JohnKerry brings James Taylor to Paris news conference to play "You've Got a Friend" - message to French after U.S no-shows last week

The only way it could be worse is if Mr. Kerry tried to sing it in French. He didn't do that, right?
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

T.O.M.

Are we talking about the actual singer, or do he bring a CD to play?   :lol:

It's no wonder so many around the world hate us. We've foisted on them James Taylor, Justin Bieber, Barbara Streisand and Barry Manilow, just to name a few. We'd do much better with the Barney "I Love You" song.

I almost snorted coffee out of my nose, that's frickin funny  :laugh:

and sad
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Watching a country run by those that despise it is a horrorshow.

Actually, can't we blame Canada for Justin Bieber?

I was just going to say the same thing, but he became popular in the US.
