Christie St. Martin
Christie St. Martin was born in Bermuda and educated at two Canadian universities that would prefer not to be mentioned here until she supplies them with healthy building endowments. An uber-geek and proud of it, she established herself as an Internet presence with All Things Christie, a blog that managed, with its quirky and unabashedly self-indulgent links to and commentary on whatever struck her fancy or her ire, to attract small legions of readers, fans and would-be stalkers. Her interests were as they are: myriad and eclectic, though certainly given to a particular fondness for the tech-y, the game-y and the kitschy. She is her own organizing principle, a kind of mad surfer on the crests of cultural lunacy, alternately acerbic, ecstatic and unintentionally insightful. She has since blogged for VH1's "Best Week Ever" and
Exhausticated.com, providing her usual melange of cheek, snark and occasional observation. Christie also contributes to LAT's
Hero Complex blog.

That's too bad about those kids.

Oh, come on! A group of young French people have fun with a preposterous American musical artifact and you say this proves no French people can't look tough? You mean ... unlike tough Michael Jackson, the famous tough-looking American? The street-fighting, plastic-surgeon employing, baby-juggling Michael Jackson?
My suggestion: stay away from French slums if you visit that country. You're obviously unequipped for survival.

Now you've done it, Christie. You offended Francophiles. Hopefully they're not as easily angered as massage therapists. Now you have to cross the slums of Paris off your list of places to visit on your next European vacation. C'est la vie
