Re: Fantastic.
Ah. "Comme ci, comme ca" just means "So-so".
"Oh, la la" is simply an expression of surprise or delight, similar to "Oh my!" or "Well, dog my cats!"

Re: Ladies and gentlemen our US... uh... Presidents?
No problem, Tawm. Everyone's brain works differently. I'm not expecting everyone to remember everything, that'd be silly. ;) I'm not fantastic with numbers, but I did a diploma in software and hardware engineering, which involved a lot of complex numbers (including being able to calculate in binary ...

Re: Fantastic.
*shrug* Yes, the subtitles helped. But words like "oh la la" and "comme ci comme ca" hardly need translating, right?

Re: When Puppets Get Mugged.
Hold on ... if a puppet gets mugged - wouldn't that be a muppet? ;) But yes, it's very funny. (And if the mugger took off his balaclava and take Diego's phone, why didn't Diego snatch the gun and hold up the mugger to get his phone back? Or start yelling "Help! Police!") :D OK, logic overload ... th...
