Vive La France
Sometimes, I must admit, I like French-bashing as much as the next guy.
There are all sorts of reasons I need not outline here. Suffice it to say, I have no qualms with Groundkeeper Willie's description of them as "Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys." But then they go and do something like this.
They give out these Knights of Arts and Letters title to just about everyone it seems, but now they are giving it to deserving folks: Video game inventors.
The result is that Nintendo employee Shigeru Miyamoto has been honoured for his work which includes creating Donkey Kong AND Legend of Zelda AND Super Mario Bros. (but not the film)!
Also honoured were a couple of boring Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys.
