Default Paris is burning....

ANY EXCUSE TO DUST THIS OLD ONE OFF IS TO BE APPLAUDED !

Be aware that the French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "Run" to "Hide". The only two higher levels in France are "Surrender" and "Collaborate". The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively paralyzing their military capability.

It's not only the French that are on a heightened level of alert, The

Italians have increased their alert level from "Shout loudly and excitedly" to "Elaborate military posturing". Two more levels remain, "Ineffective combat operations" and "Change sides".

The Germans also increased their alert state from "Disdainful arrogance" to "Dress in uniform and sing marching songs". They have two higher levels, "Invade a neighbour" and "Lose".

Seeing this reaction in continental Europe the Americans have gone from "Isolationism" to "Find somewhere else in the Middle East ripe for regime change". Their remaining higher alert states are "Take on the world" and "Ask the British for help".

Finally here in GB we've gone from "Pretend nothing's happening" to "Make another cup of tea".
