telephone conversation included a "Merci" and "C'etais un plaisir"--a flowery stand-in for You're welcome. The chipper cafe waitress answered "C'est rien"--a more casual You're welcome.
