Pictures from Paris. I took these last year.

Saint_Roche_Church_-_Paris,_France_-_October,_2006_-_001a.jpg

Random church on a back street. There were lots of junkies passed out on the steps, and very aggressive panhandlers.

You know that big Joan of Arc statue you've seen in New Orleans that the French gave to the city as a gift? Here's her big sister.

Wow, Paris seems really overrated.

Well, I was in Paris on work, so I didn't get to visit all of the best parts, and I was only there for about six hours.

Paris is a lot like New York -- Most of it's OK. There are a lot of crappy areas. There are a lot of nice areas. But you have to go at least once in your life to experience it for yourself.
