the one who invented this meme must be either French or partial to the French I guess - or Italian :-) They probably only thought of the greatest works of art.
We have more or less the same answers. Thanks for sharing! :-)
Well you still have a lot to do.
:) Glad you took this one. It's fun to learn about others through these memes.
Who was the famous person you met?
Vesper,
They probably only thought of the greatest works of art.
That's a good insight, but why does one think the greatest pieces of art are either in Italy or in France? What about Stonehenge? Okay, I'm partial to that, although visiting Stonehenge is yet to come to me.
Ropi,
if you mean I still have to 'be involved in a law suit', or to 'be fired from a job', 'brake a bone' or 'be on a speeding motorcycle', than I'd be gladly die without these :D
Aine,
These are fun, yes. The famous person was a Hungarian actor.
You're absolutely right. What about the pyramids, both Egyptian and Central American, what about all that is Asia?...
Baranta sounds very, very interesting! Could you post on this one day? I can't picture the combination you describe.
I'm having a hard time reading your blog -- half the text ends up on the black bar on the left. Is it just me?
Where are you? We miss you!
Vesper,
perhaps these gems'll appear in a next meme...
Chris,
to be honest I don't go very often these weeks to those Baranta lessons. The gym is unheated....
But I will definitely write a post about it sometime ...
And yes, I may appear as absent these weeks. I'm sorry for that and I miss bloogging.
I miss writing and reading, too.
Anniina,
unfortunately so...I don't know the reason, but I'm glad you are here.
