Before a continuation of my etc. topics, where part one was yesterday, did you know that the   American stock market yesterday reached an all-time high ?  Want details?    Watch this . Republicans complain that our economy is terrible, and so do many others.  Turns out the USA is doing well, with inflation and unemployment down, and a lot of good things up.  For example, people complain that  gasoline prices  are too high.  Nope.  A gallon is about 23 cents/gallon cheaper today than a year ago, and 39% lower than it was in June of 2022.  Just compare us with other countries around the world.  Watch  Fareed Zakaria  in a recent program. Next, let's go to France:   le scandale or tres chic?   The newly crowned Miss France, Eve Gilles, has a pixie cut, the only one in the contest with short hair.  The return of Leslie Caron and Audrey Hepburn? Sticking to France, did you know they have a new prime minister?   Gabriel Attal , at the age of 34, just was named as their youngest PM ever.
