Hi everyone
don't forget that a wonder woman is a woman who works wonders (fait des miracles) while to wonder is to feel doubt(se demander)

Muriel, if you don't know this, take a look at the proninciations of the words "wonder" and "wander"... I mean that for a French person, it's easy to make a mistake (roughly, wonder is pronounced wander while wander is pronounced wonder).

GREAT TRUTHS...
THAT LITTLE CHILDREN HAVE LEARNED
1) No matter how hard you try, you can't baptize cats.
2) When your Mom is mad at your Dad, don't let her brush your hair.
3) If your sister hits you, don't hit her back. They always catch the second person.
4) Never ask your 3-year old brother to hold a tomato.
5) You can't trust dogs to watch your food.
6) Don't sneeze when someone is cutting your hair.
7) Never hold a Dust-Buster and a cat at the same time.
Cool You can't hide a piece of broccoli in a glass of milk.
9) Don't wear polka-dot underwear under white shorts.
10) The best place to be when you're sad is Grandpa's lap.
GREAT TRUTHS...
THAT ADULTS HAVE LEARNED
1) Raising teenagers is like nailing Jell-O to a tree.
2) Wrinkles don't hurt.
3) Families are like fudge...mostly sweet, with a few nuts.
4) Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground.
5) Laughing is good exercise. It's like jogging on the inside.
6) Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy.
GREAT TRUTHS...
ABOUT GROWING OLD
1) Growing up is mandatory; growing old is optional.
2) Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.
3) When you fall down, you wonder what else you can do while you're down there.
4) You're getting old when you get the same sensation from a rocking chair that you once got from a roller coaster.
5) It's frustrating when you know all the answers but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.
6) Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.
7) Wisdom comes with age, but sometimes age comes alone.

...mostly sweet, with a few nuts.

"Fudge" has several meanings.
In the food domain, there're two main meanings: "caramels mous" and (US) "sauce au chocolat"; there're also other meanings which are very different.
Here, it's the American meaning.

Yes Muriel.
In French, a bad check is made of wood while it's in rubber in English.
A check without the necessary credit is a "bad check".

To bounce is an interesting verb, used more than in French.
Among other uses...
- to bounce a baby on one's knees
- to bounce a check
- to bounce sb into sth/into doing sth
- to bounce a letter to its sender
- the bouncer is in charge of checking people at the entrance of a nightclub
- to get the bounce means to be fired (from a company)
