Classifieds

The local FUSAC serves as a big classified ad magazine for anglophones and anglophiles in Paris. It can be a useful tool to the English speaker who is looking for an apartment (if he or she has a lot of extra cash), a hairdresser, a plumber, etc. In the spirit of things, the FUSAC staff tries to keep the magazine "fun," occasionally throwing in little tidbits of useless yet amusing information. This month's "fun" bit focused on classified ads taken from real newspapers. The most interesting include:

- Free puppies: 1/2 Cocker Spaniel 1/2 sneaky neighbor's dog

- Two wire mess butchering gloves: One 5-finger, one 3-finger, pair $15

- Georgia peaches, California grown - 89 cents/lb

- Nice parchute: never opened - used once
