Online Only: Excuse my French

By Matt Peyton · Tuesday, March 6,2007 12 a.m.

Amid the always-busy week leading up to spring break, it has dawned on me that I don’t speak a lick of French. Usually this wouldn’t be a problem (it also occurred to me that I don’t speak Arabic), except I’m going to Paris for spring break.
