French Vagrants

I forgot to mention, I was in Montreal, Canada last month. I flew up there with the same girlfriend mentioned in the previous post to get her visa. For some reason, to get a visa to stay in the United States, you have to leave the United States and get the visa at a U.S. consulate in another country.


Montreal is a big city in Quebec, Canada where everybody insists on speaking French no matter how loudly you speak English to them. There were a fair amount of vagrants around, and I have to say; Homelessness, and mental illness with a French accent are adorable. They all seem like characters out of Les Misérables.

There's more I could say right now about Montreal - the casino, the Biodome, the "mountain", a thousand strip clubs, but frankly, when you live in New York City, every other city is .... not New York City.
