There was a small gathering of protesters outside the Palais de Justice this afternoon. I just happened to walk past as I was coming home from French class. And boy am I happy that I did! The place was teaming with hot french riot police, called the “Gendarmerie”.
Tall, slim, but not skinny, with riot armour that looked like it came from the set of Battlestar Gallactica: armadillo style shoulder and arm and leg protectors that looked positively robotic. Very “Borg” style, except without the pasty skin and the communal mind. They were all young and good looking, with chisled features, standing around, looking mencacing and yet non-chalant. So. very. sexy.
I was too scared to take out my camera and take pics of them (for fear that I would breach some national security law), so I tried to track down some pics on the net. Sadly, these dont do them justice (see below).
I recommend any woman or gay man to come to Paris if there’s a riot planned….
Hel-lo officers……

Oh officer? I dont think that tight butt cheek of yours is protected enough?

I’m a poor little Australian girl, lost in this big city called Paris. Can you take me to your house?

I love you, Kristie. You make me giggle so much.
I want to come to France and see hot riot Police, and of course a hot little lost Australian girl as well. You’d better start a riot!

… whereas the British riot police are not hot and some of them just beat the fuck out of everyone.
Can’t believe you make Star Trek references!!!! How not you!
Got your blog working again …. turns out Alex and I both had the same random issue with Darryn’s firewall – what are the odds!
