What do French Men Want?


It is not that we are insensitive to their needs, but TWB has never really wondered what French men want.

But, an alert female reader who was doing some research -for what we did not ask- has informed us of the answer anyway. Or, at least the answer according to Google.

Surprisingly, it turns out that Google thinks that what French men want is Tanker War Blog. If you type in Google search what do French men want (without quotes) the first entry out of 1,860,000 sites is Tanker War Blog. Specifically this post another contributer did about a question a French Air Force officer ask SecDef Gates during a speech.

As you can see below the number two site is AmericanGirlsAreEasy.com while number three is a blog post on why French men wear Speedos.

To be honest though, beyond desiring the Air Force tanker contract, none of us at Tanker War Blog have any idea what French men want. Sorry ladies.

AmericanGirlsAreEasy says picking one up will not be a problem. But, if Sarkozy is any indication, before the French man of your dreams pops the question you will have have to be skinnier, better looking, and taller than him. Being a former model and a heiress is preferred, but not required.

News Team 4 Special Report


Please visit TAnchorman's site where Brian Fantana has an investigative report on location in Dresden Germany about EADS's first tanker.

Also, we are sorry to announce that the News Team 4 did not win the CNBC Fake Blog contest. That high honor went to Fake Angelo Mozilo.

In fact, News Team 4 was disqualified as the WTO ruled late in the completion that TAnchorman had received an illegal wardrobe subsidy from Armani to develop his next generation leisure suit.

We would like to publicly thank Jane Wells for nominating the team as a finalist and apologize profusely for TAnchorman's gross breach of ethics.

Gen. McNabb was right, everyone should just calm down before this gets out of hand again.
