c'est so paris

mood: pretty happy.
state i'm in: commence week 26... life goes on.
tune: eurythmics "there must be an angel (playing with my heart)".


'enjoy rugby in the capital love' is the advertising campaign being used to lure the brits across the channel for the rugby world cup in paris. it is apparently an attempt to use the world cup with some unconventional humour to advertise the fact that "paris is also the capital of humour," or so the line goes from parisian tourism website 'c'est so paris'. rugby in france has had previous brushes with homoerotocism, most notably the 'deux du stade' series of calenders produced by parisian rugby team 'stade francais', so this campaign doesn't come as any great surprise. it is still attracting a lot of interest worldwide, however.

if this is what rugby is like in the capital of love, then i feel a little let down by rugby in the capital of queens-land...
